Iphone art?

What is a better gift to a hipster than something to remind them of their iphone AND something for that new table they lugged over from that Brooklyn green furniture store —
Coasters with the iphone home icons on it. While an interesting idea, at $62 for the set, it might be more [...]

Curbing text costs

The economy is not doing so great, so why not try to curb some extraneous costs…like texting.
texting is becoming the main method of communication these days. Why talk to someone for 15 minutes when it only takes a phrase by text. The problem with this is that texts costs add up incredibly quick, even though [...]

Happy Birthday $ents

生日快樂

Surprisingly it has been a year since I registered for this domain. I’m glad I have been able to keep up with it for the most part (sans the month or so of none)
With a year under me, I think at the very least my entries are those of more substance.
Traffic has grown consistent, [...]

DDCLAB x New Balance

Always a fan of reflective…well…anything. New Balance and DDCLAB recently came out with a new shoe which is fully reflective.

Here is the letter, including a personal F you to [...]

Club Exit circa 2000

I recently came across an old clip on Youtube. Old meaning people who still remember Exit old.
Yea. This was before the age of digital cameras and cellphone pictures. These were the years where trance ran rampant through college dorms and Zombie Nation was the best thing ever created.

Taking a look at the clip I [...]

Daft punk bearbrick release

I’m a big fan of Daft Punk , like pre-2000, when it first came out big.
Now that they’re more mainstream, they get noticed enough to get their own bearbrick. Decorated with their own silver and Gold domed helmets they don on a normal basis (ive seen them in real life, not as cool looking)
Available at [...]

Poster Boy makes another appearance

NYmag decides to do a piece on the New York subway poster defacing / art -

Since January, the 25-year-old has manipulated about 200 underground posters, turning MTA stations into his own public galleries. His pieces are conceived on the spot, and while most subway-poster vandals limit themselves to all-caps obscenities, Poster Boy’s improvised mash-ups [...]
