Obama gathers 100,000 in rally.


Well this morning the police department of St. Louis announced that around 100,000 people gathered to support Barack Obama's campaign. It's news like this that gives me hope and pride to be involved in this man's campaign. This is just a sign of how many people really believe in this guy, and the power he has to unite a nation. The election is almost over, and with turnouts like this... OBAMA baby.

Creepy Cool & Crazy!


A Clockwork Orange is one of those films I think we all can say is one hard to forget. It's also hard to forget the main character, Alex's obsession with classical music, in particular, Beethoven. Well, artist, Frank Kozik has created a toy bust of Ludwig Van himself! A nice little twist in appreciation to the film, shows the classic eyelash motif, the characters wore throughout the film. These busts are amazing, retailing at around $200 a piece. 

These are Super!


Sunglasses by Super. Real dope. Definitely buying a pair of these when I see them. Here's some of their previous releases.

My typical monday night...


Yep a little vadalism. Why not? I got really sick and tired of seeing this McCain sign everyday in my neighborhood. So. I went and changed it. =)

Not alot to say, but I love this photograph


I don't know who this is. But I really dig it. The photo was part of the Qhuit adds for their new collection entitled Orgie.

No more slacking. I'm back, so let's start with Hirst.


Damien Hirst. Possibly the craziest dude I pay attention to. In my top 5 favorite artists, this gentleman is known to do some bizarre yet beautiful art. Death became his major theme in most of his work, as seen with his use of dead animals preserved in formaldehyde. His most famous work is a giant Tiger shark incased in formaldehyde and divided into glass cubes. In 2004 the shark auctioned off, making him the second most expensive living artist in the world. In 2007, he overpassed that spot to number one. His work sells anywhere from 10 million to 50 million pounds. Much of his work involves real diamonds, gold, and gems, which probably explains the ridiculous prices. With shows taking place throughout London, this is one guy who is a truely living legend. Enjoy his work below.

Being Blind.

This is gonna be absolutely incredible. My favorite director, Fernando Meirelles. He made my favorite film, City Of God, as well as The Constant Gardener which was also Brilliant. His next work is Blindness, based on an epidemic that takes over the world with blindness. One woman has the ability to see, and the rest of society is taken into containment. It looks extremely intense and incredible. Cannot wait!
