- Feist :: Honey, Honey
Beautiful video, made with Calgary-based, Old Trout Puppet Workshop
- Linda Zacks : Part 1: New York
Linda Zacks’ body of work is just too vast to sum up into one post, so over the next few days I’m going to feature some of her selected projects. Her work embodies urban grit. It’s as if I can smell and taste the cocktail of dumpster/sewage gas/exhaust-laden air and hear the canvas of sounds [...]
- Is There Any Hope for Fair Use?
The AP needs to get a life. Now they’re going after artist Shepard Fairey for his re-purposing of a supposed AP copyrighted photo of Obama. I say supposed because the photographer who snapped the pic was on a temporary placement at the AP and never did sign a contract with them – so who actually [...]
- We Feel Fine
We Feel Fine is the brain child of Jonathan Harris and Sep Kawvar. Harris describes the project as “a combination of computer science, anthropology, visual art and storytelling”. The web-based application harvests blog posts for the terms “I feel” and “I Am Feeling” and then collects, stores and analyzes the entire sentence that the terms [...]

Fueled by a desire to know how things work beneath its surface, photographer Nick Veasey has snapped over 4000 x-rayed objects – everything from flowers, clocks, tractors and airplanes. His process brings a certain beauty to everyday-used objects, plus it just cools cool. He has just released a new book entitled: X-Ray See Through the World [...]
- Mudchicken
Mixed media brilliance by Vincent Pacheco, a.k.a. Mudchicken
- Jeff Canham: Signs, Lettering, Paintings
Jeff Canham, traditional sign maker, painter, designer based in San Fransisco. I’m a huge fan of hand-drawn typefaces so naturally I graviatated toward Jeff’s work. The mix’match puzzle work of his art pieces is really cool as well. I like the dynamic plane that’s created on top.
- 1 Bit :: Tristan Perich
Tristan Perich is an artist and musician who explores the asethetics of low-fi technology. He’s designed a circuit that plays back music at 1 bit (the lowest possible resolution). To put this into context, most digital recording today is done at 32 bit, in other words 32 times the amount of information. When you purchase [...]
- Michael E. Northrup Photography
Funny / beautiful / ironic / tragic photo collection book called Beautiful Ecstasy from photographer and teacher Michael E. Northrup.
- Acrylic & Charcoal Pieces
Snapped these at a hallway gallery at the University of Lethbridge. They’re by Nicolas Louma ( nicklouma5 -/@/- hotmail.com ) I like the feel that the dripping ink adds, it begins to create somewhat of a grid across the composition.
