Who's Keeping It Real in an Era of Fakery...?

Apparently, this guy.

I sketched this from the movie "Point Break" where Keanu Reeves and P Swayze shred unbelievable amounts of gnar.

Oscar Niemeyer

So what if Oscar Niemeyer is an unapologetic commie Stalin supporter. This 101 year old Brazilian architect designed the entire capital of Brasilia in the 50's. This is a great interview with Niemeyer from the Vice Brazilian Issue. He talks about architecture's relationship with politics, drawing, soccer, and golden penises.

Ed Templeton no.1

I found this in skatebook. The current issue has a retrospect on Ed Templeton, one of the most influential skateboarder/artists around. What first struck me about the photo was the creepy smile Ed had on his face while showing his thrashed up leg. That, along with the story by Ryan Clements, pretty much sums up Ed's twisted sense of humor.

Lance Mountain's Dream

Lance Mountain is a genius. He's been one of my favorite people since i was in middle school. This is his interpretation of a dream, then turning into a nightmare. It represents for me the two sides of skateboarding, the free flowing nature of it being interrupted by the harsh reality of falling down.

We're Not Scare-Mongering, This is Really Happening

This is a webcast of Radiohead's final song of their final performance on the In Rainbows Tour. The live show on In Rainbows was a study of 2 different visual media, solar-powered LED tubes, and numerous webcams which framed non-typical shots of the band throughout the show. This video encapsulates this visual study to the tune of Idioteque. Make sure you watch in HQ. Enjoy.

The News Stand

Here's that newspaper stand we talked about. Matt and I are going to repaint it soon. Anybody who wants to be involved is welcome. Hopefully we'll get this thing looking sharp and back out on the streets, filled with our propaganda, by June. Open to suggestions concerning a safe place to put it. Do you need a permit for this shit? We're clueless...
