Shepard Fairey at Obey Giant has created some limited edition prints of Barack Obama and is donating the proceeds to our next President’s campaign.

Barack Obama has a posse

We were hoping that Edwards would have done better, but now we’re really pulling for Obama. I don’t know about you, but I’m tired of living under a regime that makes me grind my teeth so dang much! Here’s to change, and a little less stress in the world.

Imagine there’s no billboards…

It’s easy if you try. And kind of disquieting at the same time. We all take our visually noisy, jarring and overloaded urban landscape for granted. But, what if you could snap your fingers and make all of the billboards and outdoor advertising just disappear? Poof! That’s what happened in São Paulo Brazil, but it didn’t just magically happen. And now, big outdoor advertising companies like Clear Channel are whining about their “rights” and suing the local government saying that banning the ads is unconstitutional. It will be interesting to see the outcome, and how this may embolden other communities and cities around the world to do the same. Having a hard time imagining what your neighborhood might look like with no ads? Take a look at these photos of São Paulo by Tony de Marco:

Fusco Brothers By Default
I once had a book by J.C. Duffy called, Moot Points that I read over and over through high school and beyond. It was a very silly, and very DADA collection of one page comics. I think it damaged my brain. In a good way.

Happy Halloween!

ghoul music albumIt’s October, boys and ghouls and that means it’s time to listen to some classic Halloween music! Thanks to Jason at Scar Stuff Blog, you can now gorge on bag-loads of sugary audio treats from the beyond. Not just the tried-and-true stuff like “The Monster Mash” and the ”Munsters Theme,” but some real groovy-ghoulies, like “Riboflavin Flavored, Non Carbonated, Poly-Unsaturated Blood,” “What Kind Of Ghoul Am I” and “A Hearse Is Not A Home.” The puns alone are easily worth the price of admission. They even have the Fat Albert Halloween Record, which is actually just a straight copy of a Halloween-themed episode with no additional narration, but hey, hey, hey–who cares! Check ‘em out now before they’re called back to the grave…

ear on arm

Australian performance artist, Stelios Arcadious has grafted a cloned ear onto his arm. After searching for years to find a doctor willing to perform the operation, he finally fulfilled his dream to have a third ear. “The last operation was in September 2006 and its only now that I’m about ready for the next step. I hope to have a tiny microphone implanted to it that will connect with a bluetooth transmitter; that way you can listen to what my ear is hearing.”
