Transportation
With Game Over spelled out on it’s tank sides, this bike by the Navel Factory can only be said to hulk. But the details are lovely. The cut away speedo for one.
True love. Seriously. The guy built this sweet Norton for his girlfriend. That just screams marriage material all over it.
Not very good quality video but I just love listening to the commentary. Catalina 1954.
Society and Culture
I’m sadden to have just discovered Neither More Nor Less at the end of it’s run. Images and stories from the real world of the East Willage. A daily diary of a small part of our world written and photographed every day for 4 years. It’s over now. Take a look back at one man paying careful attention.
Images, Art, and Design
Columbarium is a good dictionary word. It’s also a wise and compassionate way to deal with our dead. Tin-Sun But is a proposed columbarium for the bay of Hong Kong.
Pripayat was evacuated in May 1986. Told it would just be for a little while, the 50,000 residents took only a few days worth of clothes and a handful of personal items with them. Sitting along side all of the belongings that were left behind, these new images now live on the walls of the homes, offices, and factories that they left. Note that the article is wrong — most of these images were created by trespassers in the last 10 years not by the fleeing residents 20+ years ago. That doesn’t make the images any less effective.
Animals full of whimsy. (Rowers on a whale tail? A sheep made out of scissors?)
just pretend it’s Monday y’all
