Transportation
I love it when a company uses competent stylish women to sell cars. I also love the unapologetic pizzaz of these Tail fins from ’58.
Soft tail frame plus R1100RS engine… um… Here’s the finish, click back to page 1 to read the entire story. Some of the custom fabrication and more impressively modifications of stock parts from random models are worth a look.
Pointless Editorial Commentary
One of the rare funnies I have to share with you all. Cookie Monster in a fix.
Art, Images, and Design
The French artist Dran has a show in London this month, I Have Chalks. With a new twist on the usual prints on a the wall. 100 screen prints of one of his well known characters, the little boy drawing on the wall, were made up without the background. In other words there’s no drawing on the wall. Darn then drew on each print. That’s a terrible explanation. Just go look at the pictures.
I give you, without comment, The Architect’s Brother.
The link to the exhibition info at George Eastman House is broken. However, Simone Preuss gives some background on the artist and the process over on Environmental Graffiti.
Animation
The video quality isn’t the best but the technique and the storyline are top-notch. Animation that mimics a pop-up book, the story of a duck that unwisely stalks a little boy. The Happy Duckling.
Long week = short links. But I’ll try to have something for you every day.
