Sincerely apologizing on my end for the lack of updates/posts on the site for the last month +. As in the case of small operations like Losmosis, sometimes life-interferences can add up and put a halt on things. Just a little reassurance that we’re coming back soon (aiming for within the next 7 days or the first week of Dec at the latest) with all the mental stimulation you’ve come to expect.
Sure, we may be at 14mins 30seconds mark for anything auto-tuned but the underlying song + the inter-cut footage really make this. video.
Though some thoughts kept resurfacing during my second viewing –
-Did he not know there was a camera there?
-What’s a double tapered shit?
-George Brett should really look into his dietary habits if he shits his pants about twice a year.
Over at SuperPunch they’ve collected a fair number of the visual mash-ups of Disney meets Marvel. Got to love the speed of the interwebz. News hits of Disney purchasing Marvel and literally within hours these little gems are making the rounds.
Sam3 (Elche, Spain – b. 1980) is known for creating massive scale silhouettes in urban spaces. He refers to his dramatic black and white works as “shadows.” The absence of defining details in his paintings allows for him to not only work quickly, but also makes the message more accessible. His seemingly simple style is dense with profundity; the work is a reflection of the human condition as viewed through the experience of his global travels.
Show starts September 4th @ Anno Domini.

Contributor abides by a simple mantra: skateboards for all.
The negative effects of poverty are very significant and limiting for those who are affected by it on a daily basis, but are especially difficult for youth. For these youth things that we take for granted – let’s say, the simple action of going out to play with friends on a skateboard – seem unattainable. Without access to a positive support through a group of peers and healthy alternatives to focus on, these kids can lose their way. By working with non-profit organizations across Canada, who are dedicated to youth at risk and children in lower-income neighborhoods, we hope to encourage successful outcomes through the addition of skateboarding as a positive reinforcement.
The premise behind Surtido de Mutaciones is pretty interesting…Basically that IKEA is actually a supplier of raw materials, rather than of finished products. They challenged 35 designers to go to IKEA and to come up with new products that used existing IKEA parts. Everything used in their products had to come from IKEA, including screws, seats, screens, etc.
They range from simple reinventions to elaborate light fixtures. Seeing these really inspires one to get out and try their hand at recombining pieces, because at Ikea prices, what’s stopping you anyway?
