Messy, meticulous, and gorgeous all in one. This makes me miss working with clay.

Wedel is offering this piece through the GlobalGiving eBay project/store "Handmade for Japan". 100% of the final selling price will be donated to help raise relief funds for Japan.

Iksi
Ongoing

A manipulable image reveals a snippet of time from Antwerp- and Amsterdam-based designer Iksi's immediate or passing scenery. The solitary feel projects a sense of knowing neither language nor anyone. For a moment, you are visitor of his locale, site, and life.

The Shining Recut


neochosen
2006

Today is the Ides of March. The Ides of March marks the date of Julius Caesar's imminent death that was dramatized in Shakespeare's play. Backstabber (curated by Dave Dyment for Art Metropole, 2001) was an exhibition for the Ides of March. There's a bit of romanticization in both Shakespeare's and Dyment's work, so to honor all of that, here is the pinnacle of recut trailers (and with a bit of Ides in it too). You know the scene where Jack hurls the baseball down a long corridor? The first time I saw neochosen's trailer, I felt like that baseball -- happy-go-lucky-ly. That is how much I wish I came up with this first.
