Space Invader vs The Cube
Space Invader (the street artist, who apparently goes by just Invader now) busts out with his Rubikcubism shiznittlebam:
Invader had a solo show in NYC where he showcased a bunch of famous images that were created using the Rubik’s cube. To be honest, I’d say that all of them, that I saw, are cooler than the ones shown in this time-lapse creation version, but this vid is cool because you get to see it being created.
I remember trying to figure out the Rubik back in the 80′s when they first blew up. Them shit’s are impossible. I have heard there’s a ‘recipe’ to solving them, but I still wouldn’t sign up for this project. Seems like you’d go crazy tryin to put shit together…or you’d have to be very very high and lost all concept of time.
Skate or Stop Motion.
A cool idea and good execution from a dude named Tilman Singer. Skateboardanimation:
It’s cool how the internet and computers have paved the way for so many folks to bust out something creative (or retarded, etc.) and instantly share it with the world. Ten years ago this project would have never gotten past his college class critique…but now it’s available all over the world. Good job internet.
Art: Hummmmm Buggy.
Check out this vid about some artwork by Jeremy Dean that’s got folks talkin:
I gotta admit this is a pretty cool statement that’s being made with the Hummer buggy horse-drawn utility vehicle. If we keep fuckin with the planet and ignoring that its’ resources are finite, we may be headed back to real horse power.
Moral: Get our heads outta the sand and pay attention to shit around us before we fuck shit up beyond repair.
First Surf KickFlip.
Check out the first surfing kickflip caught on tape for the Surf Kickflip for Volcom contest:
Zoltan Torkos busted this on March 4th, 2011 at Steamers Lane, Santa Cruz, CA to win himself the $10,000 prize. Booyow!
A New Level Of WTF In Music…
This is Die Antwoord’s video for their track “Evil Boy”.
Warning: You are about to stain your eyes, brain, and ears with one of the worst examples of gimmick pop trash we’ve ever witnessed. Holy shit.
3 million fucking views on YouTube alone. And yes, there are actually folks out there that are stoked on this saying retarded shit like, “At least it’s not that same old thing” or “Yeah fully amazing shit – its some next level shit!!”. Idiots.
Transcript of a chat with a buddy that sent this:
Me: Holy shit…that is one of the worst attempts at music I’ve ever heard. Over 3 million views. What’s the matter with people?
There’s no way that anybody actually like that shit…just gotta be kids “rebelling” against the ‘norm’.
Him: LOL! What’s sad is I think it is better than all the other garbage hip-hop you hear on the radio today. You know money this, club that, bently this..
At least they are rapping about something new, boners. Very original. Video is so bizarre.. Yeah post it.
Me: I hear what you’re sayin bout radio bling-hop. But, those Antwoord folks just scream “I’m desperate to be different! Please notice me! No, I don’t have talent but I’m willing to make a fool out of myself for money!” to me.
Because of that song/video, I’m just gonna start saying, “fuck south africa” from now on. They fucked up.

Yep, so be sure to cop their latest album.
