Ryan Heshka has a show in LA at Secret Headquarters bookshop. Here is a link to the show! I am a HUGE fan of Ryan’s work…I love his colors and the way he captures so perfectly that 50’s era sci fi pulp weirdness, while keeping his own look.

Falco finally honored in San Francisco with... →
Following up on a pair (1, 2) of Boing Boing tv episodes in which monochrom explores the posthumous legacy of ’80s pop icon Falco, who is memorialized in Austria with honorific stairs, Jacob Appelbaum says:
Some anonymous fans of both Vienna, San Francisco and Falco appear to have taken their love to the stairs. Specifically the Coit Tower stairs! Snip:

Anton LaVey's Black House now condos →
For decades, the Victorian seen in the far left photo was a San Francisco landmark known as the Black House. It was home to Church of Satan founder Dr. Anton LaVey from 1967 until his death in 1997. After falling into disrepair, the Black House was sadly demolished in 2001. The current owners of the property built three cheesy condominiums in its place that are just now up for sale. My friend Greg...

New York Times Review of new Wellcome Center →
From the New York Times’ Museum Review “One Man’s Jigsaw Puzzle, Capturing an Odd World” by Edward Rothstein: …the display cases provide an almost visceral impression of the variety of human preoccupations with the body, its ailments, its pleasures and its trials. It is too bad that the museum could not display thousands of these pieces, because quantity really is...
I got your Robot Dancing Girls right here →
This Grinder Boy spent yesterday in the field, going undercover at the Melbourne Big Day Out looking for signs of teh_future. Whilst I did spy the odd decent tattoo, and a freaky goth clown, the clear stand-out was the Roborock sideshow - with their robodrummer and attendant pole dancing girls:
Roborock is a collaboration between Giles Walker (Pole Dancers) and Frank Barnes ...

???We Will Be Heard??? →
One of the things fascinating me about these video communications from Anonymous ??? aside from the obvious, an anonymous organisation of internet users communicating only through YouTube, which has implications and resonance of its own ??? is the sense of foreboding they manage to create. Contrast that to, say, the Yippies and the retarded gibberish they spouted every time they got near...
Gigantic Mech Animals are a Seriously Stylish Way... →
Les Machines de l’ile de Nantes are gigantic mechanical animal vehicles currently on display in the French city of Nantes. While they just look like giant models, these things are fully functioning vehicles that people can ride in. Don’t believe me? Check out the video of the elephant, full of people, lurching through town after the jump, you doubter.

Dear Mr Nomi,
We’ve never met, and your ashes have long since been scattered above Manhattan, so I guess it’s pretty weird for me to be writing you this letter. Then again, everyone always says you seemed to hail from another planet. Let’s pretend for a minute that you didn’t die all alone in a hospital bed. It’s comforting to imagine that you simply returned...

Garbage re-purposed as modern
art is not that uncommon these days, but Hector Serrano takes it to
a whole new level with this giant installation he did for the
Valencia City Council in honor of World Environment Day.
By covering majestic white columns of an old-school gazebo with
hundreds of black rubber tires collectively shaped like a giant
looming cloud, he’s hoping to remind us of how...
