CHROME PING PONG TABLE
November 19th, 2009Some things are just better in chrome. So believes designer Rirkrit Tiravanija, anyway, as he created this shined-out ping pong table that’s easily the second coolest we’ve ever seen (here’s the first). This reflective game table can double as a ping pong table and a traditional table for meeting, dining, work or coffee. As shown above, you can rock this table outside as well. We love the inspiration, Mr. Tiravanija, and wouldn’t mind sporting a game to 15 with you. Your serve!
THE URBAN MURAL ART OF DAN23
November 19th, 2009Inspired by street art and the legends of music and culture, French artist Daniel Bussiere, or Dan23, is earning the respect of the urban art world. Instead of painting with a collection of spray cans, Dan23 uses traditional means to create pieces that rest on walls flanked by graffiti. Dan23’s subject matter are the greats of music and culture, with soul music legends like Ray Charles and James Brown and cultural icons like the Dalai Lama and Barack Obama. Most recently, Dan23 has been creating live paintings alongside touring acts in France, some of which are for sale on his cheval23 website.
MUSIC : LYDIA
November 18th, 2009I am in a current mood of sadness, regret and desperation. This band has got me in a zone, that helps me carry my fingers letter to letter until they create code, that creates words, and that fills my face with an expression, and I will never forget.
