Really cool art work by Taeyoung Choi.  I really enjoy looking at his work, its very mixed, some of it is futuristic others are fantasy based.  Check out his portfolio site here: Taeyoung Choi

The wonderful engineers from the University of Bristol have decided to create a human expression robot named Jule.  Yes it is a bit creepy, but you have to look beyond that and admire the technology involved in something like this. Even though Jule’s looks like she is experiencing constipation, its still amazing to see how realistic her face expressions are.

I came across this Argentine artist on Etsy today. Cynthia Del Giudice’s hand made, delicate, abstract flowers are made out of fused plastic bags! The idea of using everyday material, that’s generaly diregarded and often not even recycled, to create beautiful pieces of art is inspiring.

Gap is having another series of their holiday commercials. This time they are using bunch of actors and singers, who I am not sure really go together, but I think this was the exact point. Beacause he theme is ” Mix Not Match”, they mix the prints as well as the songs.

Here are some of these commercials:

and the last one with my fave new artist Janelle Monae

If you are a KISS fan you would love Ron English KISS inspired paintings which are at a gallery show in Shooting Gallery San Francisco. 

Finally some guidance to make my life a bit more organized!

When I first saw Lisa Black’s work, I admit I was a little disturbed… But the more I look at these pieces, the more I start appreciating the creativity behind them.  It is amazing how these dead animals are in a way brought back to life in an artistic form.  See more of her work here: Lisa Black

Not sure what this is or what the purpose of this video was, but its kind of cool to watch.  Imagine one of them trips…

This Los Angeles band, to me sounds like a mixture of Gogol Bordello and System of a Down. They’ve been around for a couple of years and have a few albums under their belts.  Their  fun and unique bordello / middle eastern sound is bound to make you wanna shimmy shimmy.
Hope you enjoy it. Visa!
