I don’t quite know what this is all about but it is in Minneapolis, the painters are Forrest Wozniak and Phil Vandervaart and it is pretty damn rad.

As I mentioned before, I’m curating an exhibition of eight Philadelphia-based artists who utilize printmaking techniques and self-printed materials, generally thought of as mediums of multiple, and incorporate them into one-of-a-kind works.

Doubting Thomases opens September 10th at Nudashank Gallery in Baltimore, Maryland and will feature works by Micah Danges, Chris Kline, Matt Leines, Isaac Tin Wei Lin, Bill McRight, Dan Murphy, Andrew Jeffrey Wright and myself.

The Wilderness Downtown

The Wilderness Downtown is an interactive movie made about the street you grew up on. Awesome concept built in HTML5 by Chris Milk and some help from google, plus the birds fly away from your mouse.

Memento Vivere – Grady Gordon

It has been a while since we shared a ‘zine we liked. I ordered this in the mail after seeing a jpeg on the interweb somewhere.
Memento Vivere by Grady Gordon (click PRINTING once you enter his site – everything else looks like it is a little older) published by The Flop Box as part of a show at Free Gold Watch I think.
More after the jump.

Tokyo subway manner poster, September 1976
As some of you know, I’m a big fan of imagery of super heroes using non-super methods of transportation.
Via Pink Tentacle – Thanks to Will for the heads up on this site.
Two more featuring the Man of Steel (how did they get the license to do that??).

Clearly show your train pass – September 1976

This poster warns passengers against getting their shoulder bags caught in the train doors – March 1977

Nothing like a hard earned beer after a longs night’s work.
From the Philadelphia Inquirer:
“A PennDot archaeological team arrived at a dig under I-95 this morning to find two men drinking beer and sitting on a 20-foot-long torpedo they apparently had found hours earlier in the Delaware River.”
This is from the same stretch of river that Bill and I visited and where Ryan and I found a beach full of bricks (but no torpedoes).

And as for the PennDot guys – Kick that torpedo – KICK IT.
