Propaganda Remix Project

Love this guy, Micah Ian Wright. In addition to other talents, he’s made new messages out of classic propaganda posters from WWII.

Tadanori Yokoo Inspires Japanese Culture

Remember looking at Tadanori Yokoo’s work the other day? Was sent this the same day by a friend. It’s absolutely Yokoo’s work come to life. Beautiful. And supercute.

Tax Snax!!!

Great article by Mark Bittman in the NYT HERE. Seems like a radical idea, but it’s really just incredibly obvious.

Michelle Obama Storming the Food Desert.

Wikileaks MasterCard Parody

I’m still fascinated by the whole Wikileaks saga. If the info was so top-secret, how did Assange get hold of it? The whole thing is about a lot of egg on a lot of faces. Video HERE.

Paper or Plastic?

Hopefully you all know the answer by now...NEITHER! Love me some re-usable bags, I have quite a collection from Schnuck’s and several from this company BAGGU—the bags fold into a smaller pouch for easier transport or keeping in another bag. Love the name, it sounds like a Japlish transformation, but I don’t know for sure.

Film on Paper

Very interesting, obsessive site from a film poster collector. Shared by Steve.

While my film tastes rarely collide with this guy’s—he tends toward horror, violence, pop, and cheese—I find his dedication to the collection amazing. The labor of a truly passionate collector. I found the different format and publicity slant of the U.K. posters particularly interesting.
