Forget Alice’s adventures. Leave behind those tiny luminous illustrations of Dr. Seuss. We’ve found the real magical world of Wonderland and verisimilitude right in the tip of a spray can belonging to Brazilian street artist DMS (Davi De Melo Santos). With surreal faces that melt and mold around outdoor switch boxes, awkward building creases and trash piles, […]

Beyond her success as a DJ and producer for esteemed house label Crosstown Rebels (which includes artists like Glimpse, Damian Lazarus, Art Department and Jamie Jones), Deniz Kurtel is an audio-visual artist of considerable breadth. An accomplished interactive sculptor, Deniz has made a name for herself in the experimental art scene combining the use of […]

Ceramic artist Beth Katlemans’s latest installation Folly is set against a turquoise backdrop with 50 porcelain castings that put a Dennis the Menace twist on 18th century vignettes. Inspired by old English wall coverings, these delicate, adorable little scenes take on a new sinister view up close, as these white castings of popular toys are much […]

I don’t know why, but I’m a pretty big fan of pop-up books. Both that ABC3D book and Popville are legitimate works of art, and when done right they’re their own genre of awesomeness.

And no, not the cheap post-production “3D” that Clash of the Titans and Alice In Wonderland used, we’re talking the real deal, expensive-ass camera James Cameron […]

I stumbled across the photography of Ruadh DeLone and was instantly struck — both by the inherent disturbing nature of some of his themes, and the adept skill with which he captures his subjects. There’s obviously some post-production Photoshop wizardry performed on some images, but they are not tricks to hide flaws but rather techniques […]

I know the movie came out last week, but I only had a chance to catch Fantastic Mr. Fox this weekend with the Madfam over Thanksgiving. With some of us voting for the redundantly named Ninja Assassin (including yours truly), and others opting for the craptacular 2012, it seemed Mr. Fox was the one flick […]

This kid Nick Bertke (who goes by the alias ogo) did an audio and video remix of Alice In Wonderland, using 90% sound clippings from the original flick. Wow. The video is mad cool, but don’t sleep on the Ninja Tunesque audio track—it’s like if Mr. Scruff and Alice had sex on weed. Download it, […]
