Two of the more interesting personalities in our current cultural landscape sit down for an hour long interview for radio station WYNC in New York. The host of the Here’s The Thing show, Alec Baldwin somehow convinced the usually reticent Thom Yorke to wax loquacious about many a topic, including of course the long history of Radiohead [...]

We’ve covered several of Romain Jerome’s outlandish timepiece creations before (like the $17,900 PAC-MAN wristwatch, or the similar Space Invaders version). Now Romain is similarly reaching back to his 80s pop roots, this time tapping seminal automotive culture from that bygone decade.

Why not. I mean, who would be shocked by the shamelessly self-promoting [...]

The upcoming book Forever: The New Tattoo edited by R. Klanten and F. Schulze documents tattoos that are still breaking new ground in a culture where the artform has gone mainstream. Any walk through Silverlake or Brooklyn (nevermind Nashville, Austin, Portland, San Francisco, etc etc) will quickly dispel the myth of the tattoo as symbol of [...]
