Nick Gentry, a Central Saint Martin’s graduate and apparent stranger to canvas stretching, prefers to paint portraits on a canvas constructed with floppy disks. He strategically incorporates these obsolete tech properties into his subjects’ features creating a file cabinet effect. Gentry places an emphasis on recycling and reusing personal objects, acquiring dead technologies through a […]

Directed by Tom Haines, the “Money And Run” video is the lead single off UNKLE’s new EP, Only The Lonely. “It has a sort of Clockwork Orange-esque feeling about it,” UNKLE’s James Lavelle tells Mashable. “It follows […]
A couple years ago we came across an item called the Openaire, created by sibling duo Nick&Beau. We thought the concept was brilliant in its simplicity: a laptop case that functions not only to protect and carry your computer, but which can fold out to create its own ad hoc workspace — complete with mini […]

You know we’re fans of the avant garde Visionaire Magazine, who always push themselves to evolve the format to the next level. Most of their work is so future-forward that the term “magazine” is a disservice, like Issue 57 (consisting of an electric calender with 365 different curated images) that we covered a couple months […]
Designed by Nick Trincia — one-half of the duo behind the ever-popular Openaire laptop workstation — the Fluid Rocker chair is another clever creation.
