Learn english with aerobics!
Maybe this could work well with other things. Imagine a how to yo-yo video taught aerobics video style.

SF Zine Fest
Wednesday, September 20th, 2006

This is long overdue, but I’m posting pictures up from the recent Zine Festival at Cell Space in San Francisco. Here is a picture of Ryan Shiga, the author of Fleep. Meeting Ryan was probably the coolest part of the whole fest for me.
I spent the friday before the event printing up [...]

Fike

On a recent trip to the Laney Flea Market I scored these boss fake Nike’s. Now I obviously don’t know much about the real Nike’s shoe line, I do know they don’t make shoes like this. I’m assuming these kicks where made to actually imitate Bapes.
The shell toes are clear, the heel is shiny black.

Banksy, Bansky, Bansky.
Bansky this.
Bansky that.
Below is a newer video of a project that Bansky and Dangermouse worked on. Dangermouse has the ability to take any phenomenal talent and make them kind of boring. I guess that goes true with this prank/statement/vandalism, but I still would love a copy of the remix album.

Just Like Prom Night
Friday, September 8th, 2006

Wednesday, September 6th, 2006

I just wanted to repost I comment I left on a friends blog in regards to Chevy’s restaurant chain:

Ever since I was a kid [...]

Happy Hour Power House
Tuesday, September 5th, 2006

I went to the Power House in SOMA yesterday, it’s a trip. I had never really been into a “Leather Bar” venue before, it was a total trip. I asked the bartender where the restroom was and as he told me the directions he fumbled around for this large block of wood behind the bar. [...]

Transistor Bending
Sunday, September 3rd, 2006

Here is one of my most recent projects. Of course I’m a huge fan of retro technology and re-using old items, but this newest craft project has been one of my favorites. It also seems to have garnered more interest by passerbies than some of my other projects.
I’m taking old vacuum tubes from broken radios [...]
