La Musica Coolica #39 (7L&Eso)
7L and Esoteric are a hip hop group out of Boston. They rhyme about Jamie Lee Curtis and Wookies. I like them. Here is Feudal Lords (feat. Nejel Mongrel) (be forewarned, it has the “s” word).

Brando on a Vespa in Sicily
This shot comes from Jef Aerosol’s Flickr (who is also apparently the artist). I cracked up, when I first saw this shot. I love the way that Brando is totally straight faced. I also like it because Reagan and I are such fans of Vespas. I can’t tell if this is painted or wheatpaste. Either … Continue reading Brando on a Vespa in Sicily
Three Day History Tour, beginning tomorrow
I read the book “1776” earlier this year. So did my dad and my brothers. It was all part of a plan hatched by my dad. The idea was that we all read the book together, then have a pow-wow, here in NYC to visit the local sites that we all read about in the … Continue reading Three Day History Tour, beginning tomorrow
Pixada legal da semana
This one comes to us from Bigbozo’s flickr. It is in his South Wales collection. It is unclear who the artist is. But I’m totally digging this Audrey stencil.
D&G’s Bonaparte Campaign
Wow. I mean, I could understand when Triple 5 Soul brought back the WWII style military look. It was fairly low key. Mostly just different shades of khaki and green, with a fake patch here and there. But D&G has out-done themselves, here. They decided to take the military theme back a couple of centuries, … Continue reading D&G’s Bonaparte Campaign
La Musica Coolica #38 (Nirvana)
As with probably half, or even more than half of my generation, one of my all-time favorite rock bands is Nirvana. There is nothing that I can write about them that hasn’t already been written 1000 times over. The song that I’m sharing from them, is not actually a Nirvana, song. It was actually written … Continue reading La Musica Coolica #38 (Nirvana)
The most ridiculously cool Street Art I have seen in a while
Once again this comes by way of Wooster, from Traseone. Mini shadow skater stencils. Sick.
La Musica Coolica #37 (DP)
I had kind of forgotten about these guys, until one of my old homies from HS brought them up on FB. So, thanks, Mike! I first heard of Digable Planets on a compilation album that I picked up for free at this record shop I used to work out. The compilation is called “Jazzafunkapyschadelic.” It’s … Continue reading La Musica Coolica #37 (DP)
Impractical, but cool
I came across this fancy little product from Contexture Design, via Fresness. I’m not really sure why a person would want to take a smaller version of a device (conceptually made smaller to be more convenient) and bulk it back up with such a large case. But I do like the aesthetic. Maybe they can … Continue reading Impractical, but cool
Headphones a la Gilligan
From a purely aestheic perspective, these things are a 9 and 1/2 out of 10. The fact that they are also functional is an added bonus. Make Blog re-posted them from Iwan Roberts‘ blog Dau Gi Bauch, where he writes about having constructed them for his friend’s 21st birthday. Roberts, can we get and instructables … Continue reading Headphones a la Gilligan
