A how-to for making SRIRACHA from Food52, a blog full of creative yummy-things: Fresh Sriracha (aka, home made ‘Rooster’) from Food52 on Vimeo. MMMMMMM I want to have some right now. On noodles or something.
Is it sport, or is it art? I don’t know, but it’s incredible.
My new guitar! I won it in a contest. It’s autographed (and doodled on) by the members of the “baroque pop” group Evelyn Evelyn – Amanda Palmer (of the Dresden Dolls, a band which I have heard of but don’t know anything about :/ )and Jason Webley, neither of whom I had heard of before… [...]
This post is about FREE FOOD! (I suppose that would have made for a more attractive title…) Why, yes, I would LOVE some free Rice Krispie treats, please send them my way! If you had a chance to watch Rip! A Remix Manifesto (you know, the movie I wrote about a couple days ago?), you [...]
Okay, trailer time. WATCH! Last week I was introduced to a 2008 documentary about how new culture is created by building upon old culture, and how the digital age is affecting the creation of new culture.

Slightly old news but still epic: this mashup trailer for the movies Up and Inception (the first of which was stunning, the second of which was less impressive than the hype had led me to believe… the concept was top-notch but the lack of character development and the fact that it was two hours too [...]
I learned a few weeks ago that somebody has opened a drive-in movie theater just a few minutes from my house. Have you ever been to one? Maybe a decade ago (when I was EXTRA-little), there was a drive-in in my city and my family went once or twice, but it has since been closed, [...]
Tonight’s first act is the collage (mostly) art of Brooklyn artist Lulu Wolf. There isn’t much information on her website but the image gallery pretty much speaks for itself in my opinion. Next is a well-produced video of a curious project which was started by, well, a multinational paint company. The director is Adam Berg [...]
I’ve done two assignments lately which I’ve been satisfied with. The first is a pen-and-ink drawing for drawing class (what else?). It was the first only time during the class where we had the opportunity to select our own subject matter, so needless to say I enjoyed the process a lot more than I have [...]
