Stephan Balleux

Not sure how I found Stephan Balleux's archive of densely gobbed, skeletal and amorphous works. Probably FFFFound! (and hopefully not a repost from here). Anyway — wherever I sourced it, I'm certain it was one of his uniquely rendered skulls that initially caught my eye. Armed with paint thick enough to pass as sculpture, sculpture precisely rendered enough to be CG and with plenty of actual CG thrown in too, Balleux has amassed quite an intriguing and inspiring collection of low/high brow art. Intentionally synaesthetic stuff that's both intimately personal and universal at once.

The thread continues with more skully stuff at strange|beautiful.

Jenkins: 5's

My good friend Andy has a shitload of reasonably priced 5x5" paintings for sale from the Lab101 show, "stAAAmmering" earlier this year. I've got two on the way. Just wish I hadn't missed out on the skull one...

Paintings here.

A 90 piece, travelling Takashi Murakami restrospective lands at the MOCA in L.A.
Looks like its been up for a while, but it’s news to me.
Lot’s of clips at MOCA's site for the exhibit, many narrated by TM™ himself.

The End

"Lettering buffs and cinephiles alike may enjoy this lovely Flickr set containing final frames of classic films. Romantically, these hearken back to an age before typesetting replaced hand-lettering as a matter of convenience, but sociologically they tell another interesting story as well."

W.C. Richardson

I stumbled upon W.C. Richardson and the Geoform site while googling cover images for OLAibi’s Humming moon drip album. I’m a bit of an obsessive cover digger. Seems like the folks at Geoform share that nature in terms of geometric art. Though not totally my thing, some of Richardson’s paintings struck me as being worth a closer look. Interesting interview too.

Flock'n_A

The site for Flock — The Social Web Browser, invites you to download and "Get Ready to Meet Your New Favorite Browser". It seemed a bit suspect at first but I gotta say, after messing with it's integrated social/media functionality, the phrase Safari/Firefox killer comes to mind. Within minutes, I added it as my default browser and for the past few days haven't found a reason to go back.

It even compelled me to get a Facebook account, and for me -- that's saying something.

Check it out.
