GZA - Pro Tools
The GZA released a new record last week. The song, Life is a Movie, that got circulated via the interweb (and streaming above) is so nasty.

Burning Man did officially start yesterday. The creator of this site may 1) be onto something or 2) be a bitter asshole with no life. Hmm.

TV on the Radio is streaming the first single from their upcoming album here. The only reason I mention it is that I am deciding whether or not to see Radiohead tomorrow. The correlation is stupid, I promise.

The Brilliance linked this Teaser Clip to the new longboarding movie Picaresque. Looks really well shot. Dustin Miller looks to be the director of sorts.

to all of my problems, sue the Vatican for $150k citing some thievery that happened 7 centuries ago. They would just hand me the money considering these guys are trying to get 1,000,000 times that.

Michael Phelps is cool and all but do what you need to do (download Silverlight, ugh.) to see the 100m race that Usain Bolt destroyed. Also note how stoked the silver and bronze medalists were.

Polaroid's PoGo Pocket Printer (10 times fast) uses heat and crystals to infuse color into some special paper or something like that. Seems like an alright idea. Popular Science says this.

In hopes of answering a few questions for the homies: China spent $42 billion on the infrastructure. Michael Phelps does indeed listen to Lil' Wayne (I knew it), and a KC architect is in charge of repurposing.

I feel I need to make a quick addendum to the Weev post. Yes the guy is an Anti-Semite and that is dumb, and sorry if you got Goatsed while trying to read the comments on one of his latest LJ posts.

The Weev guy is a dick for sure but I thoroughly enjoyed this NYT mag article. Weev's Livejournal can be found here. Corrupt.org is pretty interesting as well.
3 specific things that struck me:
1. Weev bounces in a chauffeured Rolls Phantom (page 5)
2. His favorite Trolls were Zeno of Elea, Socrates and Jesus (page 5)
3. He is wearing a Jeremy Fish T-Shirt in the banner pic (page 1).

Check the Billy Shire site for images of the Shawn Barber show that opened a bit ago. The portrait of Kat Von D sold for a cool $40k. This one is my favorite.

I forgot to post this awhile back. Hillman Curtis updated his website. One of the commercials featured on the site has a familiar Engineer turned Designer storyline.

I was looking for some stock photos last night and stumbled upon the work of Henry Darger. I guess the guy is super famous in the world of outsider art and really ingrained in pop culture. Never heard of him.

Amanda Wachob is a painter who I assume lives in New York. I found her work via a great looking Blogger page called Aesthetic Outburst; which is run by my roommate Tim's, friend Tristan's, friend. Got that?

The guy to the left calls himself Jimmy Justice. He walks around New York looking for cops breaking the laws that they themselves enforce. He made the Washington Post yesterday and Network TV a year ago.

Good Magazine has a nice feature on six of the secret organizations that behind locked doors give the thumbs up to such things as 9-11 and the trading of Manny Ramirez to the Dodgers.
