Enjoying a spot of quietness in downtown Orchard...with my photog possibly enjoying some other subject :)

On the topic of photography, Bernard Bertrand takes my breath away...simply sharp, pin-point sharpness

Go and be awed by Bernard's work


Came across this in my mail the other day, check out this guy...he's major talented, pure Illustrator graphix, "100% vectors" as he says. A very spiffy site, put your mouse over the completed image (at the site, not the one above) to see the vector framework.
He's bound for big things, go check him out at TechVector.com

I'm on a roll here, yet another computer whiz...i really feel like a computer idiot here(come to think of it, i am). Check out Marcin Wasko's award winner animated short film...its as good as anything i deemed excellent before(in other words, its excellent!)

One of those songs that are currently ringing in my head is "Jerk it out" by Caesars Palace...the tune for the iPod shuffle (yes, for the 1,000th time, i still have not gotten it yet...i'm a loser)
But if you have one(and don't intend to give it to me), go buy these shuffle art (the guys are actually from Singapore i believe, way to go!)

Go here for shuffle art or here for all the iPod goodies. Tell them you saw the info here!


DKNY "Be Delicious" campaign...
If you guys and girls haven't checked this new fragrance yet, you better! I for one think its a very well-thought-out campaign and design. The steel+glass design of the apple bottle simply begs you to touch and hold 'em. Seriously, it has been for some time that anyone has come out a set of fragrance that can attract both sexes. And I don't mean unisex perfum! Guys will love the ladies' sweet apple scent, and girls will adore the mens' musky tone. Heck with what i'm saying, girls: just get the ladies version, guys(ie: ME) will love it.


Go get Sneakers by the crew from Crooked Tongues
Very comprehensive list of kicks that get us hot under the collar, even comes with a list of recommended websites and stores, as well as what you need to know to get started on your need hobby(addiction). While i would've loved more detailed info about each shoe and brand, i guess you can't want everything. Thats what having us bloggers is about, we trawl the forums, with the scoops and insider info that you can't just buy...all for the "love of the game", as MJ put it so plainly in his rookie contract (don't know about that? ahh...thats a story for another update, kids)

In other streetwear-dom news, Props to being hunted for the mention, i'm now a "classic"...hahahha
It used to be a painstaking search for street culture info all over the web. Now, with the help of rebloggers to consolidate the tons of info, it gets easier, but by no means less exciting. But i guess classic is a proper term, i'm an oldie compared to those new kids! (however, i'm glad to announce i'm behind RTHQ in the calendar department...hehehehe)

My man Slam x Hype is getting overwhelmed...and he should be, with his up-to-date and great updates. A full website is underway, in the meantime keep sending him fan mail about his uber-cool blog(he'll be tired, but tired-happy, lol)

Btw, the Mr Cartoon AF1s are due for release this weekend in LA and most parts of US...check out the launch event at 5th D forum
link via Slam

anyone has a retail hookup for these? need a us10, get at me, email's on the right

Have a nice weekend y'all!
