Girl Talk - All Day


As a generous gesture, mashup and sampling specialist Gregg Michael Gillis alias Girl Talkoffers his latest opus All Day for free. The project features snippets of songs from the likes of Neil Diamond, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Beyoncé and INXS. Grab it below and appreciate.

Let's be honest, we all love boobs. Big, small, firm, floppy, black, white, brown, real, or fake. We just can't get enough of 'em. They are very distracting (boobie trap), and sometimes very scary. But whatever your taste and the case might be, this 3DD Book is going on my Christmas List, no doubt. With a free pair of stylish plastic aviator 3D glasses, you can't go wrong.


"We might have pointed out that the beautiful images of natural breasts in all shapes and sizes are a wonderful celebration of real women in all their glory. Or we could have reveled in the universal truth that looking and talking about boobs is just a lot of fun.

But that would be to complicate something that can be said in four words.

Boobs in 3-D

Enjoy."



Art Weekend Madness

This past weekend I attended a couple, meaning two, art shows. Friday was the Temporary Collective at The Continental Gin Building, where a good friend, Ricardo Paniagua , had some awesome art and some ever more awesome chips and dips. The building is an old historic landmark at the edge of Deep Ellum that is full of studio space where great art creation takes place.


Some really interesting people. Yup, that is Cow Goddess craving some grapes.


This was a clever installation.

The show was fun, the treats were great, but it sucked when I ran out of gas. I had to give Ricardo 5 bucks for some gas he had laying around, just so I could get home that night.

Then Saturday it was the big event, Artopia. The event wasn't your usual gallery show. This was like a scientific fusion between night life and art.


Carlos Donjuan, from the Sour Grapes crew,doing some live painting. His paintings just got featured in the New American Paintings issue.

Wheat paste installation by Brent.

Live print making. There were giving these out FOR FREE! Thanks Public Trust

Aaron Aguirre, from Diverse Soul, making moves.

I accidentally met the creative genius behind Fur Face Boy, who by the way, just like Manny Pacquiao, won the night's match (t-shirt match!). He's a really cool cat with a great line of t-shirts, one which I'm putting on my Christmas wish list. Check out his blog, check out his line.

Fascinating. This is why I want to become an architect.

The Temporary Collective Show


Ricardo Paniagua
has this going on...

"As creatives, to exemplify solidarity is to reflect strength. A truly creative being should be an example for society, not ruled by the influences of institutions."

Present will be new, known, and well-known artists, all of high measure.

"The Temporary Collective will be an excellent and nearly unmatched (regionally) group of artists to show simultaneously with the annual Open Artists Studios event at The Continental Gin Company ...Building in Deep Ellum underneath the constellation of Sagittarius."

Join us tonight. Sponsored by Brooklyn Brew.

Continental Gin Building • 3309 Elm St. • Dallas, TX

Pacquiao vs Margarito

Saturday Nov. 13. @ Cowboys Stadium. Better than a Dallas Cowboys game that's for sure.


Roberto Marroquin is supposed to be something special. The 20-year-old from Oak Cliff attends Northwood University in Cedar Hill, wants to get his accounting degree from SMU and, oh by the way, is one of Top Rank Boxing's best rising fighters.

With a record of 16-0 and trained by Pacquiao's man, Freddie Roach, Marroquin will fight on Saturday night's undercard.

Who is Preface?

If you ask me, he's an artist. He just dropped a new single "Full Attack" produced by his sidekick Plex Luger. Together they cooked up this track full of swag.

Follow him @PrefMcFly and check more of his music here.

El Guicho - Bombay NSFW

El Guincho - Bombay from CANADA on Vimeo.



This completely off the hook El Guincho video is actually a trailer for a larger film. Directed by Nicolas Mendez, El Guincho's steel drummed, psyche-tropical trip into the human cosmos.

El Guincho, aka Pablo Díaz-Reixa is one strangely amazing dude who, growing up on the Canary Isles, was starved for 80's pop culture. He was just "a homeboy, who didn't know about much except the beach and the sea."


The Original Fat Cap Chair

Earlier this year, industrial designer Sander van Heukelom presented two conceptual pieces inspired by graffiti culture. Originally created as part of an exhibition, the Fat Cap design will now make its way into a commercial release. This video documents the process from sketch to finish for the chairs which will be available this fall through FatCapChair.com.

Timelapse Tokyo

inter // states from Samuel Cockedey on Vimeo.



There are a few things that I love in this world. One of them is timelapse videos, as you can tell by the earlier post in this blog. This video in particular shows the city of Tokyo. I like the fact that such videos allow you to see societies and cities in a total different perspective. We can see the city's pulse and movement reflecting such aesthetic that makes me appreciate living in a vivid city such as Dallas.

Photographer Samuel Cockedey and ambient/electronic musician Paul Frankland (also known as Woob) link up in this new timelapse video of Tokyo titled inter // states.

Pioneers! O Pioneers!


The Hundreds NYC opened up their doors last week. Check out their blog. They made a plate with this poem for the store front. I find it quite inspirational. Hope you do to. Enjoy.
