New York-based graphic designer Zhang Qingyun has created a curious and brilliant case study of YOU ON THE INTERNET. For his piece at the “Processed” exhibition at Center 548 in Chelsea, he set up two displays: (1) 50 captions culled from personal Facebook messages, gchats and tweets and (2) correlating Google Image results. Then he let the […]

This past weekend, a new exhibit of his work opened at Gallery 69 in Tribeca. The solo show, entitled “Hypnotic,” is comprised of painted canvases, with all […]

The proposed machines will accept credit cards and will operate via touch screen. Er, don’t worry, Vengo will also offer hand sanitizer. While the company has yet […]
The Harlem Shake is all but dead (hopefully), and people might be voraciously searching for the new horse to beat past death. Gallon smashing–in which one carelessly tosses two gallons of liquid in the air near unsuspecting supermarket patrons as he pretends he slipped– is not it. As hilarious as this is, please don’t make […]
