Thanks to the Jogging for being on the front lines of artists responding to that ridiculous Supreme Vs. Married to the Mob lawsuit with Uncool Jokers, 2013 by Michael Bussell.  Refresher: Leah McSweeney has been using the parody of the Supreme logo for her “Supreme Bitch” t-shirts for years and now, James Jebbia of Supreme is only now […]

Fall into the very undulating orifice of cyberspace with artist Faith Holland’s new project! VIRTUAL GRRL presents,  www.VVVVVV.xxx — freshly premiered, just in time for the National Masturbation Month. Navigate the familiar landscape of a porn portal and get baited into right onto animated GIFs, cyberpoetry, lecture videos, and mesmerizing miscellany. I’ve been wandering around it’s pop-up […]

Brooklyn-based artist and designer Michael J. Silber created Kaleidopope, which is exactly what you think it is. From Francis and Benedict on back, the Kaleidopope takes generation upon generation of His Tripiness and sends them into an abstracted swirl. Here’s what Silber has to say: KaleidoPope is an hypnotic interactive kaleidoscope. I composed a photo […]

This recent series of GIFs by artist Anthony Antonellis is pretty perfect. See flattened collages of melting flesh quivering inside almost-familiar shapes of hand-held devices. (Hand-held “hands”?) It’s lightly reminiscent of old body-horror Cronenberg (or new Cronenberg Jr.!) but clean and crisp. Ahhh. […]

She is now the second official collector to acquire a Vine from the Shortest Video Ever Sold! #SVAES project and there will be others. She has […]

You’re up early-ish. Here’s your reward. Prolific French artist and video designer Michaël Borras aka Systaime just made this datamosh and 8-bit cover of our favorite “net-artist” Rihanna’s “Stay” featuring Mikky Ekko. (Datamosh is cool, datamosh is grea-a-at.) Seriously hypnotizing, thanks for making this. Why did he make this? For the fun. 😉 Here’s Systaime’s Rhianna with just datamosh: Here’s […]

Bunny Rogers and Filip Olszewski were very particular about the color of the twin-size vladmodels.ru, Ukranian Nymphets and H.M.M. H.M.M. H.M.M. H.M.M. twin-size blankets. They wanted each in the exact shade of the average pixel color of a source image — each a watermarked photo of suspect-sounding child-modeling agency site. The seamstresses had to embroider the sites’ satiny logos exactly. […]

“Is anyone else drinking at work? Have your intern pour you some SLAVA, and get ready to have your bank accounts emptied, your identity stolen, and your Twitter unverified, because this video is going to leave you #HACKED.” What. I know it’s also confusing because there is such a thing called Slava Vodka but this […]
