Queens
2008-08-13 13:30:00 Last summer in a rented garage on the outskirts of Queens , NY something incredible was happening. A group of imaginative tinkerers from Trinidad were working late into the nights creating something nobody had ever seen before: enormous stereo systems jury rigged onto ordinary bmx bikes. Traveling together, each behind the handlebars of his or her own massive homemade creation, they treat the neighborhood to an outrageous impromptu music and dance party on wheels. Directed by Randall Stevens, Made In Queens is a film celebrating America's first stereobike crew. Can't wait to see the Film!
14 Ways
2008-08-10 11:44:00 A new ChangeThis Manifesto: 14 Ways to Get Breakthrough Ideas. "...It begins with the awareness of where ideas come from in the first place."14. Suspend LogicPerhaps einstein said it best when he declared ?not everything that can be counted counts; and not everything that counts can be counted.?

To celebrate the launch of DENHAM Hiro has gifted 100 bottles of the finest exclusive DENHAM branded sake. This is the first ever export of his family sake outside of Japan since 7 generations.DENHAM will open a gallery boutique denim store in Amsterdam (9 streets) in December.Looking forward to that!Thank you Menno for sharing

Field
More articles from this author:2008-06-09 01:53:00 Interesting works by Nicola Dale"I think about time all the time. Whichever medium I use, I use it to think about years, hours, minutes and seconds. I have a lot of questions I am trying to answer: What is time? Where does it go? Can I play with it? Can I travel through it in a different direction? Can I waste it as well as gaining it? Will time eventually run out? The work I make is often time consuming. For instance, I have painted using a teat pipette (The Circus), moved grains of sand using tweezers (Repetitive Strain) and written a long rhyming poem using only other peoples lines of poetry (Cuckoo Song)."
