just in case we forgot that scoot stuff does go here.

quick update: i am still desperately ill – it appears that either [a] i spoke too soon about not getting hammered as badly with this particular Ick as Mr. Tillinghast [...]

vogue italia, mod moderne

i’m having a minor obsession with vogue italia this week.

 

Newbie Model Photoshoots – Vogue Italia July 2011 ‘Pret-a-Porter’ Shoot Shows Up-and-Comers Love (GALLERY).

 

probably because they’re, you know, awesomely insane.  i’m beginning to think there’s some kind of secret awesomely-insane chemical in the water over there. you [...]

Kiss a jet age masterpiece goodbye – I.M. Pei’s Terminal 6

20111006TerminalEmbed1-articleInline

 

WHILE ABC has conspicuously begun to celebrate the early jet age, the Port Authority has begun to tear it down.

Terminal 6 at Kennedy International Airport — a crisp island of aesthetic tranquility by the master architect I. M. Pei — is being demolished. The boarding gates are already piles of rubble. The main [...]

Men of the Stacks

 

well. i’ve come right up to the edge of being able to cheat my way around the fact that G+ hasn’t released API yet.

*sigh

you guys are just going to have to deal with me plusing up blogposts until i actually do find a cheat, or the API comes out, whichever happens first.

smoove criminal gangster dieselpunk lovin’

what. you come up with a more descriptive title.

this is what i am talking abowwwwd. it’s like the dieselpunk fairy godmother tried to reverse-engineer an Ape for Emma Peel, and got hopelessly bewildered, and this was the result.

click it. it likes that. but not too much, or it will impale you nimbly [...]

Muertitos : Christian Montenegro

these are kind of adorable. they might make good decals.

you should click them to view fullsize.

(what’s a caco? it looks like something i might have wanted to date when i was younger.)

these and many more types at the following: click it or ticket!

Ultra Light Scooter

i’d say this guy needs a hobby, but apparently he already has one.

Ultra Light Scooter from Bikes in the Fast Lane – Daily Motorcycle News.

MADC’s magnum opus.

i have never seen a concept wall on this scale. damn, woman.

639m2 wall. 150+ colors. 1489 cans.

pretend to be a time traveller day 2010

today has been the 2010 version of International Pretend To Be A Time Traveller Day. unfortunately i was around the house being a Domestic Extremist all day, and there’s not a lot of point in trying to freak out the cats with subtle intimations that one is from a different timeline or movie or paradigm [...]

Turboflat

Turboflat. fab art and some nice pinups.

hey, they can’t all be existential disgust. sometimes you just want to see some pinups. click it or ticket.

Here’s McLovin!

what? what are you looking at? McLovin is the shit.

Magritte Moment

i adore magritte. a couple of days ago was his birthday. i posted this on fbook for some reason – probably exhaustion- but didn’t post it here.

Magritte Moment from ian fischer on Vimeo.

it’s nice to remember that in the midst of all encroaching banality, cultural degradation,reality tv, and relentless fearmongering, [...]

metro in Hohloma style

or,

one serious paintjob

it’s kind of unfortunate about these craptacular pictures.

in case you’re wondering about Hohloma, it’s a traditional russian folkart style. more info (in english) is here. or you can, you know, USE THE GOOGLE, [...]

Things i would HIT WITH A CROWBAR

John Still Couldn’t Figure Out Why the Better Off Dead Prequel Was Set in 1835. (john cusack as Poe)

i don’t know what this is about, but i feel like i want to invite it over for tea and cakes knock it unconscious, tie it up, [...]

Toob Friday – Abandoned Six Flags New Orleans Tour

so while i’m working on technical tuning matters and being really boring, watch this.

YouTube – Abandoned Six Flags New Orleans Tour.

they built this after i left town, but imo it’s not a huge loss. in fact, its current state is something of an improvement if you like abandoned places and urban decay, [...]

Malleus Ebayificarum

or,

My Fatal Sniping: Let Me Show You It.

i’m kind of mad for spatterdashes lately. i’m not too sure why. possibly it has something to do with never being able to find boots that don’t seem to be built for people with ankles proportionate to their feet – in other words, cankle boots, [...]

The Sartorialist: On the Street….Stylish Ride, NYC

oh, look. the sartorialist’s beyond-questionable trainwreck of a fashion eye has finally captured something interesting.

i guess even a stopped clock is right twice a day.

The Sartorialist: On the Street….Stylish Ride, NYC.

what? what you say? my hair is deliberate, thank you

“what? WHAT was that? ‘Nice helmet-head, Vanna?’ i HEARD you. because i’m STANDING RIGHT HERE. eediot.”

Coutorture: New York Fashion Week: Naeem Khan Spring 2010

Amazing X-ray photographs by Nick Veasey – Telegraph

i absolutely adore x-ray photography, i think because it’s like a cosmic hint into the zen minimalism or pure function that lives in every object.

or maybe just because it’s made of awesome, especially when it’s done with as much care and attention to detail as this guy routinely observes.

Amazing X-ray [...]

while i’m waiting out an inauspicious aspect of my stars to wilfully circumvent a corporate firewall, i’ll clean out my delicious for you lovely people.

here’s a fab modernmechanix retrospective: the AUTO-SCOOTER!

it’s made from jets, but … yeah, no.

okay, okay, here is a self-propelled unicycle-thing powered by an electric motor, stabilized by [...]

the munich Puch

okay, it’s not from munich.

but speaking of awesome things of noble canadia, check out this hardy bavarian-cum-canadian dude that found a Puch in someone’s garage or whatever.
