Wiener-Dog is an interesting new film by writer/director Todd Solondz (Storytelling, Welcome to the Dollhouse, Palindromes) that tells four different stories all connected by one common character – a small, cute dachshund puppy. Starring Danny DeVito, Greta Gerwig, Julie Delpy, and Ellen Burstyn, Wiener-Dog will be released in cinemas from the 24th June 2016. Looking forward to this one 🙂
Illustrator Brecht Vandenbroucke pokes fun at our addiction to social networks, smartphones, and an ultra-connected life in this series of satirical illustrations, using dark humour and a deceptively childlike style, to critique the excesses of modern society. You can also check out more of Brecht’s creations on Instagram. Awesome stuff! 🙂
Eclectic Method have nailed it again with this awesome remix of the smash hit Marvel movie Deadpool. LOVE it! 🙂
A great short film directed by Géraldine Gaston, Alexis Magaud, Flora Andrivon, Maël Berreur and Soline Bejuy, students from Supinfocom Arles/MOPA school of CG animation, Chaud Lapin is a strangely captivating short film that reveals the romantic lives of three animals – a warthog, a snake, and a rabbit. Fantastic work! 🙂
A collaboration between Docubyte and INK which revisits all the data monsters that populated the early days of the computer industry, Guide to Computing is a minimalist series of digitally restored photographs honouring the vintage computers of yesteryear and their unexpected beauty. Awesome stuff! 🙂
We love this selection of work by Eric Chow – a UK based illustrator from Hong Kong who started his illustration career after graduating from London College of Communication in 2012 and produces illustrations with a powerful surrealist, often humorous, style. Awesome stuff! 🙂
We love these awesome photos of the iconic 1950s Greek cafés & milk bars of Australia that brought ‘exotic’ food and art deco glamour to our suburbs and country towns. Since the 1930s, Greek families had opened cafés & milk bars across Australia at all hours, seven days a week with some having American names like The Niagara, Astoria and The Paragon and decorated in glamorous art deco style while serving coffee, milkshakes, fancy sundaes, steak and eggs with chips. For hundreds of images and stories, check out the website for the new book Greek Cafés & Milk Bars of Australia, which documentary photographer Effy Alexakis and historian Leonard Janiszewski have spent 30 years researching, and as it turns out, were uniquely Australian. Just another reason to love this country! 🙂
Directed by Seth Ickerman, TURBO KILLER by Carpenter Brut is an awesome synthwave track that references 80s electronic music and culture. The music video, which you can watch below, is basically the coolest grindhouse sci-fi/horror car chase, enhanced by incredibly high production values and an amazing sound. Love it! 🙂
We love the work of artist Rocky Davies who has created these awesome visual mashups of iconic pop cultural heroes & villains and music hits from the 1980s and 90s. So very cool! 🙂
We love this selection of architectural photographs by artist Dennis Ramos who captures the clean lines, geometric shapes and lights of an urban environment in dark imagery that plays with powerful contrasts. For more of Dennis’ amazing work, check out his Instagram account – it’s sensational stuff! Happy Friday, everyone 🙂
