Stained Glass Erotica
by Josh Rubin
LA based Juan Martin del Campo jr's erotic themes breathe (or blow) new life in to a classic, though tired medium. What a brilliant contrast! Here's what Juan has to say about his work:
My love of music, design and the erotic help to shape each piece I do. I want the sacred and the sacrilege to shine through each shard of glass. My art is meant to inject humor and titillation in an increasingly safe and boring pop world.
Check out all the naughty-nice pieces, plus some kink infused holiday ornaments on his site, My Secret Life In Glass.
Rarekind
by Josh Rubin
Brighton based RareKind Gallery is the first graffiti gallery in the UK. They're recently focused on merging UK Hip Hop culture and Graffiti art in a new line of Tees. RareKind was started by a crew from North London who moved to Brighton, which has been called the UK's coolest city.
Rip Digital
by Josh Rubin
Yesterday I received 2 DVDs containing MP3s created from 100 of my CDs. Yeah, yeah, I know-- Rip Digital has been around for awhile. In this case, it's better late than never. What a pleasure it is to have someone do the ripping for you! Just place your order, FedEx your CDs (Rip will send you all the packing materials) and receive your encoded music files a week or so later. Easy.
High Tech Hippie
by Josh Rubin
Ok, the pictures aren't flattering so you'll just have to trust me on this one. These hand-made felt cozies from Liz Maly's Felt Cafe are really good. A natural, warm and fuzzy friend for your iPod, the snug fitting case has a protective front flap and a headphone pocket on the back. Whether you're looking to take the glossy edge off your iPod or you just want to express your crunchy self, Liz has you covered. Also be sure to check out the super fly wrist bands.
