Cool Hunting

The crazy folks at LVHRD are at it again, drawing some big names for this year's PHTHRD event. Jonathan Harris, Joseph O. Holmes and Elizabeth Weinberg will be live and in person next Tuesday, 25 March 2008, taking 150 Polaroids (R.I.P.) at the event in order to craft a mosaic narrative on the spot. All skilled photographers that use their media to tell stories, the event offers a chance to watch them work and maybe even be discovered. LVHRD's latest VDO featuring the photographers explains it all, through, what else, Polaroids.
LVHRD is always an "event," but this years PHTHRD is an absolute can't-miss and tickets are selling like bottled water. We wish we could tell you where it will be held, but all we know is it will be somewhere in Brooklyn. You're gonna have to buy a ticket to find out. As LVHRD likes to put it, "welcome to the mystery."

We hope you've been dusting off those dance moves for tonight's LVHRD event, DNCHRD (aka "Dance Hard"). The concept is a dance party fueled by live music, color-coordinated dance crews, choreographed moves and an interactive art installation and in action it's sure to be a sweaty affair like most LVHRD jams. The always-innovative Eclectic Method will be deejaying all night. VJ pioneers, they mix...
Flavorpill's One Step Beyond Party is taking over the American Museum of Natural History once again this upcoming Friday, 14 September 2007, this time with Bonde Do Role, Plastic Little and King Britt.

Boogie, a photographer born and raised in Serbia and now based in New York, has a love of chaos, violence and danger, which perhaps can be attributed to growing up in war-torn Yugoslavia. His first book, It’s All Good, is an ode to the gang members, prostitutes and junkies of notorious New York neighborhoods Bushwick, BedStuy and Queensbridge. His stark photos show junkies shooting...
