WASN'T HE ALREADY DEAD?
To my surprise, and probably many others, J.D. Salinger died today. And it's no surprise either. Reclusive in nature and lacking much published material since the landmark The Catcher In The Rye, let's take a moment to appreciate this literary legend.
January 1, 1919-January 27,2010
According to Gawker
Supposedly, he's still been writing constantly over these last 50 years. The battle over his unpublished work will probably be drawn out and bitter, but a nation of former insufferably precocious little bastards waits with bated breath.
CRAFTSMAN GETS CRAFTY WITH THEIR ADS

NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC SETS THE TEABAGGERS STRAIGHT
National Geographic has conducted an interesting study: Comparing the cost of health care around the world to each country's respective life expectancy. We already know the United States has the most expensive health care, but what's worse than overpaying for health care, living in a country that's in the bottom half in regards to life expectancy. Put that in your Tea Bagging pipe and smoke it.

SUPER HERO CULTURE
I love Ian Pool's work. This series puts a twist on super heros. It shows them in our very own human environment making them look as mortal and fragile as everyday people. Via cyanatrendland.
THE PINK & BLUE PROJECT
A widely exhibited project by Seoul photographer JeongMee Yoon. The series deals with children's preferences for blue and pink colors based on gender, which she believes is not influenced by cultural background, but by modern universal trends such as advertising. In 2006, she received her MFA from the School of Visual Arts in New York. Via Feature Shoot.

THE ARTVERTISER
This project considers Puerta del Sol Madrid, Times Square New York, Shibuya Tokyo and other sites dense with advertisements as potential exhibition space. The Artvertiser is a hand-held, augmented-reality project exploring on-site substitution of advertising content for the purposes of exhibiting art. By artist and developer Julian Oliver, with collaboration of Clara Boj and Diego Diaz. A neat way to exhibit art on a mobile platform.
RENEWABLE CLOTHING BY FERNANDO BRIZIO
Italian designer Fernando Brízio came up with this great fashion idea. By placing colored felt-tip pens in the pockets of the dress its appearance changes over time. within an hour - to one and a half hours the colored ink bleeds into the fabric and creates a one-off design for each occasion. the owner can then clean the dress and color it in a different way for each time they wear it.

SPIKE JONZE + ABSOLUT = ABSOLUT MOVIE
Premiering today, a collaboration between Absolut Vodka and acclaimed director Spike Jonze. Below you will find the trailer to this 30 minute short feature. Drink up, it's Friday! Via: I'm Here (official page)
teaser trailer at the official film site www.imheremovie.com.
From Spike Jonze:
"It was a pretty incredible opportunity," says Jonze. "They (ABSOLUT) didn't give me any requirements to make a movie that had anything to do with vodka. They just wanted me to make something that was important to me, and let my imagination take me wherever I wanted. And it wasn't like working with some huge corporation where I had to meet with committees of people. It was just a small group, and it seemed like creativity and making something that affected them emotionally was the only thing that really mattered to them. I got to make my first love story. It's about the relationship between two robots living in Los Angeles". I'm Here will also screen at the Berlin Film Festival in February, followed by a global release in March on www.imheremovie.com.

THE PICTURES IN BETWEEN BIG AND SMALL THINGS
Kevin Van Aelst's work examines the distance between the 'big picture' and the 'little things.' His photography depicts these parallels by looking at everyday things, creating some kind of explanation or order to the everyday. via environmentalgraffiti.com
