Molek FMselamat hari raya pt.1
    After the moon cakes have been scoffed, comes another wave of giving and receiving. Cards wishing the team a Happy Hari Raya litter my table and then there’s this gorgeously put together hamper of chocs, cookies, kuih lapis, serunding and other manner of lip smacking stuff from the thoughtful people at Sony […]
what the…?! pt. 6
Be prepared to say goodbye to the days when you could ogle at nurses during your stay at the hospital for that slipped disk. Speaking of disks, here’s the reason why: the Aizu central hospital in Fukushima, Japan has started employing two robots to help them get work done in the ER. But the two […]
lupe & rhymefest: chicago’s got next
There must be something in the water they pump through those Chicago pipelines. Sure, MC JUICE (no product placement there; that’s really what he calls himself) might have put Chi-town on the map in the early Nineties with his mic-killing freestyles, and Common and Twista have been representing the city’s cutting edge hip hop aesthetic […]
fluffy animals can kill you
I’ve just stumbled upon an excellent site by artist Luke Chueh, who came up with the idea for these decidedly edgy yet cute little critters. Subversive misappropriation of children’s icons is almost old hat (remember the Happy Tree Friends?) but Chueh’s takes on the subject matter is a lot, lot darker. Check out his massive […]
what the…?! pt. 5
There goes the neighbourhood. Li Wei is a Beijing-based artist who specialises in shock performance and visual art. Born into a farmer’s family in a Chinese village, he travelled to Beijing to explore his artistic ideas, and has now had exhibitions in Milan and Madrid. His signature Mirror series has him walking around with a […]
a continuous lapse in judgment, pt. 4
Everyone knows by now that the new Transformers movie is coming out next July 7th. Some people know that Michael Bay (of The Island, Con Air and *egads* The Rock infamy) is directing it. Few people know what the movie will turn out looking like. We can only pray. Well, how’s this for more than […]
a hip hop summit with brains, yeah?
Look, forget what you heard about the Power Summit, that annual hip hop industry elbow-rubber which maps out the course of mainstream rap music and hip hop culture for each year. That’s kid’s stuff, a staged professional wrestling event in comparison to the National Hip Hop Political Convention. Organized in part by Jeff Chang, co-founder […]
i confess….
I never realised how much I appreciated architecture and building design until my trip to the UK recently. Everywhere I went I’d see historical buildings and find myself taking pictures of them. But like all snap-happy adventures, my camera finally ran out of memory space and I had to trash most of these pictures. But the ones I did hold on to were the pictures I took […]
the wooster collective
Pretty heady stuff, this site has. Having been around for a little over 5 years, the Wooster Collective is an online repository of urban art – graffiti, installations, videos, Banksy-style pranks – from all across the globe. The New York couple who started the collective weren’t artististically inclined until… but wait. i’m not going to […]
El-P will sleep when you’re dead
Some of you might be familiar with Definitive Jux Records, New York City’s avante garde, music snob hip hop label whose roster of artists would probably burn to a crisp and just die if they were ever thrown into a Daddy Yankee video. (Probably.) The label has been responsible for anarchy-inducing underground classics from artists […]
