K a w a s a k i

The works of art by this young female has graced the screen saver of my laptop for many a year, but i want to bless you all with the whimsical magic that is Audrey Kawasaki. Although her last name does sound a little synonymous with a motorcycle company, her works are nothing but pure works of genius.
Audrey attended Pratt Institute, Brooklyn - Fine Arts Painting for two years. Her artwork is a contradication in itself. And that is what i love about it. Such delicate subject matter, drawn on such a rough surface of wood panals.
She has a online journal that she updates frequently http://i-seldom-do.livejournal.com/. Check it out and enjoy!

Better Than Turkey

Talib Kweli, Res, and Graph Nobel new video "Black Snake Moan" off of their project Party Robot. This video was filmed at club Rehab NYC. Another reason why New York is so thankful this holiday.

And if you want to have a live experience, Idle Warship is performing at BB King's in NYC on December 22nd.
My favorite part was seeing was seeing Ibrahim Yaqut, my favorite male model/artist right now. [drooling] Aiight let me go start on this turkey, all this drooling got me hungry. Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Kid+Cudi = Omen

So.....

     Its seems, whenever these feet touch European soil, I bump into an Artist from the U.S. Last spring while at Collete in Paris I ran into Mr. Paris/Tokyo himself ....Lupe Fiasco. Cool guy, that Lupe.

      

So now, I'm at customs taking out my passport and travel info to give to the agent, when beside me comes Kid Cudi. I bump into him again at the baggage claim. I says what up, then he asks me if I'm a producer. (Do I look like a producer to you?), anyway I says yeah. After a lil small talk, I let him hear a track. He digs it (or so I assume, since he listened to the whole beat). Then gives me his email and says hit him up.  And that I will. He went on to say that he didn't know what exact sound he was going for, but when it jumps out at him he'll know... 

(that's helpful :-*).

  

      According to the Alchemist (a book I'm reading at the moment), this particular encounter is what some spiritualists would refer to as an "Omen". To me, this encounter was reassurance that I am indeed vibrating at the right frequency. I am a planet orbiting in its ordained solar system. 

(translation: ...I'm on the right track.) 

I'm just sayin...

 How can they front on me when God got my back.

"...I'll be your American boy!"

....Estelle holla at me! Yes folks, this is RIPMC reporting live from London (yes, i found the apple store in London). I know.. I didn't really tell anyone I was going till I was on the plane. Sometimes you just have to do things like that... nothing personal. Any way, I'll be out here for three weeks. I'll probably do a couple shows while I'm out here. That's the goal. As I check out the Museums I'll post about them, so no worries you wont miss a thing.... except me of-course! 

:-)

     Hold on...Pardon me folks.... I see some lonely beautiful british women that needeth my company. I'll be right back....(!!!)

WRITERS BLOCK!!!

I'm sayin' though.... This is the livest event in NYC, But you already knew that. I mean where else can you be enlightened, learn something new, party, get wasted and forget everything you just learned all in one night....  

Put A "Rim" On It

If you liked it, then you should'a put a "rim" on it!! If you liked it, then you should'a put a "rim" on it!! Oh oh Nooo!!

Ha! I am not to sure how I feel about these shades. Yeah they are all futuristic, but I have the sudden urge that Beyonce is going to replace her infamous metallic gloves with these metallic lens.Both shiny accessories lack any real function, except exerting a blinding glare to the defenseless bystanders. I don't even think she can see through them, kinda defeats the whole purpose.

Which do you prefer?

A. Metal gloves

B. Metal shades

C. Neither

D. I don't give a flying fook

E. Who cares, can't wait till December 18th at The Bowery Poetry Club

Taking Blogging to a Whole 'Nother Level

By "nother" I really mean that "no-other" has ever attempted to blog from such an intimate point of view. Let me introduce you to Rob Spence, a man who plans on making a documentary about changing his prosthetic eye into a wireless web camera.

It is like Big Brother, only it is more like "Big Nother" haha, I kid, I kid.

So the documentary will be called Eye 4 An Eye, a film about the process and he is currently in development with the National Film Board of Canada. Oh, and he lost his eye when he was 11 years old and literally "shot his eye out" with his grandfather's shotgun, while trying to aim at cow dung. The gun backfired and damaged his eye permanently.

I don't know how I feel about this, Writer's Block seems to satisfy my blog longings. But as a treat peep the video of Mr. Spence getting his prosthetic eye placed in, it starts out with a snippet from Six Million Dollar Man.

WARNING THIS IS NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART!! THE EYE GETS REMOVED!!

Don't forget today is the last "Spit That" for the year!! come through and have some Turkey!! YUME Loftspace925 Bergen St, BK@ 7 p.m.
