“destino” - salvidore dali x walt disney [via]

i saw bits of this at an exhibit at the museum of modern art last year.  dali had story boarded a short film for disney which was never completed, and years later animators used the images to put the short together.

sometimes to walk in shaded parts of manhattan is to be inserted into a magritte: the street is night while the sky is day.

this might be one of the most brilliant pieces of street art i’ve ever seen.  for those of you who don’t get it, a brief explanation: the artist marcel duchamp has an incredibly famous piece called “bicycle wheel” which features its title object mounted into the seat of a stool (it looks exactly like what is pictured). the above take off on “bicycle wheel” adds a bike chain, attached to a real life bike rack on the street.  anyone know who created this awesomeness?

american apparel now makes sheets.  considering the extent to which i love their triblend shirts and their hoodies, i think i may have to invest in a set of these.  is that wrong?
