Ian Wallace gives us a hint
some new work by vancouver based artist ian wallace (honestly, i had no idea he was a vancouverite, but then again, i didn’t know his work before either even though i shouldn’t admit it since he schooled the likes of jeff wall and rodney graham) at hauser & wirth. that through the minimalist bend, he fragments ‘windows’ between art industry and art imagery. calm, sleek and mysterious. by kl

when is halloween again?
its a bit funny that the entire world power is after a group of 20 year old digital rockstar hacktivist, calling themselves annonymous who are set to use their knowledge, as they say ‘at preserving free speech on the Internet’. they just arrested dozens of ‘suspects’ in the us and uk to ‘set an example’ for hacking into paypal, amazon, and various government sites including the CIA. the reason? a solidarity stance with wikileaks founder, and to punish paypal for its efforts to block payment to wiki, and amazon for kicking wiki off their servers in order to silence them. so far this has failed, not to mention that its rather biased and illegal as far as freedom of speech goes… but you know what, who really cares, let’s massage our brains with some pretty pictures. dd where’s your next post? by xy

paper wars: whatever happened to them?
the original Ak47 in paper
the modified Ak-47 by hiroko shiratori
the mills bomb (“pineapple” grenade), initially conceptualized in 1915 by golf club designer william mills, and here in paper.
these are still cool and relevant. the whole idea of “paper” and “war” is already great to start with, but the immaculate, detailed pieces delivered on the words. “paper wars” was an exhibition of paper reproductions of classic weapons, that was shown at the craze gallery in london in 2008. the group show represented a selection of international artists/ designers, like designer ben wilson, product dsigner el ultimo grito, designer pixelgarten, object guru hiroko shiratori and the like who took the idea of cut n’ paste to a new level. since then the group has disbanded and no news has been heard short of their ongoing individual works. a shame as this would be a relevant show today! although not to worry, more wars are sure to come, and unfortunately unrelated to paper! by dd

human audio: bamboo cd player
im sure most people have abandoned their cd’s and cd players, but until there is an affordable digital player that can store the billions of tracks we have afford-ably and in full resolution there will be cd players. human audio transport and player are not not cheap but not only they are beautiful they are amazing sounding alternatives. this model: human audio libretto cd player in bamboo available for approx 7,000 euros, roughly $10,000. click here to contact distributors in your area. by dd
