Miniseum—hit the road kid
I’m on the road! As before in the Miniseum series, each image links back to where I found it—a clicky rabbit trail. As of today I am in Yosemite, tomorrow will be a summit attempt on Half-dome, and at this point I have travelled from Portland > Redding > Nappa > San Francisco > Yosemite. After I leave the Wawona Hotel here near the Park I’ll roll on up... Read More
Marina Abramovic—stare you to death
Marina Abramovic’s three month long staring contest is over. In the end she spent 700 hours staring into the faces of strangers in the Museum of Modern Art. Celebrities, artists, tourists, brothers, monks, humans. She sat in her chair during the operating hours of the museum every day from open to close for three months. She did not eat or use the restroom at this time. Simultaneously,... Read More
Skatebeard by Mr. Bingo
Alright Mr. Bingo, you are officially the master of the pen. They were right to call you that. Or, as HuntingLodge.no calls you, “the guv’nor.” Mr. Bingo was kind enough to share his in-process bearding of the skate deck, which is just as cool as the finished product. I feel like I’d hang all five in my home, the partial-bearded decks being so interesting... Read More
Making/ crafting/ building
What a timely video. I found myself furiously sawing wood panels on my dining table in my kitchen yesterday, spreading dust everywhere. What I wouldn’t give for a proper shop! This video follows the creation of a Corvo Chair from lumber to finished elegance. Shouldn’t he be wearing gloves? It’s almost like he is using affection to finish the chair near the end—I...

Studio Labyrinth
Our studio needed some love in the common space right outside our door. It is a shared space with six doors which usually remain closed. My assignment was to create a sense of value without spending any money. So Jelly and I spent five days painting an 800 year-old Chartres labyrinth – David Bowie was not involved whatsoever. Jelly was the brain behind the measurements +... Read More
We Are 100! Talk to me, Goose
Its our 100th anniversary! Well, our 100th post, so close enough. It was so much fun to pool these images from almost all our posts to check out what we really look like – crazy! We started this blog to share because it just felt natural. After 100 posts, I still feel the strong pull to share when I find something gorgeous or interesting. I’m just scratching the surface,...

Jason Polan draws YOU
What a happy accident, how I found out that Jason Polan is drawing every person in New York. I was doing my usual stalking of Zachary Schomburg and look! he’s up there, doing a reading on 9th street in NYC last August. I found myself scrolling and scrolling through his drawings of the people around him and didn’t even realize I had been captivated. What a little hermit... Read More
Kate Consumption NOW
The one, the only Kate Bingaman-Burt opened up Land Gallery on Friday. Balloons, pencils, colors, madness. And the cocktail dress of the decade. Such a star, and I so love that her lil gift package of rip-offs given to her by Frank was captured in that last photograph. So that is called joy! The overall feeling of the show could be surmised as the collision of sunshine + love... Read More
