Little wheels. Sick. Unlike everyone else in the world; I didn't mind that period of skating. That was truly a time period where skateboarding made you an outcast. It was special. If you stuck with skating thru the 90's, you are one of the few and far between. Salud!!

Mark Gonzales Round N’ Round - Reception...

2009-10-16T12:37:00.003-04:00

Franklin Parrasch Gallery is pleased to present Round N’ Round – an exhibition, which includes the premier of a new film and sculpture, as well as drawings, poems and correspondences by Mark Gonzales.

Gonzales, who has been skateboarding professionally since he was a teenager is a prime mover in bringing the inherently improvisational, free-ranging attitude manifested in skateboarding’s engagement with the built and graphic environment to a wider audience. Gonzales’s work has been exhibited internationally, and his skating has been documented by Spike Jonze among other filmmakers.

Gonzales’s approach to both art and life embodies a philosophy of perpetual motion. Nothing stagnates; everything connects and continues. His pursuits in drawing, painting, sculpture, poetry, and filmmaking are integrally aligned with his entire way of being. To see Gonzales skate is nothing like watching other professional athletes as they perform. His processes and methods of decision- making are predicated less upon sheer athleticism than upon a personal vision of skating as a medium.

Gonzales charts his movements and interactions within existing space in the manner of an installation artist. Filmmaker Werner Herzog’s remarks in a 2008 New Yorker magazine interview with high wire artist Philippe Petit could aptly apply to Gonzales when speaking of “an ecstasy of truth” in Petit’s performance: “he’s discovering walking in the sky, in the clouds means a form of ecstasy – a quintessential metaphor of an ecstatic moment. There’s a truth in that we can somehow function beyond our limitations.”

Round N’ Round, which includes recent sculpture and video, as well as a selection from two decades of drawings, poems, and correspondence Gonzales sent to Jocko Weyland, author and curator of the Elk Gallery, defines and further contextualizes the artist’s philosophical pursuit of skating. These are brimming over with evidence of influences, cultural touchstones, and historical figures both obscure and well known that Gonzales’ incorporates into his work, creating a singular artistic universe that is profoundly allusive and interconnected. In this sense his visual and textual conversation with the wider world around him is shown to be correspondence on a grander scale, an all-encompassing call and response with everything and anything he encounters in those “ecstatic” moments as well in the detritus and scraps of daily life. As Weyland said in a New York Times article about Gonzales in 2003, “the artist Robert Rauschenberg famously declared that he wanted to exist in the gap between art and life. Mark Gonzales performs in that space every day.”

Gonzales has participated in exhibitions around the world including solo exhibitions at Museum Het Domein, Netherlands, and his now legendary Skate / Ballet performance at Stadtiches Museum Abteiberg, Germany, as well as a show of new work this past summer entitled South West curated by Emma Reeves at the Half Gallery, New York. For the past five years Gonzales’s work has toured the United States and Europe as part of the exhibition Beautiful Losers conceived and curated by Christian Strike and Aaron Rose. Mark Gonzales was born in Los Angeles, CA in 1969, and currently lives and works in New York City.

Viper app allows remote start of your car with iPhone

2009-10-15T18:50:00.001-04:00

As the iPhone continues to introduce apps both silly and indispensable, it should come as no surprise that there's now an app for starting your car remotely. Introduced by car alarm company Viper, the SmartStart app comes in two flavors: a $299 package if you already have a compatible Viper alarm system or a $499 deal for a stand alone unit that comes with everything you need to start operating your car with Apple's Jesus phone. In addition to remote start, the SmartStart app can also lock and unlock your car, open the trunk and sound your panic alarm.

Previously we've seen the ZipCar app for the iPhone tout lock/unlocking capabilities, but this is the first time an app has enabled your iPhone to actually turn on a car. What's next? Well, we're going to start holding our breath for an app that's lets us drive our cars using the iPhone, just like James Bond did with his 7 Series in Tomorrow Never Dies. Big breath, big breath...

Follow the jump for a video of how the system works and what it can do.

Spike Jonze Retrospective at MoMA. Party Tonight!!!!

2009-10-15T18:15:00.004-04:00

Spike Jonze: The First 80 Years
October 8, 2009–October 18, 2009

Continuing its Filmmaker in Focus series, MoMA’s Department of Film presents the first-ever retrospective of Spike Jonze (b. 1969, Rockville, Maryland), celebrating his work as a director, producer, cinematographer, writer, actor, choreographer, and sometime stuntman. Few filmmakers can claim to have earned the undying love and respect of skateboarders and rappers, a beloved children’s book author, and scholars of Lacan and Derrida. But Jonze’s reputation as one of the most imaginative, intelligent, and daring filmmakers working today was established early on with his legendary skateboard videos, music videos, and commercials, and has since been cemented by three features: Being John Malkovich (1999), Adaptation (2002), and Where the Wild Things Are (2009).

The mind games in Jonze’s films—the existential puzzlements and feats of narrative deconstruction—are bedazzling, to be sure, but so is the exuberant physicality of his work, from the graceful (the Dance of Despair and Disillusionment in Malkovich, the skateboarding films that recall the gravity-defying acrobatics of Douglas Fairbanks and Harold Lloyd, the Björk, Pharcyde, and Fatboy Slim videos that pay homage to Hollywood’s golden age of musicals); to the anarchical (Jackass: The Movie, Yeah Yeah Yeah’s "Y Control" music video, the Gap “Pardon Our Dust” commercial); to the endearingly awkward (the stylings of the Torrance Community Dance Group and the silent pantomime of Maurice at the World’s Fair).

“Spike’s a meshuggener,” Maurice Sendak observes, “a really crazy kid who is willing to be independent and get his way ... kind of goofy, adventurous, whacked-out, but dramatically gifted.” On October 8, Jonze, who came up with the exhibition’s wry title himself, participates in an opening-night discussion with Maurice Sendak and exhibition curator Joshua Siegel.

Organized by Joshua Siegel, Associate Curator, Department of Film.

Harold Hunter Day III

2009-10-01T09:53:00.006-04:00

The Harold Hunter Foundation, in partnership with Zoo York, New Era, CCS and DC Shoes, is proud to announce that the 3rd Annual Harold Hunter Day will take place Saturday, October 10th, in New York City.

Established in 2006 after Harold’s untimely passing, HH Day III will once again unite NYC’s skateboarding community for a positive day of shredding in honor of the one-and-only, Harold Hunter.

An iconic figure in New York’s downtown scene, Harold’s larger-than-life personality and generous nature touched the lives of countless people around the world. HH Day commemorates a life well lived by celebrating the things Harold loved most–skateboarding, music, friends, family, good times and of course, NYC.

On Saturday afternoon, October 10th, HH Day III will kick off at the Manhattan Bridge Skatepark on the corner of Pike and Monroe Streets in Chinatown. An all-ages skate jam will run from 1–5pm with pop-up best trick events throughout the day, a massive product toss and beats courtesy of DJ Smoke LES and DJ Ani.

Once the skate jam is a wrap, an after-party will go down from 9pm-Midnight at KCDC Skateshop located at 90 North 11th Street in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Open to the 21+ crowd only, Harold’s party people will enjoy free beverages and live music, with mini-ramp sessions in full effect all night.

As a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, the Harold Hunter Foundation relies on support from the skateboarding community to achieve its mission of providing “inner-city youth with valuable life experiences and opportunities for personal and professional growth by encouraging and sponsoring their interest in skateboarding.”

With this goal in mind, an exclusive run of limited edition HH Day III T-shirts and New Era hats will be sold to commemorate the event with proceeds benefiting the HH Foundation. Both items feature a collage of classic Harold portraits shot and donated by long-time friend and acclaimed photographer/videographer, Giovanni Reda. The T-shirt ($20) and hat ($35) will be available for purchase separately, or together as a kit ($50).

“As Harold once said, ‘Growing up in New York I never thought it would be like this, but now being here in New York it is like this,’” says Mark Nardelli, HH Day co-organizer and CCS brand director. “Let’s keep things popp’n like Harold always did and have a good time skating with his extended NYC family.”

Harold Hunter Day III is made possible through generous support from the numerous people and companies that played an integral role in Harold’s life. This year a special thank you goes out to Zoo York, New Era, CCS, DC Shoes, Shut, Camp Woodward, KCDC, 5boro, UXA, Brooklyn Brewery, Acapulco Gold, DQM, The Professionals A/V and DJ Equipment, Hopps, Alien Workshop, Habitat, Official, Verte, Billy’s Nuts, Frank151, Instant Winner, Famous, Savage, Off Bowery, Autumn, Anything, Rival, Homage, Supreme, Dah Shop, POST, Rockstar Bearings and Red Bull.

He was geeked out to say the least. Biz is probably the most thorough Pro Keds fan ever. So much so that Showbiz (Show & AG / DITC) actually identified Biz by his footwear brand of choice. Check it out:

I'm very sad to post this....but Union has officially closed it's doors. This store was one of the first streetwear boutiques before the term streetwear was even used. Back in the days when i was just a little peon intern with Complex Magazine.....I was psyched to visit Union. MaryAnn always showcased up and coming brands in the streetwear scene, and she made everything look so cool and exclusive in her tiny store on Spring Street.

I remember Union as one of the first accounts for my own brand Hellz, and others like PegLeg, Stussy, Neighborhood, Clarendon, aNYthing, WTaps, and even Ari worked with her back in his PRPS days. I remember spending $500 on a Perks and Mini jacket for my husband even though i was a broke intern. (the charcoal wool jacket, with leather sleeves) We are sad that streetwear is not the same anymore...and something that once was so exclusive and cool is now........uh.............well you know. : I

Foundation wishes MaryAnn and James continued success with their next endeavor. Thank you for working with us in the past years.

They say "NO" to all the corny brands...and only showcase cool ones. That way...buyers don't waste their time and energy walking through all 10 aisles of Miley Cyrus Denim Collections.

Francis Bacon Exhibit at the Met

2009-06-20T23:34:00.002-04:00

On the 16th day of rain in New York City I finally got my butt up to the upper east side to see the Francis Bacon exhibit I've been trying to see. I always get pissed off when i go to museums on the weekends because its usually packed and annoying. Lucky for me, the rain kept some people away and it was tolerable. For those of you that don't know, Irish born English artist Francis Bacon has been coined THE best artist of the late 20th century. Big title. Like Mary would say, this guy is the truth! The 66 pieced exhibit showed off all the angst, weirdness, blood sex and bodies anyone could want. I felt like i was looking into his nightmares and illusions. A lot of carcasses, psycho animal studies, and faceless flesh. The coloring is amazing as well of the scale of the pieces. Once you know the bio of the guy you can understand more of how he has these visions and emotion. The dude that says " love is the devil". I definitely walked out of there a little exhausted from the visual stimulation and thought provoking pieces.. kinda reminded me of a modern Goya's black paintings. My favorite was Blood on Pavement, which is the last picture i put up. Interpret it for yourself, but please go see it in person.

Robot Fish . . . really.

2009-06-09T17:23:00.005-04:00

So i may be a little late on this, but i FREAKED out when i was looking up Ocean Pollution articles and came across this guy. . .let's call him Herman for explanations sake. Herman was developed by the UK-based engineering consultancy BTM Group to check the quality of water. Herman the robot fish is the first of his kind and has tiny chemical sensors that will detect pollutants in the water such as leaks from vessels or undersea pipelines. They are autonomous and run on batteries that are recharged every 8 hours at a charging pt. Pretty sick. As "lifelike" as they tried to makes these guys they still will be pretty noticeable - about 5 ft in length and can swim 4 ft per second and costing around $29,000 each -not your average windup goldfish. Herman and his friends are still being tweaked and are scheduled to be released sometime next year in the waters of the port of Gijon in Spain. So if you're in the water over there and run into Herman and crew you are NOT in a science fiction movie. you are safe- pay respects and give him a fin five for keeping our waters clean!

Jen Stark Exhibit

2009-05-18T13:46:00.003-04:00

Last week my room mate has asked if it was ok if her friend from home could stay with us. Of course i was whatever about it, and when i came in late one night actually met my pixie looking house guest. Much to my surprise it was Jen Stark, the young cutting edge artist from Miami. She was opening her first New York solo exhibit down on ELdridge at LMAK projects. I went down to the opening Saturday and it was packed! Her work is very bright, happy, different and tedious. The exhibit shows her construction paper sculptures as well as a couple of her drawings. Definitely worth checking out before it leaves the city on June 21st. If you don't leave with a huge smile and your heart a little lighter you may want to get yourself checked. . .

Sooo This Is What Is Come To...?

2009-05-07T16:45:00.005-04:00

Really excited about this whole accessorizing phase we all are going through. It seems as if the components around the actual core products are more important then they have ever been at this point. This concept hard drive, by Hyuh Jin Lee, gives your laptop some love (and a dose of virus vaccine). It also recovers corrupted files. It’s an IV drip bag y’all. When you plug it into your laptop, the vaccine software can be operated from your screen. And like any good little drip bag, it blinks and flashes when you’re using it. An innovative product to say the least!

what up FOOOOOS

i found these Acapulco Gold shirts in my apartment yesterday and I think it pretty much sums up 2008 - 2009.

In fact, i think this is a collector's item and YOU SHOULD PROBABLY GET ONE to hand it down to your grandchildren along with that Patek Philippe, and remind them that you survived the Global Financial Crisis.

i have two homies that work for Goldman Sachs...so ill be sure to send them each one...along to their CEO and all the shareholders.

thank you and God Bless America. I love this country no matter what circumstances we are in, and we will get through this.

you can purchase these at Outnumberstore.

SEATTLE....HERE ... I ... COME SUCKAS ....

2009-04-23T14:01:00.003-04:00

Hello

This post doesn't have anything to do with streetwear, or our brands. I just wanted to say that I am very excited to go home to Seattle tomorrow morning. I haven't seen my house in almost a year, and I love seeing mom and dad. They are very cool parents. I will probably check out some Seattle stores, but nothing really changes out there cuz everything is very slow and boring. (That's why I moved back to NYC). I hope the showroom don't miss me too much...cuz i am the life of the party here.

AND I........

GET ORDERS..........

I WENT TO THE SKATEBOARD SHOWDOWN

2009-04-22T12:54:00.007-04:00

Hello

i went to the Harlem skateboard showdown this past saturday with my lovely hubby wubby. I have never been to a skateboard showdown so I was mos def excited to see this wannabe x-games. Upon arrival, I saw the Gonz which was definitely cool. But the highlight of my day was seeing our old colleague Paki Bobby. Still the same Bobby....born and raised New York with all that Acapulco Gold gear. NeWaYzzz....the skate jam was nothing like what I see on ESPN X-Games. Although it seemed pretty disorganized with tonz of sweaty skater dudes pedaling around, trying not to bump into each other...the organizers seemed like they knew what they were doing. Kinda ghetto style. They would just announce the category of the competition, and have 20 dudes skate over a particular jump nonstop. Its amazing that they even have time to breath, because they don't even wait for the kid in the front to land the trick..they just kept goin one after another like hot pockets. Sometimes a kid would crash onto the ground, and the next skater would try his best to not topple over him. Boys are gutsy. The best part was that if a kid won the comp....there was no fancy announcing of the winner, and no fancy poster sized check, the organizer would just hand the kid a hundred dolla bill on the spot. the dude was walking around with stacks of hundos just handing one after another to the next winner. u know if this was in LA...they would have all the biggest companies like Quicksilver holding some televised worthy skate event. we keep it hoood in nyc.

anywayz...check out my pictures! i should sell them to transworld cuz im amazing at taking skate shots.

EARTH DAY!

2009-04-22T12:50:00.002-04:00

Today is the day to acknowledge our one common mother, Mother Earth. Crazy things have been happening all over the world lately and people are finally seeing that we need to help protect her from ourselves. There are so many things that we can all do to contribute to using a little less in our daily lives. Turning off and unplugging lights, computers and other electronics is a small step but helps. Recycling, reusing plastic bottles, and only printing when NEEDED are also small things that won't break you. If you're a little more hardcore and want to help out, check out foundations and volunteer programs in your local city. Foundations like Surfrider.com you can find in most cities and if you don't have the time, but do have the money, make a donation to help our world be a better place! Didn't someone say Green is the new Black?(yeah trendsters!)
If you're in NYC this weekend go up to Central Park this Sunday from 12 to 4pm to enjoy live performances, planting and mulching projects, tree care and composting demonstrations, and environmental education.
So, as cheesy as it sounds earth day is everyday. Show your mother some respect and help her out!
