Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaah kid!
Creative Rec loves the kids. Check out our Spring and Summer Collection at the Children's Club starting Sunday October 5th till the 7th and the Javits Center booth 8917!! Come get your cute on.
SHAE KNOWS PLAY CLOTHS!
N*E*R*D stands for No-one Ever Really Dies. Shae appears to keep away from the spotlight, compared to his band mates, Williams, and, to a lesser extent, Hugo, who are both members of the production duo The Neptunes. During a recent interview by The Source Magazine, Shae stated that this is all intentional as he doesn't wish to pay the price of fame, such as being mobbed by masses of fans or having to hire a bodyguard. He cites The Beatles as the rock act which was his main influence and inspiration. (WIKIPEDIA!)
N*E*R*D is playing tonight at the Metropolis!
56 Leonard Street, New York / Herzog & de Meuron!
This 57-story residential in the Tribeca area will house 145 residences, each one with its own unique floor plan and private outdoor space. This typology makes the building look like a stack of houses, away from the traditional skyscraper form. I wonder how the concrete structure works on this building, which was done by consultant firm WSP Cantor Seinuk (who also worked on the Freedom Tower).
Schedule
Site Preparation: Spring/Summer 2008
Construction Commences: Fall 2008
Projected Occupancy: Fall 2010
Developer/Sponsor
Alexico Group LLC, New York, NY
Principals: Izak Senbahar, Simon Elias
Client Representative: Eric Anderson
Brick and Timebomb Spot in Boaz's new video...
Pittsburgh's Brick Diggler, long-time Alife retailer and Med's cousin, appears in the new Boaz video. Brick is the white dude with tattoos and stacks of money sipping on the cocktail. Looks like there are some shots of the shop, as well. Brick is doing big things in Pittsburgh. Mad love to Timebomb Spot and Tuff City crew.

glenn marshall: metamorphosis!
Metamorphosis from Glenn Marshall on Vimeo.
Programmed entirely in processing, a new open-source programming language designed specifically for animation and moving images, computer artist Glenn Marshall has created a subtle, beautiful, and mesmerizing world. The soundtrack is “Corsair”, by one of my fave ambient-electro outfits, the amazing Boards of Canada.
More Nasty...
Nas photographed by Spike Lee for the Source's 20th Anniversary issue. Seen here wearing Alife's The Professional fitted baseball cap by New Era (drops Holiday '08).
LUMINODOT!
Right now Luminodot is only up for grabs in Japan for about US $96. I’ve read that some have popped up on eBay for about US $130. The retro/kitsch/designer/geek/artsy market for this is huge, so I’d be shocked if it didn’t make its way to at least a few North American retailers some time soon!

Chris Vidal - Obsessive Sneaker Disorder
Our favorite Sneakerologist, Chris Vidal, on the Tyra Banks show. This piece originally aired on October 5th, 2006. Thought I would let all the young bucks see how the O.G.'s do it.
