Apparently, I’m on a physics kick as of late.

Another awesome piece by Blu.
Blu and Os Gémeos collaborated in Lisbon, Portugal for this awesome piece of art.
I’ve written about Blu before regarding this fantastic stop motion video done in Buenos Ares, Argentina.
I love this Threadless shirt, called “The Communist Party“, created by Tom Burns. Though I’m a sucker for puns. It reminds me of the Bad Religion song “Atomic Garden” which has the following verse:
And I’m glad I’m not Gorbachev
’cause I’d wiggle all night
Like jelly in a pot
At leats he’s got a garden with a fertile plot
And a party that will never stop
Went out shooting some photos today, for the first time in what feels like ages. This is one of my favorite photos that I’ve taken in a long time. The sculpture is Ecstasy by Dan Das Mann and Karen Cusolito and was installed at Patricia’s Green in Hayes Valley last week. It’s on display until June 18, 2010.
More information is available on the Black Rock Arts Foundation blog.
First displayed at the Burning Man festival in Nevada in 2008, Ecstasy is one of the eight monumental metal figures of the artists’ masterpiece, Crude Awakening. In Crude Awakening, these eight figures surrounded a 99-foot tall wooden oil derrick in gestures of prostration, worship and exaltation. Alone, Ecstasy embarks on a hopeful journey. Instead of throwing her head back in reverie to the oil derrick, she gazes wistfully into the open sky as she steps forward into an optimistic future, free of dependency on fossil fuel.
