Brilliant animation for the song Two Against One

Check out this great new animated video for the song Two Against One from the album Rome by Danger Mouse and Daniele Luppi. Directed by Chris Milk and Anthony Francisco Sheppard, it’s a great accompaniment to the vocals of the music maestro himself, Mr Jack White.

Animated music video by Chad Vangaalen

Chad Vangaalen’s music is fantastic. He conjures up some very bizarre stories in his songs and completely does his own thing. Not only does he create music, but he also animates his own music videos, which are equally as amazing. It’s as if he is from another world.

Hollow Trees House Hounds video

Cate Le Bon’s music video for Hollow Trees House Hounds has humans laying eggs, nightmarish animated creatures, and cardboard artillery. That’s just the beginning.

Pop Bottles

Anna Utopia Giordano has created these Popbottles for an art exhibtion as a way to raise ‘social awareness on topics such as alcohol abuse by teens, alcohol abuse by pregnant women, the disinterest of some parents towards their children (abandoned for days between toys and video games), [and] how far marketers can go to gain the attention of their younger customers’. Oh, ok. We just think they look kinda cool. Read more

How the Internet’s biggest sites looked at launch

How the times have changed! Check out these awesome screenshots of how some of our favourite websites looked at the very moment they launched back in the day, then be grateful for the savvy workings of digital designers.

Hire a professional dumper to end your relationship

Marketing executive Jonathan Kiekbush has a pretty interesting night job: he breaks up people’s relationships. That’s right, for a small set fee (£5 plus expenses), he’s a professional dumper. Trivial fact: most of his clients are men. Not surprisingly, as our friends at Oddity Central have noted, he’s single himself.

Photographer Carl Kleiner is really good at getting a chuckle out of people with his amusing, clever, and ofter suggestive arrangement of objects. His Macho! and Sex series are both winners, and there’s a really direct graphic sense in all his work that makes it succinctly communicative. Read more

Here’s a pretty spot-on map of what movies best represent each state. I think it’s pretty hilarious that Delaware gets Wayne’s World because of one line in the movie. Are there any movies that take place in Delaware that you can think of? What a forgotten state.

I don’t care if Jimmy Hendrix was dragged kicking and screaming from where he lies, put through a torrid round of detox, and handed an invisible guitar – a Flying V carved out of the bones of Robert Johnson. It would still pale in comparison to this. Read more

Yes it may be cliched to acknowledge it, but having lived for some time now down the barrel of the loaded gun that is New York, it really is difficult to be cynical — as the folk laureate Rufus Wainwright is — about this city. Read more

Remember how the forgotten (and the forbidden) places attracted you as a child? Well, I think I never got past that phase. I haven’t had the courage to do any big scale explorations yet, but while I’m planning for it, Forbidden Places is a good place to see what other people are finding in hidden places around the globe. It’s very eerie and intriguing. Read more

Baltimore’s Teeth Mountain create pulsing, shamanistic, tribal-sounding tracks from a bunch of floor toms, cello, mandolins, keyboards, saws, and whatever else they can get their hands on. The chaotic music they make is noisy, roughly-hewn, and impulsive-sounding, but that seems to be the point. They’re trying to evoke a sort of post-apocalyptic primitivism. It will be interesting to see where this collective takes their aesthetic.
