Virgin Mary toaster

We already know that you won’t feel like going to church on Sunday morning to confess your sins of the last Saturday night. But now at least you will be a little bit closer to the church with this holy toast. The steps are easy. Put a slice of bread in the toaster and then God’s deed will make an image of the Virgin Mary on your bread. And the best part is that wiith every bite of this holy toast, you will bring peace to your soul. Yes, the one you’ve been looking for so long. Amen. Crunch.

And then there’s the World Championship, which takes place annually in Toronto. Now, quick choose your weapon. We take Scissors.

There’s something quite captivating about the muted tones and soft textures of Anna Fraser’s photographs. The Australian designer has a very precise sense of framing, which is reflected in the slightly insidery, but beautifully balanced perspective that her work provides on places and scenery that only few people ever get to experience. By her own admission, Fraser ‘prefers things that are not usually very fashionable. Like beige, lots of beige and maybe a bit of taupe’. We think she might be onto something. Read more

I haven’t been this excited by a band in a long time. Florida’s Black Kids have crept under — and now over — the radar through a demo and some serious internet buzz from NME and Pitchfork. Not only are they ridiculously good, they’ve also offered their four-song demo — Wizard of Ahhh’s — for free on their MySpace page. Sweet.

Creative advertising packaging

Despite the intentions of many, it’s not so often that advertising — as an industry — truly thinks outside the box. Yet, when executed well, clever eye-catching advertising actually works. It does. As these examples will attest to. Read more
