Do Knit Disturb: a knitted room at Hotel Pelirocco
In keeping with the ecclectic appeal of their themed rooms, Hotel Pelirocco enlisted knit wit Brit Kate Jenkins to add her crafty touch to one of their rooms. Kate took her task seriously, spending a month knitting curtains and lamp shade covers and crocheting bits and pieces of decor. Even the phone, which looks like a retro rotary, gets a knitted cozy, leaving it looking oddly like a giant, tasty licorice allsort.

TUMBLR: Celebrities with One Tiny Hand
There are some great themed Tumblrs out there, from Casually Pepper Spraying Cops, to Chicks with Steve Buscemi Eyes. Then there’s the life-affirming Fuuuu Comics. Recently, a new Tumblr has found a special place in my heart: One Tiny Hand.

Although I’ve looked pretty carefully the image of Kim Kardashian on there and I’m pretty sure it’s undoctored. Read more
Flex is Kings: a documentary on New York street dance
I’m really looking forward to seeing my friend Deidre Schoo’s documentary on East New York street dance called Flex is Kings. Schoo and Michael Beach Nichols have worked hard, shooting over 300 hours of footage to compile this stunning documentary. Having just won a spot on Indiewire’s Project of the Week, they now have the opportunity to receive a consultation with Sundance, which is an opportunity they certainly deserve.

Castevet are a promising new experimental black metal band out of New York. They have a much more complex and technical approach than other bands of this ilk, revealing post-hardcore and death metal influences as evidenced by guitarist Andrew Hock’s work in deathgrind outfit Biolich and Boston jazz/death/doom band Ehnahre.
With his heavy, all-protein diet, Leatherface probably needs to exercise a little, so this Nike sneaker made from human skin leather should suit him nicely. Actually, this piece is a grotesque and almost too realistic shoe made from latex as a comment on the horror of sweatshop labor
