Movie shot in IKEA without their permission
by This video by artist Guy Ben-Ner was shot in a few different IKEA stores with his family as they attempted to make a sitcom using the ready-made fits outs as a set. Watch for the regular IKEA customers walking through the shots. Also, check out his other video work, in particular, his recreation of Moby Dick shot in his house with all characters played by him and his young daughter.

Grand Chasm installation by Sand Dune Hike
We are a collaborative art three piece making large-scale spectacle style works for the gallery and the stage. Our recent project has been the construction of the Grand Chasm, inspired by B grade horror and theatrically enhanced natural wonders. This installation took the form of an enclosed platform that housed a bottomless pit that was revealed at the push of a button. Our works are largely inspired by DIY illusions, kitsch and theatrical tricks.
I saw Erik Omen last year and was super impressed by their music. They put on a great live show, with the charismatic lead singer effortlessly swapping microphone for sax and keyboard. I was treated further when i came across the film clip to their single, Payphone. A simple idea rendered beautifully through what looks like a number of digital and analog production processes to produce a nostalgic lo-fi-high-cool effect.
So have you seen that app that turns your portrait into a unicorn version of you set to a kitschy unicorn dreaming hypercolour backdrop? A real party starter (or stopper), this app is a must for anyone who has ever believed that actually magic happens.

Plastic nipples getting painted. Heaps of disembodied plastic body parts. This Zhejiang factory churns out cheap sex dolls for US$16 a bod and apparently sells more than 50,000 sex dolls to Japan and Korea annually. Which makes us wonder: what is the world population of sex dolls like? Read more

Ok, so I’m speaking from first-hand perspective here because as I type on this warm morning, with the faintest slither of sun creeping its way through the privacy blinds in my living room, I’m wearing the very same t shirt that the dude in this photo is wearing. Yup, the same damn one. Perhaps I’m not looking quite as groomed as he is, but hey, it’s a start. Australian fashion label Das Monk is my new favourite t shirt label and this t shirt is more comfortable to wear that a thousand pairs of Ozone socks. Das Monk? Yes it is.
