James Franco to play Jeff Buckley in the new film, Mystery White Boy
Contributor
Has anyone else noticed how much James Franco resembles the late Jeff Buckley? It’s not just looks I’m talking about. How about their background? They both grew up swallowed by their father’s shadows, were bullied in their Californian schools, and had intense personalities that precariously balanced goofiness with intense melancholy. It’s no wonder Franco was chosen for the lead [...]

YAKKAY bike helmets: this new bike helmet is a hat
Contributor
These YAKKAY bike helmets look nothing like the bike helmets we’re used to seeing. Well, okay, they’re really in disguise.

London-based French illustrator Malika Favre, who illustrated Penguin Books’ new cover of the Kama Sutra in 2011, decided to develop the original set of 7 letters — featuring copulating figures in various sex poses — she created for the cover into the full alphabetical set of 26 letters.

Sky art: focusing on the negative
Contributor
My art professors have always told me to “activate negative space”. And I thought I knew what that meant. But then I stumbled across Thomas Lamadieu‘s fantastic Sky Art illustrations. These imaginative scribbles make the most of being inclosed by buildings. Instead of focusing on the buildings themselves, Lamadieu animates the spaces in between. Take that for [...]

The next big meme: Cardboard Cat Art
Reader Find
I’m not going to pretend that I wasn’t a big fan of the “breading” trend that swept internet cats recently, but I did find myself wondering where we could possibly go from there. We must not rest on our cat-posting laurels. Fortunately, I think there is now a step up. You get all the thrills [...]
