Creative dishes by Hong Yi

For almost every day last month Malaysian artist/architect Hong Yi (who often goes by the nickname Red) created a fun illustration made with common (and occasionally not so common) food. Her parameters were simple: the image had to be comprised entirely of food and the only backdrop could be a white plate. With that in mind Yi set out to create landscapes, animals, homages to pop culture, and even a multi-frame telling of the three little pigs. The project, which still appears to be ongoing, has been documented heavily around the web.

Super Heroes Meet Egyptian Hieroglyphs

Meet graphic designer and illustrator Josh Ln.
His geeky illustrations impress us everytime, at this case, though, one thing is for sure: we will never look at the Egyptian hieroglyphs on the same way. Ln created a series of ‘hero-glyphics’, where he ‘married’ world famous super-heroes with ancient history – and the results are amazing!

Big Trash Animals

Big Trash Animals

“Big Trash Animals is a series of artworks that aims to draw attention to a current problem that is likely to be forgotten, become trivial or a necessary evil. The problem involves waste production, materials that are not reused, pollution and its effect on the planet. The idea is to depict nature itself, in this case, animals, out of materials that are responsible for its destruction.”

Steampunk Animals by James Corbett

James Corbett takes used card parts and, using them like pieces in a puzzle, creates amazing steampunk sculptures.
Corbett showed artistic talent ever since he was a little boy. Colleagues at his Redcliff school would always tell him he’d grow up to be an artist. But, at 36 years old James was running a motor wrecking business. That’s when he started welding together a bunch of car parts and awakened the dormant talent inside. In just 18 months he closed his wrecking business and became a full-time artist.
James Corbet says he makes these original sculptures because he can and it would be a shame to waste his God-given talent. The Car Part Sculptor has exhibited his works in galleries all across the world.

Classic album covers gets Star Wars overhaul

I’ve got a great series of art for you to enjoy today that mashes together several classic album covers with Star Wars and other classic movies. The series comes from digital artist Steven Lear of Why the Longplay Face? The stuff that he’s come up with is really quite entertaining and amusing. I’ve included a bunch of his creations below, but you can find even more on Facebook. All of them turned out extremely well.

Suicidal Tendencies - World Gone Mad (2016)

Suicidal Tendencies - World Gone Mad (2016) I have a new song stuck in my head: “Clap like Ozzy! Clap like Ozzy! Clap like Ozzy! Clap like a beast!” Hilarious! (see video below!)
Cyco Miko and his suicidal maniacs crew are back and they are wicked!
This is a brand new crew and an absolutely fabulous line-up. Behind the drum kit is a killer machine: Dave Lombardo (ex-Slayer, ex-Grip Inc., ex-Fantômas, ex-Philm, ex-Testament and still active member of Dead Cross and Misfits). Guitaris Dean Pleasants is still here (since 1996), and we’ve also got two other new talented musicians, guitarist Jeff Pogan and bass player Ra Díaz.

King Crimson – Radical Action (2016)

King Crimson - Radical Action (2016)

King Crimson - Radical Action (2016) Actually the full title is “Radical Action To Unseat The Hold Of Monkey Mind” and features a comprehensive account of the 2015 live performance in Japan of the ever evolving creative entity that is commonly known as King Crimson.
It has been stated that King Crimson is not so much a band as it is “a way of doing things”. Different incarnations had quite different “ways of doing things” and this recordings are a very expressive audio and visual statement from the current band. The current line-up of King Crimson consist of Robert Fripp – Guitar & keyboards, Tony Levin – Basses & stick, Mel Collins – Saxes & flute, Jakko Jakszyk – Guitar & voice, Gavin Harrison – Drums, Pat Mastelotto – drums and Bill Rieflin – Drums & keyboards. Never saw or heard before three drummers in a rock band playing together! Talking drum get another sense here!
Robert Fripp commented about this 3 CD/1 Blu-ray set that “this is King Crimson….re-imagined”. Some of the material has not been performed live since the 1970s, although the songs were rearranged to suit the current line-up. Read more King Crimson – Radical Action (2016) ›

King 810 – La Petite Mort Or A Conversation With God (2016)

king-810-la-petite-mort-or-a-conversation-with-god-2016

king-810-la-petite-mort-or-a-conversation-with-god-2016 From Flint, Michigan, formed in 2007, King 810 – formerly known as simply King – are back with their second full length album. Entitled “La Petite Mort Or A Conversation With God”, it’s darker and more disturbing then the debut album was back in 2014.
This is quite murderous. Literally. Because David Gunn’s world is not as comfortable as your usual living room. It’s not live on TV, it happens to you. He speak up openly about real life, poverty, abuses, faith, violence and hate. He spits anger and portray the world as most of us refuse to see it. But, my beloved liars and fools, this is the world we are all living in, can’t deny it, can’t ignore it, one day it will come and get you anyway.
