Tee Tee Tee
It's easy to get lost for hours in the weird and wonderful work of Amsterdam artist Jennifer Tee.
That Velvet Look
Looking to class up the place? Consider your search over. I just came across velvetpaintings.com whose motto (I shit you not) is "Quality you can FEEL." I can't help but be hypnotized by their selection of heroes, legends, mythical creatures, rainbows and monsters all on beautiful authentic Tijuana black velvet. (Via io9)
United Nude Lo Res
The Lo Res heel is a part of United Nude's semi-automatic design method, where an object is scanned in and then generated at various resolutions. Such things happen when Rem Koolhas gets into footwear.
Domo x 7-11
While 7-11 hasn't won any awards for cleanliness (at least not the one by us), they do get props for their new Domo-themed accoutrement. Mmmm, slurpees... (Via Lovely Package.)
Zimtstern "Leaves"
Swiss snowboard company Zimtstern knows how to make the most out of a beautiful fall day.
The Event
Starting on Wednesday in Eastside, Birmingham, is not just an event, but The Event, a five-day contemporary arts festival. Events within the event include artist Mark Essen's roaming record exchange, an on-site creation of the seventh issue of An Endless Supply, and a performance of "and you shall know us by the trail of Morris Men," where the Morris Men will escort the audience from venue to venue and kick off the proceedings with a dance.
Unmentionable Cuisine
Calvin W. Schwabe's Unmentionable Cuisine was published in 1979 and continues to be the best of its kind. What kind is that? You'll see. Thank you, Google Books!

My Parents Were Awesome
So, once you stop hating your parents and think they're ruining your life, you start to realize 'Hey, my parents are actually kinda cool.' Then, later, it hits: That inevitable moment when it suddenly dawns on you that your parents were not only awesome, but probably cooler than you.
Technicolor Dreamcake
Everything looks better in rainbow. Got a birthday coming up? Unleash this monster on the world.

Mason Taylor at Urban Outfitters
This Saturday at 4pm, catch Mason Taylor (from the Boston-based band A'Tris) for an in-store performance at the Harborplace Urban Outfitters in Baltimore (301 Light St.).
Sketch2Photo
Sketch2Photo, which takes a labeled sketch and turns it into a photo montage, is mind-blowing, to say the least. (Via Kottke.)
We Are Cat
We Are Cat is the Venezuelan-duo of Carlos and Humberto, who have a star-splattered new collection that even includes some out-of-this-world fanny packs.
Beatles Rock Band
There's finally a reason to bust out the plastic instruments again. The
Beatles Rock Band is pretty much everything I wanted it to be, maybe
even my favorite game of the year. You can play with up to six people,
sing up to three part harmonies with three mics (Lips wireless mics
work too, bonus!) and also play bass, drums and guitar all at once. You play the 45 song story through the
Beatles career starting at the Cavern Club with mop tops and ending as
hair farmers on the Abbey Road rooftop. I was pumped to see Harrison
songs like "Something" and "Taxman" in there too since I love 'the Quiet
One.' The best part about playing this was seeing non-gamer friends go from "I'll give
it a try" to asking which song we should do next... three hours later.
Leandro Erlich
One of the double-take inspiring projects of Argentinian artist Leandro Erlich is this 'Shattering Door,' which looks like a moment, frozen in time, right after the Incredible Hulk got all pissed off.
Bento for Kidlet
The ideal lunch is tasty, healthful, and graphically pleasing. Don't
underestimate the importance of this last one. Bento for Kidlet never does.
