Print Liberation Book Trailer permalinkWitness Print Liberation’s totally wacko trailer for their book The Screen Printing Primer which will show you how to start screen printing today using the most basic elements—a screen, some emulsion in a bucket, artwork, a light source and a sink. It’s also worth noting, since he reps Philly, that Ricky Oyola skated to the same Metallica song in Eastern Exposure 3. |

Zooey and Erin (and Ellen!) permalinkIf we admit our weakness for Zooey Deschanel, (we used her music in our latest video remember?) we’ll also mention that we’re softies for Erin Featherston and Ellen Von Unwerth as well. This is Erin’s latest fashion video, in all it’s ragamuffin, pop-influenced glory, directed by Ellen and starring the amazing Zooey. |

Street Smart permalinkTony Cederteg, of Cederteg Publishing “fame”, is also the host of Street Smart, a new fashion and culture series. The rub: It’s in Swedish. |

The Lana Show permalinkIf I were Blonde Redhead, St. Vincent, Fatlip, or Ratatat I would definitely sign up to hang out in a closet with Lana, talk about life and music, and maybe get a tiny bit baked? You’ll be able to catch all the hi-jinx soon come on The Lana Show. (Via Fun Vamps.) |

Viva Radio’s Adolescent Sessions permalinkThe Adolescent Sessions is a monthly event that stashes bands (like Sian Alice Group, pictured above) in the basement of UnionDocs in Brooklyn while the “audience” watches their performance upstairs on screen. Both voyeuristic and creepy, we’re intrigued by this experimental twist on the way we’re used to experiencing bands perform live.

Frightened Rabbit - Heads Roll Off permalinkOne half of Frightened Rabbit (the Hutchison brothers) worked at our Glasgow store before the sun shone brightly on their band. Since then it’s been limos and caviar (er...a record deal with FatCat, touring like madmen, and no sleep) for the boys. Here’s the video for their 1st single off their new album, ‘The Midnight Organ Fight’. |

Cat Power + Early Spring 2008 permalinkCat Power let us use a track (Metal Heart) from her soon-to-be-released Jukebox CD to set the mood for our Early Spring ‘08 catalog video. If you’re wondering why this post is from Miami, as opposed to say, NYC or North Carolina, that’s ‘cause it says so on her MySpace. |

Louis Vuitton - Superflat Monogram permalinkNote our new “history” category. We just think there’s some older stuff that’s made it around the web that is worthy of a reprise. This video, which was an ad campaign for Louis Vuitton, was based on characters created by famed superflat artist Takashi Murakami. Murakami and Marc Jacobs had earlier collaborated to create LV’s multi-colored logo design that features prominently in this video. And to bring this post up to date, Murakami designed the cover art for Kanye’s latest CD. All good stuff. Class dismissed. |

RJD2 - Work It Out permalinkRJD2 tapped dance and media artist Bill Shannon for his ‘Work It Out’ video. Shannon, born with a degenerative hip condition, developed a way to express himself through dance (and even skateboarding) on crutches. Much of the video is all one shot...really nice. |
