Trevor Paglen - The Last Pictures Project

Since 1963, more than eight hundred spacecraft have been launched into geosynchronous orbit, forming a man-made ring of satellites around the Earth. These satellites are destined to become one of the longest-lasting artifacts of human civilization, quietly floating through space long after every trace of humanity has disappeared from the planet.

Trevor Paglen’s The Last Pictures is a project that marks one of these spacecraft with a visual record of our contemporary historical moment. Paglen spent five years interviewing scientists, artists, anthropologists, and philosophers to consider what such a cultural mark should be. Working with materials scientists at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Paglen developed an artifact designed to last billions of years—an ultra-archival disc, micro-etched with one hundred photographs and encased in a gold-plated shell. In Fall 2012, the communications satellite EchoStar XVI will launch into geostationary orbit with the disc mounted to its anti-earth deck. While the satellite’s broadcast images are as fleeting as the light-speed radio waves they travel on, The Last Pictures will remain in outer space slowly circling the Earth until the Earth itself is no more.

Hercules NYC presents; IAN LEVY "Wire" Ft. Trey Won Kim

Hercules NYC is proud to present Ian Levy's new project entitled "Wire" ft. Trey Won Kim.

  Ian's ability to combine poetry, story telling , feeling and passion is very unique, and very much moving. This combination of alpha characteristics is what gives Ian his unique voice in the world of Hip-Hop which nowadays is plagued with poor lyricism .
  We were lucky to meet Ian earlier in his music career, when he had just released his LP entitled "The Hourglass". All we have to say is that Ian Levy is different from the rest, and we feel a deep connection with his music. Thus we present to you, Ian Levy's new project :WIRE

New York ; Day and night... at the SAME TIME

                 One of the coolest videos floating around is called "New York; Night and Day". It's a surreal movie which combines video shots taken at the same place during the day and during the night, . The outcome is by far, very captivating.



                        

From the fantastic Animator and Director Philip Stockton , "New York: Night and Day is a combination of non-traditional video time lapse and animation. I filmed day and night scenes from around New York City and combined back into single sequences using rotoscoping techniques. The piece explores the relationships between night and day, by compositing together scenes shot in the same location over a time period ranging from 6 to 12 hours. I hope you enjoy it"

Tim Noble & Sue Webster

The Artists Tim Noble & Sue Webster have done it again. This project entitled "nihilistic optimistic" is a very complex project that reflects light past a bunch of "discarded wood" and other materials. At first sight (without a light reflector), one might look at these compositions and simply compare them as a simple pile of garbage, but once reflected, these give off such an inspiring shade of life. It is truly incredible!.

This exhibition is taking place at the Blain Southern Gallery in London, if you're around, you should go check it out!

Sentry and Ragnarok

From a review posted on The Record Stache "Ragnarok's goal is to use their skills to take down the current hierarchy of the rap game, and with a name that refers to ancient Norse mythology describing the last great battle of the reigning gods, Ragnarok is probably the most metal group in hip hop. I'm down with that."

 My good friend Sentry and his gang at Ragnarok have established their own style, identity, and rhythm. You can tell their music is not just made to satisfy, but to also cultivate the minds of the audience with what sentry is all about. Would you like to find out what they're all about?, I'll tell you, but it's best you find out for your self;

This is RAGNAROK Crew

Forbes calls this the "greatest action sport exploit yet"

 What is it?, well, the Red Bull Stratos project is Red Bull's 5 year long project that will send Australian sky diver Felix Baumgartner about 25 miles above the surface of the earth....and then he will free fall and break the speed of sound (no biggie) . Let me say that again . BREAK THE SPEED OF SOUND. his fall will be approximately 6 minutes.

 The record  jump before this one is took place just 19 miles above ground . This took place back in the 1960's

 This historic event will take place TOMORROW , Tuesday October 8 at  around 8 am (Eastern time). So tune in HERE for the live broadcast tomorrow people !

The Artwork of John Lennon

     For Lennon's 72nd Birthday Yoko Ono has put together an art show that also supports charity. You can go and admire the artist's work while listening to classic Lennon/Beatle songs and even buy one of his original art pieces! "Imagine...there's no hunger", the motto of the art show, is clear to where the money is going. City Meals On Wheels will be collecting donations at the door. As for the art pieces themselves one can find Real Love pieces --which were drawings for his son Sean--, Bag One: 1969 pieces --which Lennon gave to Yoko on their wedding day--, Beatle Lyrics, Solo Lyrics, and many more. The price of the art is relatively fair ranging from $200 to $19,000. We were able to check out this art show and it was quite an experience. Unfortunately they didn't allow photography so we couldn't take pics for you guys but below are some of Lennon's great pieces. Even if you are a Lennon/Beatle fan or not I would recommend you to go check this out.  Information and schedules below:

THINK IN..SI..LE

 This new app called Thinkinvisible is an amazing new concept made to make our brain work new puzzles in a completely different way. according to the creators;

"These are some pictures that make you think.. But not in a usual way! Think Invisible is a unique technique that can tur any picture into an optical illusion and at the same time -a simple yet fun game. The idea is based on the phenomenon invented by Gaetano Kanizsa to show the power of Gestalt psychology, which says that our brain has its own self-organizing tendencies"

Impressive;
