Club Animals in NYC

I happened upon these folks on the interwebs. They’ve been keeping it silly in NYC.  I’ll admit, this is funny and I would love to happen upon such scenes somewhere in Chicago.  I’m certain plenty of people would just get scared and perhaps alert the authorities, but those people simply scare too easily. Here is [...]

MAKE: Videos

One cool effect of canceling my cable subscription last week is that my limited choice of channels has brought me back to watching more PBS. Some shows are totally intolerable but the ones that aren’t are quality. Already this afternoon I’ve watched This Old House, Hometime, New Yankee Workshop and a new one to me, [...]

Draw on a Box, Repeat

With the world in a tizzy over America’s presidential switcheroo, I figured I’d throw a curve ball of sorts.   My recent entry into the Twitter universe nabbed a bit of my time yesterday, but it lead me to this new commercial. Kinda makes me want to draw something clever on a box…I hope Small [...]

One Hour Wintery Walk – Part 1

I went for a quick walk during Tuesday’s (Dec. 16th) snowfall.  The flakes fell fat all day long, but I waited until a bit after 9pm; once the sky grows dark, the city glows orange with street lights. I made sure to carry my mediocre digi and nabbed more pics than I expected. A few [...]

Meanwhile, besides fulfilling requirements of professional life, I have worked towards finishing [...]

Lightly Drooping

By: L. Jerome: Who arted? Found these pics when I was dinking around on Fun Hight. Lots of weird stuff on that site, but it’ll suck you in and keep you scrolling. I wasted much too much time on the site yesterday, but found a lot of funny pics/vids. It has been a while since [...]

Nice Rack

By: L. Jerome: Ha  Found this at Bike Hacks, so I won’t regurgitate a write-up. Artist David Byrne (you probably remember him from Talking Heads) screwed these installations into the NYC concrete. Lock your bike to a car or a beer; the department of transportation acted as if the beer mug was coffee – doubtful. Nicely [...]

Banksy Currently Active

By: L. Jerome: Banksy – cool; Hurricanes – not cool.Bansky, the prolific UK artist, is still prowling the streets. This time he is eliciting double-takes in New Orleans. Visual Resistance tipped me off to his new activities. VR is very interesting to dig through for a few weeks; I frequent the site for both the [...]

The man is an artist

by joe steve: writer not a drawerDefending the hiatus of L. Jerome last week, I mentioned that he was working on some artistic projects, besides the art of being a word-smith for you all on ATS. I know the man isn’t one to toot his own horn and he is sincerely modest about his abilities, [...]
