Han Solo as Warhol Elvis
31, Jan 2011From this pop-up cafe in Germany. There is a lot of pretty cool art in there, but the Solo print does it for me despite having reached my Star Wars saturation point a few years ago. It’s worth clicking through to see the rest. [via Arrested Motion]

“Fully Flared” – Spike Jonze skate video
31, Jan 2011I like watching skate videos, but only when they land the tricks. I don’t go for the ones with the broken legs or dislocated elbows. That stuff is just gross. This is not that. Lakai Fully Flared Intro (re-mastered in 720p HD) from skatefairy on Vimeo. [via Dangerous Minds]

2010′s Mileage totals

Graham Annable’s “Puzzle Agent”
10, Jan 2011I’m new to the work of Graham Annable, but I had heard so many good reviews of Puzzle Agent (and I was looking for a new iPhone game), that I gave it a shot. Other than a couple of problems I had with the game recognizing where I was trying to touch the screen I [...]
