Binder Clip Handbag
I’m not a big fashion lover, but sometimes I see stuff that just grabs my attention.
If there was ever a handbag designed just for me, this is it. Its made of bent aluminum handles and a wool felt by Peter Bristol. He has yet to get distribution or manufacturing partners but let’s all keep our fingers crossed that he’ll find funding soon because I need one ASAP.

Clash of the titans
Florian Satzinger, in my opinion one of the best and funniest illustrators, posted this André Franquin tribute today. As I’m a huge fan of André Franquin, I was really positively surprised seeing this illustration.

8 Bit music
8 bit music has a nostalgic NES game feeling. There’s many people creating some really high quality 8bit style covers of modern(and some less modern) pop songs. I found two really great artists on Soundcloud, Afterfield and Gaw 8. Here are some of the songs I liked best and had a great laugh with.
Blondie - Heart of Glass

Sean Cheetham
I don’t really know much about this guy, but his name, Sean Cheetham.
This guy knows to capture character. In his somewhat abstract style, he puts down real, beautiful people in a somewhat sinister ambiance. You can just see there’s a story to every face he paints.
Images from his gallery at Katherine Cone. Visit his infrequently updated blog for more.

Jonathan S. Geller:
I feel like no one else is saying this, and since I’ve not ever been one to hold back what’s on my mind I absolutely will — enough is enough. I’ve had it with incremental updates to Android smartphones every two weeks, I’ve had it with the super-sized ridiculousness, and I’ve had it with all of these marketing gimmicks. Just focus on a quality product, and you won’t have to...
