LED Graffiti

"Halo is an LED spraypaint can by French designer Aissa Logerot. Basically, instead of spraying paint (which, kids, you shouldn't huff), it has an LED that sprays light!

The LED light can change colors and brightness on the fly and while it's powered by an internal battery that can be charged by shaking of the can."


"Graffiti artists can conserve their own gesture they have with an aerosol spray. It is possible to change the color and the brightness of the led to change the graffiti's styles. If the light doesn't have enough battery, the user must shake it to have energy again." via Geekologie

Very very neat-o!

pɹɐpuɐʇs ǝɥʇ Boardshorts by Quiksilver

The Standard hotels and Quiksilver have collaborated to conveniently bring you specially designed boardshorts and bikinis that will be sold in vending machines next to their swimming pools. A cool idea. I personally like the Miami short that is pictured above.

Find more info and pictures at Notcot.

Or if you can't make it to the hotel, buy them directly here.

'Cause this is Thriller, Thriller Night

Springfield Punx has a Simpsonfied Michael Jackson Wallpaper available here.

The Los Angeles Palace Theatre which was featured in the original Thriller video has put up Thriller in their Marquee sign as a nice gesture to remember the groundbreaking video and its superstar. It will remain until mid-August.



Read about it.

More Thriller fun here.



And when you're done, put a click on the jukebox (at the right) and groove to some tunes.

Hello

Just received my Buddy Carr Skateboards Limited Edition Hello T-shirt designed by Antonio Carusone.

A nice touch on the regular packaging:

Wrapping:

Hello!


Get yours and stay cool (from the summer heat) along with the matching skateboard here. (Courtesy of my pal Wangopee)

I guess I have a thing for red and black text on a white tee, as this is quite similar to another shirt I own...by UGMONK

The New Acropolis Museum is Mighty Impressive

Opening Ceremony


"The Museum, designed by the Swiss-born architect Bernard Tschumi in collaboration with Michalis Photiadis & Associate Architects in Athens, opened its doors to the public only a few days ago on June 20th. Located only 300 meters (980 feet) SouthEast of the Parthenon, with an exhibition space of 14,000 square meters and a cost of €130 million, the New Acropolis Museum houses some of the most famous works of classical antiquity. It aims at providing the visitors with a comprehensive picture of the human presence on the Acropolis, from the pre-historic times through late Antiquity, with the advantage of being built on the slope of the Acropolis itself. The three major materials used for its construction are glass for the facades and some of the floors, concrete for the core and the columns, as well as marble for the galleries." via Yatzer

My level of wanderlust is skyrocketing off the charts. Anyone want to go to Greece?
