PEEKASSO

I have no idea who this artist is, i couldn't find any information... their work seems to be a pop culture bastardization of the best kind, covering so many different ideas and mediums... whoever this person is, they're someone to keep an eye on.

Jungle For Dummies

Jungle is the name given to a style of electronic music that incorporates influences from genres including breakbeat hardcore, techno, rare groove and reggae/dub/dancehall. There is significant debate as to whether Jungle is a separate genre from drum and bass as some use the terms interchangeably. Jungle and Drum and bass started to separate musically in the late 1990s. There is a fuzzy period there where it is harder to distinguish the difference between the two. There is much politics attached to labeling different tracks as a specific genre. Presented here is a choice selection of Ragga/Raggacore & standard Jungle/d&b... a great introduction to anyone interested.

Movie Title Screens

I always a knew a site like this must exist somewhere online... but i'd never been able to locate it before, so i'm very happy to be able to share this now. This site provides a slowly growing archive of title screens from films, while some may consider this boring, i've always found title screens to be very cool & this collection ranges from all over the world & across all different genres, meaning the styles of each of them vary dramatically.

Tom Mason

Tom Mason works in collage, painting, photography & just general messyness... his art doesn't seem beset by rules, sort of like a child were doing it, but if so, this is one talented kid. It's impossible to describe all his stuff through any one or even a small list of themes... it covers far too many for that. All i can say is that i highly recommend him.
