Danny MacAskill ‘Imaginate’

June 19th, 2013  •  Posted in news  •  No Comments »

We’ve been fans of Danny MacAskill for a while now. 2010’s Way Back Home, 2011’s Industrial Revolutions, and last year’s Danny MacAskill vs. San Francisco were all killer videos but this year the Scottish street trials rider has outdone himself once again. His brand new film, Imaginate, takes a new turn. Whilst previous projects have focused on locations and journeys, this new film sees Danny take a completely different approach to riding. Enter Danny’s mind and enjoy.

[Sponsored] Prodigy’s New Clothing Line @ PLNDR

June 11th, 2013  •  Posted in news  •  No Comments »

Members-only flash sale site PLNDR has joined forces with none other than Prodigy of Mobb Deep to produce a new line of clothing.

“2013 marks Mobb Deep’s 20th Anniversary and PLNDR.com’s milestone of 3 million members. It’s no surprise then that Prodigy teamed up with Karmaloop and its hugely popular members-only site, to celebrate both achievements with an exclusive capsule collection. “The inspiration for the images is my life.  It’s about what I like, what I do and what I like to wear.  The images are inspired by what’s in my head. I thought it would be great to be able to wear my thoughts,” said Prodigy.

With themes of death, good vs. evil, Illuminati, and more – the collection is literally a visual representation of Prodigy’s most heralded verses. “When we were looking at collaborations with artists, Prodigy was a no-brainer. His creativity and lyricism is unmatched – and that’s something that we wanted to showcase to the entire Karmaloop family and community,” said Heather C. White, Digital Strategist.”

Check out a Gorgeous Video of 5Pointz Before its Gone Forever

June 10th, 2013  •  Posted in architecture, art, news  •  No Comments »

Spanning an entire block and occupied by several artist groups, the 5Pointz warehouse complex situated in Queens and made famous for its 350 spray-painted mural that have covered it since 1993 has its days numbered. A tourist destination for art and music fans over the years, 5Pointz will be demolished in the near future. Above, check out a video paying tribute to the sacred graffiti grounds as shot from a hexacopter drone by production company, Aerial VP. The editing is crap and so is the music, but the visuals alone make it a worthwhile watch.

Aerial VP didn’t give embedding permissions so click over here to check out the video.

Twitter recently created a visualization of all of the geo-tagged Tweets since 2009. The resulting satellite images of major cities depicted through billions of dots (each dot being a tweet, with the colour symbolizing the amount of tweets) is stunning to say the least. Cities in the Visualizations series include Tokyo, Moscow, Istanbul, Boston, and as seen above, New York. They also have maps of both North America and Europe.

Take a closer look below and check out the full series on Twitter’s Flickr page.
