Vinyl Countdown

I love Vinyl Sleeve Heads, a collection of images which seem to expand the covers of record sleeves into the realm of the everyday.

Lovely collection of 50s and 60s Posters

Bigdaddyhame was lucky enough to find 'a collection of over 200 35mm Kodachrome slides of travel and marketing posters from the 1950's and 1960's'. I'd love to get my hands on a poster-sized print of any one image from this collection, which can be seen here.

Attention to detail

I'm really enjoying the regular posts on the Photoshop Disasters blog. They are both jaw-droppingly tragic and very funny. Yesterdays post made me laugh the most:

bad manners

ultra cool 'smoking manners' adverts. via a welsh view.

last night paul and i watched the documentary on narcolepsy. the program followed a number of sufferers, but my favourite moment could truly have come from the brain of chris morris. cameras captured a meeting of ukan, the uk narcolepsy association; the gathering was completely surreal because of course the members kept falling asleep! three people have to take the minutes in case anything gets missed. it seemed that the sense of farce was not lost on the members (so i guess it's ok for me to mention it here).

do you use a laptop? worried about being the victim of crime? then this product is for you. but what if someone trys to rob you because they want your margarita?

a reputation for subversive stunts that outfox authorities

banksy has some new art.
