Too Much
Too much.
There's a biennale that opens every 3 days. So they're making a biennale that deals with that very matter.

One of the the craziest design websites I have seen in a while has the gayest preloader ever.
Bad t-shirts are so good.
I know what exactly what I would do with this font. Magic.
Too much that I can't even bring myself to write. The internet is so unreal and the world of objects, physical exchanges and realness is reigning.

6th International Caribbean Biennial
I was reading a book in the book store today after having a tea with Shaun this evening. The book was a whole bunch of interviews with living artists. I decided to read about Maurizio Cattelan. And stumbled into an adventure starring: Olafur Eliasson, Gabriel Orozco, Tobias Rehberger, Pipilotti Rist, Vanessa Beecroft, Rirkrit Tiravanija and others... 6th International Caribbean Biennial

Small, round, and shiny is at once recognizable as a button pin. Its material lends the piece a number of meanings: part fashion, part art and part do-it-yourself homage. Polished, monotone, and missing a graphic statement like most buttons, the piece presents a blank, yet reflective, statement about statements. In his own words Tonik suggests: "It's quite simple, man: I had this idea for a solid gold button and then I went and I made it. I showed it to a few people. They want to touch it. I don't know what it means but I've been thinking about environment lately: granola, organic food, Greenpeace, give-a-hoot-don't-pollute and all that. It's sparkle is star shine like and there's seven of them; seeds for the beginning of history you know what i mean?"
It's the new millenium. Snap out of candy land kids.
