This past friday I celebrated my birthday by inviting my local friends to a BBQ at our home office. I was so excited to see how creative and generous our guests were with the amount of food, drinks and gifts they brought. Although the theme of the party was never officially established as being “Mexican”, some of the many… Continue reading »

For the past month DKNG has been preparing their very first installation piece for a show at the A+D Museum in Los Angeles. “COME IN! A Spatial Intervention” is the brainchild of local Venice artist Ashkahn. The idea behind the show was to showcase some of LA’s finest up and coming artists by allowing them to use… Continue reading »

An app called Rock Show, made for Apple’s new iPad, lets users browse, share and order hand-made, limited edition concert and music posters. And on August 3rd it was announced that Rock Show is now supported on the brand new iPhone 4. What makes… Continue reading »

I just discovered the incredible Reggie Watts. Check out this funky groove he creates with his voice alone.

Live From Daryl’s House came from Daryl Hall’s idea of “playing with my friends and putting it up on the Internet.”  The resulting monthly show is a fun eclectic mix of jam sessions including this one with Chromeo.  Check it out at www.livefromdarylshouse.com

Last Sunday the CBS Morning Show did a special on singer Suzanne Vega. During an interview in her house you can see our Flight of the Conchords poster posted right behind her! It’s best shown around 6 minutes into the video.

When I came across them I instantly became nostalgic and missed the days as a kid when I would make forts out of chairs and sheets with my little sister. These shots take that notion to a whole new level. See larger versions of the photos at Designaside.com

One great, somewhat under-publicized facet of SXSW is Flatstock an exhibition organized by the American Poster Institute where designers of concert posters display and sell their work. Flatstock proves dizzying: the sheer talent involved rivals that of the bands on the posters themselves. Kspace took some time to meet some of the artists and check out their latest work. –… Continue reading »
