For this year’s Halloween festivities, Eric Testroete created a papercraft version of his own head. The inspiration behind it came from big-head modes in certain video games.
This is awesome. I want one done for me too!
You can see more photos of Eric’s papercraft head on Flickr.

The first time I heard of Diane Birch was at the Mat Kearney concert I was at in September. Her performance there was pretty great and her voice was even better. Her sound is a mix of soul, pop-rock, and blues — a sound that I feel is perfect for a quiet day around the house (especially if it’s raining like it is right now in NYC).
Check out her Myspace to hear some tunes and if you’re so inclined, do purchase her album at Amazon.com
(otherwise, you know what to do).

I remember watching the MTV Video Music Awards this year and taking note of the beautiful transitional video pieces shown on screen. I had no idea who made them at the time, but I made a note on Twitter about how lovely they all seemed. It turns out that an LA-based graphics design company named Prologue are responsible for the look and they’ve been working with MTV on the Video Music Awards motion graphics for the past 3 years.
If you have no idea what I’m talking about, head on over to Motionographer to watch all of Prologue’s VMA videos back to back. Is it weird that MTV asked an LA company to do NYC-related video promos?

It’s the weekend, so enjoy this beautiful set of photographs called Rust Belt from photographer David Zaitz.
I dream of places like this.

Seriously? Is this what it means to be in the urban apparel scene nowadays? These cereal T-shirts from Swagger are hideous.
