Galactic - "Do It Again" featuring Cheeky Blakk

Galactic - "Do It Again" feat. Cheeky Blakk - watch more funny videos

My buddy, director Joey Garfield just sent me his new booty shaking music video for Galactic's "Do it Again" from the new album 'YA-KA-MAY'. He claims this video is "by far my most ridiculous to date so I wanted to make sure to share." And he's telling the truth, it is ridiculous, so I wanted to share with you too. Enjoy!

Mel Gibson in "Gimme Back Ma Son"

Okay. I figured out a way to watch content with Mel Gibson again. More mental remixes please.

LA - Reclamation Reads (02.28.10)

RECLAMATION READS

A Reclamation Event in conjunction with Aquarium

Date: Sunday, February 28th
Time: 7:00 PM

Location: At Sea and Space Gallery (4755 York Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90042, www.seaandspace.org)

Coupled with the AQUARIUM installation, this reading is an extension of a series of environmentally conscious pseudo religious works called RECLAMATION, whose mission statement asks its participants, “What if people took the environment as seriously as religion?” Reclamation Reads recontextualizes this statement and asks what the world would look like if everyone decided to take the environment as seriously as they take Work - that obligatory, livelihood sustaining, spiritual, dogmatic, rewarding, ritualistic daily grind.

Join us for a FREE light reception and watch as our participants reclaim, rework, reuse, recycle, reform, reduce, and reprocess these ideas.

'Akihabara Majokko' by Murakami and McG

Kirsten Dunst & McG's 'Akihabara Majokko
Uploaded by allbrice. - More video blogs and vloggers.

I love anything Murakami. However I'm a little perplexed by this candy-colored music video he commissioned starring Kirsten Dunst and Japanese tastemaker, Hiroshi Fujiwara. I'm not a huge Dunst fan but I do like her in this video. The shots are easily recognizable as Charlie's Angels director, McG. I wish the song selection had been a little more cutting edge than "Turning Japanese" by the Vapors though. That song is played out.

LA - Kimberly Brooks' "The Stylist Project" (02.27.10 - 04.03.10)

Kimberly Brooks: The Stylist Project, February 27 – April 3, 2010
Opening Reception: Saturday February 27th, 2010 6pm - 8pm

Taylor De Cordoba is pleased to present The Stylist Project, a solo exhibition of new oil paintings by Los Angeles-based artist Kimberly Brooks. The exhibition will run from February 27 – April 3.  The gallery will host an opening reception for the artist on Saturday, February 27th from 6pm-8pm.

The Stylist Project is the first in a series of portraits of renowned stylists and fashion industry insiders who have styled themselves and posed for the artist. After delving into deeply personal subject matter for her last two exhibitions – “Mom’s Friends” in 2007 and “Technicolor Summer” in 2008 – Brooks shifts her focus outward with this new body of work. Here, she broaches the red-hot themes of fashion, style and those omnisciently responsible for setting the trends.

Band of Bikers

February 25 – March 20, 2010
Book signing: Monday, March 1, 5-7 pm

In the basement of an apartment building in Manhattan, Scott Zieher discovered a pile of photographs among the discarded effects of a recently deceased tenant. Exhibited for the first time at ZieherSmith and presented in a new publication of the same name from powerHouse Books, these photographs from circa 1972 offer an intimate portrait of a group of gay bikers in the city and the woods, and a touching snapshot of a historical subculture at its carefree zenith.
