September 28, 2010 By Katrin Frick

See Jason Schwartzman in various states of undress in this Roman Coppola directed viral ad for The New Yorker‘s new iPad app. I’m trying to hate on the obvious demographic skewing (at one point he answers his iPhone with a cigarette hanging out of his mouth while a cup of organic coffee sits in front […]

Paula Abdul and Scat Cat have competition

September 24, 2010 By Katrin Frick

Because it’s Friday, here’s a video of an Indian boy in full Gene Autry regalia jamming out with a Transformer ripoff to a peppy tune about sneaking into a weird amusement park and dancing on the statues… or something. To be honest, my Tamil is a little rusty.

TRAILER: Blank City

September 14, 2010 By Katrin Frick

Today I stumbled across the trailer for Blank City, a doc from first time filmmaker Celine Danhier, which explores the NYC underground film scene from 1977-1987 – a time that ushered in the DIY, No Wave ethos that both captivated and defined the gritty downtown streets and the artists who inhabited them. With interviews from […]

TONIGHT: Opening at K&K Gallery

September 10, 2010 By Katrin Frick

  Tonight, K&K Gallery (109 Broadway) mulls over the passage of time and the effects our technological reliance has on our perception of it through George Underwood’s large format prints.
