  3. Great backstage photo from Sofia Coppola’s Marie Antoinette. Are there any backstage photos of Kubrick’s Barry Lyndon involving a Braun record player?

  8. ‘True Spirit’ by Guillaume Paris, 1992. Each word in the sentence is the brand name of the product displayed under it - left to right: cigarette, soap, margarine, cleaning pad, dog food. (at VVORK)

  10. Justice - ‘Stress’. It challenges the definition of ‘music video’, as this short film is a brutal synthesis of Clockwork Orange-like nihilistic violence (perhaps even more brutal: no chance for a “it’s set in the future” sigh of relief). This video was directed by Romain Gavras, apparently the son of  director Costa-Gavras, known for his overtly political films. Good to see his offspring leaves no medium (the music video) as ‘safe’.
  11. An incredible set of shipwreck and sea disaster photos.

  15. CNN is like the worst “news” source. Ever. Here’s ’”Dozens killed in battle against outlaws”. I dig this. It’s Spamusement for sensasionalistic news. (via Neato)
  16. mental_floss: Ramen. Yay! Ramen is by far my favourite Japanese dish. Just a tip for Porto residents: if you ever consider going to that ‘japanese’ restaurant in Ribeira
    that has ‘Lamen’ in the menu, don’t. Avoid it like the plague: they can’t tell the difference between noodles and spaghetti.

    — LOLCODE. I never cared much about the whole LOLCats meme, but somehow this comes across as one of the most human-readable programming languages I have ever seen.
  19. Holy Shit! Driving down a highway in Saudi Arabia. Someone please set the video to The Clash’s Rock the Casbah (via Cynical-C).

  24. Tyler Stout’s Blade Runner Movie Poster - the ‘Final Cut’ premiered in Portugal last week, in Lisbon only unfortunately. I got the DVD for Christmas (this updated version looks incredible, despite a new color correction that defies the laws of physics), but i’d like to watch it big.

  27. Fashionistas. In 1928. Next time I see some urban guerrilla type with a pink sweater and a blinged-out trucker cap, I’ll imagine a racoon coat on him. And I’ll laugh.

    Quietly… 

  28. Remember the famous Rube Goldberg-esque Honda commercial? It appears the UK’s phone directory 118 118 has a tradition of spoofing other advertisements, to brilliant and funny results. See more clips alongside with the originals at Neatorama.

  31. Pablo Ferro’s frantic trailer for Stanley Kubrick’s Dr. Strangelove. Kottke has a rather interesting article about the work of Pablo Ferro.
