I learned the hard way that there’s no such thing as a Dream Job, and yet I still fantasise about working at Pixar. These guys are just too cool for words. The story of the ‘secret’ room at Pixar, frequented by Steve Jobs and many other celebrities – The Next Web.

Mangum Mashup
In an Aeroplane Over the Sea is an album I hold near and dear to my heart, and rap is a genre that I don’t, so I was skeptical about this mashup album. Then I heard King Of Jesus Walks, Pts 2 & 3 and My 1st Airplane, and all was right with the world. […]
Dressed for Success
Why did Missouri teen Maura Pozek make her prom dress out of cardboard and paper bags? Because after fashioning the previous two years' outfits out of Doritos bags and soda can tabs, “I had to top myself somehow.” This would be a cool kid to meet, I bet.

The Bustle and Beauty of New York City, Rendered by a Master Designer – Steven Heller – Entertainment – […]
Girl with the Facebook Photo
Hee hee. Profile pic with pearl earring? It would be fun to be Facebook friends with classic works of art. The Degas ballerinas could post pictures of themselves fishing for people to tell them they don't look fat. Gauguin’s bathers would get their own Facebook album titled “Spring Break gettin’ jiggy in Daytona!” And Michelangelo’s […]
Instruments from Inside
Stunning photography from inside symphonic instruments. This (I presume?) violin looks like an avant-garde concert hall. ART DIRECTION: INSTRUMENTS FROM INSIDE on the Behance Network.
Ink and Water
An artist takes photographs of ink suspended in water. These are mindblowing – you’d swear they were fabric. De l’eau et de l’encre | La boite verte.
