The Art of Trash

Tim Noble and Sue Webster first began casting their own shadows through the following pieces of industrial art since 1998 and they have been doing so ever since. Their first piece, Dirty White Trash, was created using six months worth of actual garbage and two expired seagulls, while the the rest of their sculptures were made using studio pieces and brass metal... except for their most recent piece, which uses various mummified animals.

Short Film :: "The Third & The Seventh"

Below is a short film that was made entirely by Alex Roman who created all the computer-generated models/textures, including all the post-production editing and sound mixing as well.
Clearly Roman is an incredibly talented and architecturally preceptive artist, and we suggest that you watch this piece work in fullscreen:

The Beauty of Technology.

There is a music festival called Sasquatch Music Festival that takes place annually at the Gorge in Washington and tonight is the line-up announcement party that features Atlas Sound, Surfer Blood (who will most likely be playing the festival themselves), and some other musical guests.

With technology and the ideas within it becoming more and more fucking wicked every day we are watching the show live and streaming through the crazy world of blogs/twitter. Atlas Sound's set is just finishing up, with Surfer Blood to follow, and we will list the acts that get named as their names are named. greenT will be attending the 2010 festival and we are going to cover great bands under the control of dancing, alcohol, drugs and lovable chaos as it occurs at the bitter end of May.. but for now, enjoy the rest of the show RIGHT HERE and here are the artists (so far) at 2010 Saquatch Music Festival:

Although the line-up looks like it was compiled in 2007 ..hrmmm.. there are a bunch of great acts (ie. Ween, Pavement, Why?, No Age, Massive Attack, Simian Mobile Disco, Broken Social Scene, LCD Soundsystem, the Mountain Goats etc.) and crowd pleasers like the National, My Morning Jacket, MGMT, Vampire Weekend, Dirty Projectors, the xx.. but generally the line-up consists of a ton of bands that everyone has seen years ago... (fuck Kid Cudi/Wale and get Freddie Gibbs/Jay Electronica!)

Guess that booze and those unprescribed sweet nothings might come in extra handy that weekend.

Friends Around the World :: Nicaragua

Nicaragua is the largest country in Central America and is bordered by Honduras to the north and Costa Rica to the south. The first attempt to conquer what is now known as Nicaragua was by the Spaniard Gil González Dávila, whose Central American exploits began with his arrival in Panama in January 1520.

Nicaragua became a part of the Mexican Empire and then gained its independence as a part of the United Provinces of Central America in 1821 and as an independent republic in its own right in 1838. The strip of the Caribbean coast known as the Mosquito Coast was claimed by the United Kingdom and its predecessors as a protectorate from 1655 to 1850; this was delegated to Honduras in 1859 and transferred to Nicaragua in 1860, though it remained autonomous until 1894.

In 1961 Carlos Fonseca and two others founded the Sandinista National Liberation Front (FSLN). Upon assuming office in 1981, U.S. President Ronald Reagan condemned the FSLN for joining with Cuba in supporting Marxist revolutionary movements in other Latin American countries such as El Salvador.

Daniel Ortega is the current (83rd) President of Nicaragua, but he previously served as the 79th President, between 10 January 1985 and 25 April 1990. For much of his life, he has been a leader in the FSLN.
