The New Deal
Went to The New Deal show at the Elixir last night, it was pretty solid. From a distance, it was akin to watching an iPod ad, with a silouetted crowd and musicians against solid neon colours. Throw in some flashing lights and some beer and you’ve got yourself a bumpin concert. The sound and intensity is pretty impressive for a drummer, bass and keyboards. Check them out if their in your neighbourhood.

An octopus that disguises itself as a seacoconut

New Conform Project image
I wanted a new desktop background, so I remixed an image from the Conform Project and ended up with this bright yellow shocker. There also hadn’t been much activity in the flickr group lately, so this kills two birds with one stone.
Renegade museum art
Banksy installed his own pieces in four famous New York Galleries
One remained up for a few hours, another for a few days, the other two are still hanging.

Not the easiest hack, but it’d be fun to whip out a giant brick of a phone somewhere and make a call.
