A lonely desk toy longs for escape from the dark confines of the office, so he takes a cross country road trip to the Pacific Coast in the only way he can – using a toy car and Google Maps Street View. A superb stop motion animation made as a personal project by director Tom Jenkins.

An amazing curation of duo imageries, created by James Turnley, Two for the Road is:

an editing experiment based on the visual similarities that can be found when photos are presented side by side.

A great source of inspiration.

A nice music video with beautiful clips from the 1970’s Swedish movie En Kärlek historia.

Photojournalist, Wang Jiuliang, has been documenting the wastes around Beijing over the past years. As China emerges into the world’s new consumer power, it is also experiencing the growing pains that comes with this growth. The realities of modern living is that we are actually besieged by our own waste. How will this effect not only our future generations, but perhaps in our own times? Below, is also a Google Map which Wang has plotted out, a disturbing picture for the residents of Beijing.

The colours are just amazing. Indian/Australian photographer, Palani Mohan are extremely vivid and active.

I recently checked out the work of photojournalist Jocelyn Bain Hogg for his collection of photos that document a society obsessed with celebrity culture. While browsing Idols+Believers, I revisited a piece that left a stronger impression on me. This particular set entitled, The Firm, gives us a closer look into the world of organized crime in the UK. Bain Hogg spent four years alongside the men and women of the British underworld offering them a chance to be represented as honestly as possible. The foundation of their relationships – that loyalty must remain their foremost concern – becomes very apparent through the photographs. The whole book is in B&W as are the lives of the subjects depicted. The following photos are some of my favorites. Enjoy.

See the rest of the set here.

hannahelisabeth on Flickr has compiled her favorite black and white photographs from her collection. I have seen a couple all over the internet but never knew who took them. So, now we all know.

Cosmic Excerpts is a collection by Ryan Todd from Darklord. The collection is a result of many years of disco, funk, and cosmic record hunting. What makes this collection unique is the way Todd documents only a portion of the record sleeve in order to create a gestalt of new perspective for some of these bizarre designs. Todd had this to say, “I would buy a record and if it happened to have weird, sci-fi artwork then I photographed a portion of the cover for the set, avoiding any words or identifiers as best as possible. If the record turned out to be terrible, then at least I was able to take away a cool image from the experience before donating it to Goodwill. It also turned into a little bit of a game, with random people showing up to see if they could identify records based on the bit I chose to show.”
