John Hodgman and Obama.
Humor-monger John Hodgman, the most dynamic public speaker of our generation, attempts to validate the claim that Obama is the first nerd president of the modern era by conducting an extensive nerd “purity test” at the 2009 Radio and TV Correspondents’ Dinner.
Obama is such a BA when he throws up that Vulcan V!

slightly uncomforable and earth shattering.
Dina Goldstein's Fallen Princesses.
These works place Fairy Tale characters in modern day scenarios. In all of the images the Princess is placed in an environment that articulates her conflict. The ‘…happily ever after’ is replaced with a realistic outcome and addresses current issues.

The project was inspired by my observation of three-year-old girls, who were developing an interest in Disney’s Fairy tales. As a new mother I have been able to get a close up look at the phenomenon of young girls fascinated with Princesses and their desire to dress up like them. The Disney versions almost always have sad beginning, with an overbearing female villain, and the end is predictably a happy one. The Prince usually saves the day and makes the victimized young beauty into a Princess.

Set Up.
I found those amazing speakers in our garage and convinced my pops that it was time for him to part with one of his record players // sound system. We had to fix a couple things, but i am now in serious business. I've been raiding his record collection and have found several true GEMS. Lately I've been spinning a lot of Prince, Elton John, Sugarhill Gang, Simon & Garfunkel, Neil Young, The Police, and massive amounts of really good Dub from South Africa, such as EEK-A-MOUSE and Papa Michigan.
I hope everyone is having a lovely summer :D :D
