OMA plans to rebuild a Filip-Dujardanesque Bijlmermeer (Amsterdam’s 80’s)  in Singapore.

Here is one of the key-statements by Ole Scheeren: “The design addresses concerns of shared space and social needs in a contemporary society and simultaneously responds to issues of shared living and individuality by offering a multiplicity of indoor/outdoor spaces specific to the tropical context.”

Ikea Heights is a web soap directed by David Seger on Channel 101 that’s secretly filmed inside of a Burbank IKEA. It’s not as a cute as those scenes from 500 Days of Summer where Zooey Deschanel and Joseph Gordon Levitt play house, but some of the dialogue is rather inspired and there’s a big plot twist at the end of the pilot. Plus: How impressive that they managed to shoot inside the store without getting caught/kicked out!

what reminds me rather of graphic art (and this thing would be a cool wallpaper!) is a satellite view of farming in Texas, veggy farming in the circles and oil farming along the citcuit-board style paths.

In 1913, Marcel Duchamp labeled everyday objects as art. Those “readymades” are now in museums. Now, artist Ji Lee has taken a classic Duchamp readymade and put it back into the everyday context of the street. Duchamp Reloaded
