DOS & DON'TS

The LSD-S&M-toilet-brush- from-Sesame-Street vibe is surprisingly big in East London these days. Comments/Enlarge | See all


Can you imagine what it feels like to go from the James Dean of Shanxi Province to the laughingstock of Dolores Park in the space of a single plane ride? It's like realizing the whole room knows you're stoned, only instead of six or seven people you thought were your friends, it's an entire culture. Comments/Enlarge | See all

PINUPS - PART 1

Fuck Eyes - Bulletin Boards Are Windows to the Soul



What’s better than going over to someone’s house and looking at their stuff? Nothing. People’s stuff rules. And stuff that people put up on their bulletin boards, or “inspiration areas” if you will, super-extra-rules. We picked four of our favorite artist types and stared at their bulletin boards going, “What’s that? What’s that? What’s that?” until they got totally annoyed.

“The Gonz” invented a little thing called “the skateboard.” He is also “quite a character.”


Prince is one of my favorite musicians. His full name is Prince Rogers Nelson. I also got ODB on here and Morrissey.

This is from somebody who lives and works for Adidas. It’s quite cool. It’s like a jackal. It’s an embryo of a jackal.

Ryan McGinley gave me a series of signed postcards and I mailed them out to family members. This is just the box cover it came in. It was Olympic swimmers that he took photographs of and, you know, me being an athlete… Street fighting is not considered athleticism, is it? I’m a street fighter. That’s my sport. I like fighting and the best way to train for physical combat is in the water. Swimming. That’s why I really love the muscle structure of a swimmer. If you ask me which type of person I would like to fight, I’m always gonna say a swimmer. Of course I would lose, because their muscles are perfect.

This isn’t a bulletin board. A bulletin board is what police officers use. They have a crime blotter of who they’re looking for. You know Michael Jackson? He had a video called “Bad” and Martin Scorsese is the director of the video. Now, in the video there’s a picture of Scorsese posted on the wall and he’s wanted by the police department. It says, “For police circulation only.” So that would mean that the underground is a police headquarters. And it’s pinned up on the walls of the subway so that the subway walls are, in fact, a bulletin board. And so graffiti is a bulletin board for the streets.
