MICHAEL JACKSON LIVE AT WHARTSCAPE

ELENA WHO COLLABORATED ON THIS T-SHIRT WITH DINA IS NICE ENOUGH TO SEND THIS TO ME IN THE MAIL. BIG YES.

TINGLE FINGERS

I'VE BEEN FOLLOWING THEIR DESIGN WORK SINCE I FIRST CAUGHT SIGHT OF THEIR POSTER WHILE SELLING "SPECIAL" BROWNIES" AT THE FIRST NY EYE & EAR. IF YOU NEED SOME PRINTING/DESIGN WORK GO TO THEM BECAUSE FROM WHAT I CAN TELL THEY'RE PRETTY TALENTED COOL DUDES.

Tingle Fingers is a design and screenprinting operation based in South Brooklyn, established 2008.
We make showposters, t-shirts, book and album art, and occasionally web stuff. Most of the designs you see on this site are hand-printed, with the exception of web art. We print entirely in-house, in the bedrooms and bathrooms of our apartment. Our primary method is screenprinting but we often incorporate vinyl sticker and hand painted elements in our work.
We tingle because we love it when people make art with their friends, so if you do that, drop us a line sometime and maybe we can make something beautiful together.

XOXO TINGLE FINGERS

SHOPLIFTING FROM AMERICAN APPAREL

I REALLY WANT TO MEET THIS GUY AND FEED HIM LONGANISA OR PANCIT THEN SHOW HIM ALL MY FAT MOM DRAWINGS IN AMERICAN APPAREL OUTFITS, AND IF HE TURNS OUT TO BE A DICK, THAT'S ALRIGHT. GOTTA SEPARATE THE POET FROM THE POEM.

“ My target demographics include hipsters, depressed teenagers, depressed vegans, happy but sensitive teenagers, people of any age who are severely detached from reality, Europeans, all college students, and I think sarcastic vegans.

TAKE ME BACK TO THE BEACH.

THESE ARE FOR THE KIDS.

SAD T.V. MAN

BEING ON YOUR PERIOD SUCKS, BEING STUCK BEHIND A COMPUTER SCREEN WATCHING A SUPER 8 FILM OF A TRAIN RIDE THROUGH THE CITY SUCKS TOO. ONE OF THOSE DAYS I JUST WANT THE WIND IN MY FACE. THIS IS MY FRIEND DREW WHO APPARENTLY IS GOING ON TOUR AS DREW AND THE MEDICINAL PEN. GOOD LUCKS!

EVERYBODY IS STUPID EXCEPT FOR ME, PETER BAGGE IS THE MAN.

I WANT THIS BOOK MORE THAN THE CHOCOLATE CHIP WALNUT COOKIES IN THE OVEN. IF YOU HAVEN'T READ ANYTHING BY PETER BAGGE GO EAT A DICK BECAUSE THAT'S JUST GAY. HERE ARE FUNNY WORDS FROM A HATER...
First of all, sorry to bury the lead, I'm getting to the point. Second of all, Iggy Pop wouldn't suffer shit like this from smug, vodka-swilling liberal arts majors at a bar. Third of all, is it all right if I draw from this isolated incident with a moron, that all libertarians are idiots?
If Everyone is Stupid is any indication, that's totally fine. This bloated collection of Peter Bagge's work is just a series of similar encounters, through the lens of libertarianism. The book would have you believe that the world is comprised of bleeding-heart pinko Democrats who want to tax you to death and take away your assault rifles, and the GOP's flock of sexually-repressed bible-thumping rednecks.—Ashley Cardiff, CC2K


SUNDAY MORNING WITH AIRWAVES

SATURDAY WE TOOK A TRIP UP W/ FRIENDS TO A BEACH IN RHODE ISLAND WHERE I BRAVED A RED BIKINI, ATE A $20 LOBSTER ROLL, THEN GOT ATTACKED BY MOSQUITOS, AND GOT STRANDED ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY AFTER OUR FRIENDS CAR BROKE DOWN, UNTIL HER UNCLE PICKED US UP AND DROVE US TO NEW HAVEN. BUT HERE I AM SUNDAY MORNING, FORGETTING THAT I'M WASHING DISHES COMPLETELY TOPLESS, THAT I'M COVERED IN BITES, AND THAT GETTING HOME LAST NIGHT WAS SUCH A PAIN IN THE ASS BECAUSE I'M TOTALLY BLISSED OUT ON AIRWAVES'LP, MOSTLY COMPILED OF SONGS I'VE ALREADY HEARD BUT DON'T MIND PUTTING ON REPEAT.

JUST ADD SOME BEEF OR OTHER DEAD ANIMAL PLEASE

I LIKE MEAT, SOME PEOPLE DON'T AND I'M SORRY BUT I WON'T APOLOGIZE FOR IT. I DON'T EAT A LOT OF IT AND SOMETIMES I GET GROSSED OUT AT THE THOUGHT OF BITING INTO SOMEONES LEG BUT THEN IT PASSES. THIS RECIPE BOOK IS FUN TO FLIP THROUGH UNTIL YOU REALIZE YOU NEED TO SHIFT THROUGH EACH PAGE TO GET TO THE BEGINNING OR END AND THE FACT THAT IT'S STRICTLY MEATLESS BUT YOU COULD ALWAYS ADD IT YOURSELF. STILL REALLY COOL THOUGH. RECIPE BOOK

EFFFFF ME IN THE BUM

LIKE HOLY SHIT THIS BAND JUST NEEDS TO STAY DRUNK AND SAY FUCK OFF TO ALL OF US AND SNEAK INTO OUR HOUSES TO SPOON OUR DOGS AND KEEP PLAYING TILL WE ALL CREAM OUR PANTS. IF YOU WANT YOUR EARS FUCKED IN A GOOD WAY GO CHECK THEM OUT AT DANGER DANGER ON AUGUST 15.



THE INK PANTHERS SHOW: DORKS BEHIND A MIC

IF YOU LIKE WATCHING REALLY FIT MUSCULAR MEN DO STRETCHES IN THE PARK OR JOCKEY DUDES THROW A FOOTBALL OR THE FINER THINGS IN LIFE LIKE A TOFU SCRAMBLE YOU PROBABLY WON'T ENJOY THIS. BUT IF COMICS, AND STOMACH PUDGE, AND BEARDS, AND GLASSES, AND SUPER NERDY VOICES ARE YOUR THING AND YOU WANT SOME OVER STIMULATION HEAD OVER TO THE INK PANTHERS SHOW! YOU COULD GO SEE MIKE DAWSON'S WORK IN THE FLESH ALONG WITH RYAN DUNLEVY AND SARAH GLIDDEN AT ROCKETSHIP JULY 31ST.

A SHIT LOAD OF TINY WORK AT GIANT ROBOT. TOO MANY TO LIST, SO MUCH TO INGEST

I TEND TO FAVOR GROUP SHOWS OVER SOLOS UNLESS IT'S A HUGE RETROSPECTIVE BECAUSE I GET MORE BANG FOR MY TIME KNOWING THERE WILL BE SOMETHING THERE THAT WILL LEAVE ME SATISFIED, DOWNSIDE IS THE ALCOHOL RUNS OUT FASTER. GIANT ROBOT N.Y. HAS A SHOW WITH A BUTT LOAD OF ARTISTS WHO WERE INSTRUCTED TO FILL UP A DIME BAG WITH WHATEVER THEY WANTED. GO AT YOUR OWN RISK THOUGH BECAUSE APPARENTLY 9TH STREET, WHERE THEY ARE LOCATED, IS THE STOMPING GROUND FOR EARLY ADOPTORS AND IN THE KNOW CORRESPONDENTS OF COOL ACCORDING TO SOME LUXURY MAG. AND I'M LIKE SCHOOL IN THE SUMMER.
(ZACHARYZEZIMA)

THE MIGHTY BOOSH

SO MEMBERS OF THE CULT TV SERIES THE MIGHTY BOOSH ARE IN TOWN AND IMPOSE'S DEREK EVERS IS GOING TO INTERVIEW THEM TODAY I BELIEVE. I'M PERSONALLY NOT THE BIGGEST FAN OF THIS SHOW BUT THAT'S NOT REALLY FAIR I GUESS SINCE I'VE ONLY SEEN A HANDFUL OF THEM. I DO KNOW THAT EVERYONE LOVES OLD GREGG. LEAVE IT TO THE BRITISH TO FLASH A MANGINA, THAT DOWNSTAIRS MIX UP... NOW WHO WANTS BAILEYS FROM A SHOE?

STRAND ME ON DESERT ISLAND.

THERE ARE VERY FEW SITES THAT MAKE ME WANT TO GIVE CONTINUAL HIGH FIVES, AND YES'S, AND HOLY SHITS, AND BEAR HUGS, AND TITTIE TWISTERS, AND BUTT SLAPS, BUT EVERYTIME I VISIT DESERT ISLAND IT MAKES ME WANT TO DO ALL THIS AND EAT A POT BROWNIE AT THE SAME TIME. THIS THURSDAY FROM 7-9PM THEY HOST A DISCUSSION ON FLETCHER HANKS' WORK, AND UPCOMING INCLUDES APPEARANCES BY M.THURBER, J.PORCELLINO, M.BELL, AND DASH SHAW! ALSO A ROCK SHOW?.. MAYBE THEY NEEDS TO COLLAB WITH IMPOSE! YES.
DESERT ISLAND WEBSITE AWESOMENESS

BAD GRAPHIC DESIGN CURATED BY HKJB AT GOWANUS STUDIO SPACE

TO BE HONEST I PROBABLY WON'T MAKE IT TO THIS SHOW CONSIDERING IT CLOSES ON FRIDAY, NEVER MIND THE FACT THAT IT WILL HAVE BEEN UP FOR JUST 8 DAYS AND IT'S BY APPOINTMENT ONLY AT THIS POINT. BUT THE BEAUTY IS IN THE TEMPORARY, RUSHED, AND CONTINUALLY EVOLVING BODIES OF WORK THAT WILL FILL THIS NEW ART SPACE STARTED BY TWO DUDES WHO WANTED A COLLECTIVE TO CALL HOME. WISH I HAD MORE TIME TO GO THROUGH ALL ARTISTS THE BUT KUDOS TO JAY HENDERSON AND FRANK MAGNOTTA. I LIKES!

DIRTY PROJECTS, MAGNOLIA HUH?, CRYSTAL ANTLERS AT JELLY POOL PARTY

I BAKED UNDER THE SUN THIS PAST SUNDAY ON TOP OF A PICNIC TABLE NEARLY ESCAPING HEAT EXHAUSTION AND UGLY FARMERS TANS, SEE I DON'T BURN I JUST GET DARK. I DON'T KNOW IF IT WAS LOW EXPECTATIONS OR JUST GETTING BORED FROM SEEING DIRTY PROJECTORS IN THE PAST, BUT THIS TIME I WAS PLEASANTLY SURPRISED WHEN THEY ATTEMPTED TO GET ALL BJORK WITH THEIR VOCAL HARMONIES. JESUS CHRIST THEY WERE SO GOOD, ESPECIALLY WHEN THAT ONE CHICK DANCED AND MOVED LIKE A WHITE GIRL TRYING TO BE A DIVA. ANYWAYS, MAGNOLIA, THOUGH I'VE BOOKED THEM IN THE PAST AND REALLY LIKE JASON MOLINA, THEY WERE SO FUCKING BORING IT MADE A DUDE HIGH ON ACID COME DOWN, YEAH THAT'S HOW BORING. AND I LIKED CRYSTAL ANTLERS, THEY WERE FUN. EVERY TIME I SAW THE TOKEN BLACK DUDE IN THE BAND HE HAD ANOTHER ARTICLE OF CLOTHING OFF, TILL HE WAS STRIPPED TO HIS CHEST. THAT WAS COOL.
NO PHOTOS, FIND THEM CREAMING ON THE BLOGOSPHERE LATER ON IMPOSE.

INSTEAD I'M HERE PUTTING BEARDS ON GIRLS WITH METAL GRILLZ AND LISTENING TO AND FALLING IN LOVE WITH THE NEW TICKLEY FEATHER LP HORS D'OEUVERES OUT ON PAW TRACKS. SHE JUST MOVED BACK TO VIRGINIA, WHICH IS MY HOME STATE AS WELL. IT MAKES ME RE-THINK LIVING THERE AGAIN AND JUMPING FROM A ROPE SWING RIGHT INTO THE JAMES RIVER. BUT NO, GUESS THAT GETS OLD TOO.

A VERY SWEET EMAIL FROM RACHAL DUGGAN

ANYONE WHO EMAILS ME NICE THINGS AND IS KIND OF ENOUGH TO MAIL ME THEIR BOOK OF ILLUSTRATIONS OF DADS IS REALLY COOL IN MY BOOK. GO CHECK OUT HER ILLUSTRATIONS.

C.R.E.A.M. GALLERY HOSTED ALEX BARRY LIKE A WEEK AGO.

GALLERY IS IN GREENPOINT, WHOS OWNER IS A LOVER OF HIP HOP HENCE THE WU-TANG REFERENCE, AND IS ABOUT 5 BLOCKS FROM MY HOUSE WHICH IS AWESOME AND SADLY WILL BE CLOSING ITS DOORS THE END OF AUGUST, BUT MAYBE HOPEFULLY NOT.

GROCERY THIEF + TOURNAMENT + vIOLENT BULLSHIT + TITAN + STATS = AWESOME HANGOVER



AND WHAT'S UP VIVA RADIO?

OLD SPACE 1026 HEADS AT CINDERS GALLERY

I'M JUST GETTING AROUND TO POSTING ABOUT THIS SHOW THAT OPENED UP LIKE 15 DAYS AGO AND I'M TOO HUNGOVER AND FOR SOME REASON MY BOOBS ARE REALLY SORE TO PEN A PROPER POST SO I'LL JUST LET CINDERS GALLERY DO IT. With a joyful color palate, a side-splitting humorous side, and an endearing sincerity, these seemingly lackadaisical yet awesomely prolific artists perfectly represent the attitude and nonchalance of Space 1026's decade-plus history of serious art-making.

LIAM THE YOUNGER

SO, I'M NOT SURE IF ITS MY PERIOD THAT MAKES ME LOVE LIAM THE YOUNGER (THE BAND) OR IMAGINING THIS DRAWING BELOW AS LIAM THE YOUNGER AND HAVING HIM PEN ME SONGS AND MAKE BUTTERMILK PANCAKES IN THE MORNING. ALL I KNOW IS I WON'T EVEN BOTHER GOOGLE SEARCHING THIS BAND, I HAVE A FEELING HE WON'T BE ANYTHING LIKE THE WARM, FRIENDLY, BURLY MAN I HOPE HE IS.

HI FECAL FACE

A LITTLE BIRDIE TOLD ME WORK WAS UP ON FECAL FACE. IF ANY OF YOU CHECK IT PLEASE DON'T READ MY BIO, MY MOM WROTE IT AND IT'S VERY EMBARRASSING. AND, THANK YOU JULIAN.

THIS IS A POROUS WALKER AND IT MAKES ME WANT TO EAT HONEY AND TOUCH BOOBS.

DASH SNOW DEAD AT 27.

I NEVER REALLY DID GET THROUGH THAT 11 PAGE ARTICLE N.Y. MAG DID ON HIM HERE, ALL I KNOW IS I DEFINITELY WROTE HIM OFF (AT FIRST GLANCE) AS ANOTHER BORING TRUST FUND ARTIST BUT THE DEEPER I GOT INTO HIS WORK AND LIFE, AN ADMIRATION GREW, NO, NOT REALLY. SO SAD AS IT IS TO LOSE ANOTHER ARTIST TO A DRUG OVERDOSE, I'M NOT AT ALL SURPRISED, SEEMS ENTIRELY FITTING.

I WAS ASKED IF M.M. WAS MY PERIOD MUSIC

TO ANSWER THAT QUESTION NO! MODEST MOUSE IS NOT MY PERIOD MUSIC, THOUGH BUILDING NOTHING OUT OF SOMETHING SEEMS TO FIND ITS WAY TO MY SPEAKERS DURING THIS MONTHLY CLEANSE. RECENTLY THOUGH, A SLEW OF DREAMS INVOLVING DEATH HAVE BEEN CREEPING INTO MINE AND.. MY LOVER?'S (GAY) HEAD AT NIGHT AND IT'S BEEN PRETTY OFFSETTING CONSIDERING I WOKE UP SOBBING AND HE WAS REALLY GLAD IN THE MORNING THAT I WAS STILL ALIVE. I USUALLY AND FITTINGLY TURN TO WOWEE ZOWEE TO KEEP ME IN THAT I DON'T GIVE A FUCK THAT SHIT IS GOING WRONG INSIDE BUT I ACTUALLY REALLY DO CARE ABOUT EVERYTHING ELSE STATE OF MIND.

GREATEST WASTING TIME POST EVER : THE ETERNAL MOONWALK

THE ETERNAL MOONWALK

FRANZ NICOLAY ON THE SUBHUMANS

SERIOUSLY IF YOU'RE GOING TO DO ANYTHING TODAY OR NOT GOING TO DO ANYTHING TODAY YOU SHOULD REALLY DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND READ THIS OR JUST CONTINUE BEING A MORON.

SECRET LIFE OF AN ARTIST'S ASSISTANT

I REALLY LIKE THE IDEA OF THE NEW SHOW TITLED "OFF THE CLOCK" CURATED BY LIKE THE SPICE GALLERY IN WILLIAMSBURG FOCUSING ON THE PERSONAL WORK OF ASSISTANTS TO WELL KNOWN ARTISTS SUCH AS MARILYN MINTER, JEFF KOONS, KEHINDE WILEY, ETC, ETC. MORE INTERESTING TO ME ARE THE FUCKED UP FUNNY STORIES ABOUT WHAT REALLY GOES ON IN THOSE STUDIOS. HAVING WORKED IN ONE IN THE PAST I HAVE A CRAP LOAD OF THEM THAT LUCKILY I CAN LAUGH ABOUT NOW, LIKE HAVING TO PAINT WITH FULL ON GEAR, DOUBLE LAYERED GLOVES, IN THE DEAD OF WINTER INSIDE A FREEZING STUDIO WITH SMALL MINI HEATERS. FELT LIKEHOMELESS BUMS HAVING TO TAKE TURNS WARMING OUR HANDS AGAINST THEM. *SIGH, GOOD TIMES.
LIKE THE SPICE

MISSION OF BURMA AT EAST RIVER STATE PARK

I STROLLED INTO JELLY'S FIRST SUMMER POOL PARTY TO SEE MISSION OF BURMA AVOIDING THE SWEATY PITS AND BLISTERING SUN JUST IN TIME TO ENTER SPLIFF TOWN, SAY HI TO A COUPLE OF OLD AND NEW FRIENDS, AND LISTEN IN AWE TO MISSION... WHO TO ME ARE GODS AMONG MEN.
