SMartCamp We Love :: Video + The Web @SMartCAMP
Recently Friends We Love was asked to join in on an panel discussion about our thoughts on video + the web. The discussion was part of an AMAZING weekend of stimulating ideas, start-ups and new technologies called SMartCamp. The good folks at the Roger Smith Hotel, where the conference was held, archived the entire weekend of panel talks, keynotes and presentations. Do yourself a favor and watch some of the videos- Tons of great insight for all makers of art and users of social media.
Videos We Love :: JESS3 | The State of The Internet
If you’re more of a visual person who needs to “see it” in order to “process it” – Then this is the video for you. This super clean + beautifully designed video takes the viewer on a visual ride through today’s the state of the internet. On behalf of all visually inclined people i’d like to thank JESS3 for creating such an interesting take on where we stand in terms of the online state of now. If you get a chance check out the JESS3.com site- Tons of great work!
Events We Love :: Rebirth of the Speakeasy
My good friend Rhina asked me to help her raise money for a green initiative in Harlem and of course asI love all things green, I agreed. Following is the press release for the event. Make sure to RSVP toinfo@mv2nyc.com if you’d like to come through…
On Saturday March 6th we are hosting an event that gathers a fun group of people in a private location for the Launch of the Rebirth of the Speakeasy: “The Underground.” There is a place in this city where entertainment is open, intellectual minds gather, artist and carefree people unite and party wild in abandonment (not in a club setting). Lovely Moni will be the DJ for this occasion. Moni rocks a party with seamless mixes of timeless soul, percussive anthems and future classics.
Street Art We Love :: Banksy vs Robbo
When we saw these photos & read the article in the Wall Street Journal (out of all places) we couldn’t help but wonder what’s really behind all this. We came up with a few scenarios and the one that we’d like to believe is as follows. Given Banksy superstar status, why would he so blatantly write over a Robbo tag that’s a reigning piece from an era? Is this Banksy’s way of pulling a legend out of a 16yr retirement? Is this a way for Banksy to shed light on a writer who was the first London “all-city” bomber but who has never sold a “piece” in his career? We’re giving Banksy the benefit of the doubt because it wouldn’t make much sense otherwise. The article has a great slideshow featuring the photos below and deserves a closer look.
Films We Love :: The Birth of Big Air – The Mat Hoffman Story
taking the sport of BMX into completely new realms where many others simply didn’t see humanly possible. His career has spanned multiple decades and I couldn’t be happier to see a film finally being made about the man, the myth, the Hoffman!
