BRKYRD Creative Foundry

Talent. A word that shouldn’t be used lightly in todays world. But in the next case its hard to use just that word when describing Sean Farris aka BRKYRD. Recently launched, this creative firm has been pumping out quality product for months now and each one is more impressive then the last. Its pretty amazing to see such talented typography being contracted by some big names, let alone it being transferred on to signs afterwards. Take a look around the site, enjoy the art. And if you have a company you really should take a moment and hit them up. Check out the amazing piece he did below for me.

Vintage Frames Company x Ultra Goliath 2

Chris Is A Liar — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 05:00:14 +0000

If you can keep focused on the sunglasses below, they’re a collaboration between the Vintage Frames Company and Ultra Eyewear to resurrect their 1977 classic Ultra Goliath 2 frames. I could tell you that the “Snow White Project” Ultra Goliath 2 were produced with the original Goliath 2 mold in Holland (in the same factory nonetheless), and that only 50 highly limited edition frames will be made, but is there really any point? Hat tipped to the art director for putting together this brilliant campaign featuring a modern day Snow White in my home town of Montreal… if Snow White were a tattooed, redhead model (stripper) who liked hanging out in the woods completely naked. Only problem is, is anyone actually looking at the sunglasses? The Vintage Frames Company x Ultra Goliath 2 Snow White Sunglasses will only available at Vintage Frames Shop for $500, and come with either tinted or clear lenses. I wanna know how much for the girl?

Underwater Dogs

These images from photographer Seth Casteel capture dogs diving underwater to catch, swim and frolic – turning man’s best friend into both menacing fiends and ridiculous clowns. Hahah, here is a link to a shit ton more.

Skrillex – “Bangarang”

Chris Is A Liar — Mon, 20 Feb 2012 05:00:46 +0000

Fresh off winning 3 Grammys this past Sunday — including the ever coveted Best New Artist — brostep wunderkind Skrillex drops his latest video in celebration. The theme? As you do in childhood, so shall you be as an adult. Even if in youth you were a well coordinated ice cream heist crew…

Chris Is A Liar — Mon, 20 Feb 2012 05:00:38 +0000

Whoop whoop!! Well I guess I should just wish you all a Happy belated Juggalo Day! That’s at least what Insane Clown Posse and Psychopathic Records are calling this past Friday, February 17, 2012. As part of the first-annual tradition, Psychopathic has announced that the Gathering of the Juggalos will go on again, at the same location, Cave-In-Rock, Illinois. And not only will it go on again, ICP has added an extra day. This year, the Gathering of the Juggalos will be five days. This could be very dangerous. Those days: August 8-12, 2012. The usual suspects: “As of right now you know the usual suspects will be present and accounted for. The Insane Clown Posse, Twiztid, Blaze Ya Dead Homie, ABK, Boondox, DJ Clay, Mike E. Clark, Cold 187 AKA Big Hutch! Plus tons of contests, events, seminars, JCW wrestling, late night parties, and MORE!!” Now I know your all like what the fuck who cares?! Well I do, and the reason being is a special project I will be doing this year at the Gathering. Shit is gonna get real!

Richards’ Trunk Desk

Chris Is A Liar — Sun, 19 Feb 2012 05:00:25 +0000

Based on an early 1900s steamer trunk which traveled the world, these remakes are built using the same techniques as the original: wood frames, hand-waxed canvas, and hand-hammered pins. So sick and only a couple grand. Check out more here.

It comes with a blackened chain with a mock croc covered brass lock. It’s yours for 145 USD from the Alexander Wang online store.

Society6

Chris Is A Liar — Fri, 17 Feb 2012 05:00:59 +0000

I have been struggling with how I was going to merge my photography as Chris Gualano into Truth Of A Liar now for a while. A lot of photo projects have been coming my way, and with that I thought I should display the final images somewhere. Without creating a new site, or an online portfolio I decided i would start a Society6 page, and kill 2 birds with 1 stone. Show off my work, and at the same time offer it to the public with an option to purchase as I have had a few requests. Although I have started off slow with 5 select images, the page will get updated frequently and more will be added. If you have a Society6 page follow me, and if not head over and check out the current prints up for sale with fashion giants Mishka, and Dr Martens. Support my work, buy a print!

Ghost Pepper Candy Balls

Chris Is A Liar — Thu, 16 Feb 2012 05:00:33 +0000

What’s the easiest way to trick someone into eating something that’s ridiculously hot? Disguise it as candy, of course! These Ghost Pepper Candy Balls do exactly that, packing a heat rating of over one million SHU into an only mildly-hot looking candy ball that you really shouldn’t try to pick up with your bare hands. So yeah, maybe that trick isn’t such a hot idea after all.

Skin: A Film by Ryan Hope

Chris Is A Liar — Thu, 16 Feb 2012 05:00:17 +0000

Directed by Ryan Hope, Skin is a dark, stylish examination of tattoo culture as high art and a film that tests the boundaries of the medium and the human body. The film features contributions from notable artists such as Damien Hirst, Jeff Koons and Raymond Pettibon, in association with Dasha Zhukova’s Garage Magazine. Today marks the first day in which the entire artistic endeavor can be viewed by the general public thanks to the generosity from Christie’s, the world’s leading art business, and W Hotels. Take a watch if you have the time, I wanted to like but much of the dialog appeared scripted and the art direction seemed contrived.
