VICE Magazine teamed up with eight illustrators to pay tribute to Prohibition-era art with modern takes on those propaganda posters (both pro- and anti-booze) that were slung up on both sides of the Mason-Dixon line. The poster above is by Washington, DC-based artist Vikki Chu .

Adam Yauch , mais conhecido como MCA dos Beastie Boys , garantiu que seu legado não seja veiculado a propagandas após sua morte. O rapper, que faleceu devido a um câncer em uma glândula salivar em maio deste ano, determinou em seu testamento que sua imagem, música e arte não poderão ser usados para publicidade, assim como já aconteceu com vários outros artistas. O documento foi lido na terça-feira (07), em Manhattam, e sua fortuna de 6,4 milhões de dólares foi deixada para sua esposa, que também ficou com o controle de venda e administração [...]
by Joe DeMartino Collection: US WWII Cartoons What's on Network Awesome today? Beyond a few broad, core truths (the Nazis are Evil, the Axis are a Threat), propaganda is by its very nature filled with falsehoods, exaggerations, and lies. It reveals far more about the country that created it than its actual target. In the following cartoons, which cast the most popular animated characters of the time into situations both [...]

Today, there are more mp3s in circulation than all other recording formats combined. This alone would be cause to write a book about them, but I became fascinated with mp3s because of how they are made. An mp3 encoder uses a mathematical model of the gaps and absences in human hearing to remove some of the data in an audio file, in order to make it smaller. If the encoder “thinks” you won’t hear part of a sound recording, it yanks it out on the encoding end, so that the resulting mp3 file is smaller, and therefore easier to transmit [...]
Kim Jong Un has a girlfriend! Or maybe a wife! Or maybe a girlfriend who is somebody else’s wife! No one at Thunk Tank Central (or anywhere else) is really sure. But last weekend he was seen in public with a young woman. Who was she? Korea Joongang Daily says that South Korean intelligence has identified her as Hyon Song-wol, former lead singer for the Bochonbo Electronic Music Band. Hot gossip: KJU might have had an affair with her when he returned home from his Swiss [...]

Day 22 - Your favourite song from the 80's These two songs are probably my two favourite songs of the 80s - if not of all time - but you knew that already, so why repost them again? Instead I'll plump for another song which (probably) also features in my all time top ten, and which is quintessentially 80s, and you can't necessarily say the same for the aforementioned classics by The Smiths and The Jam. Possibly the last great new pop single of the [...]

I had the pleasure of speaking with Jayne County on my program on Thursday; she hit the stage at Bowery Electric on Thursday for the Max's Kansas City Alumni Reunion shows (which goes on through Sunday). Check the archive for the interview. I heard that Jayne might be at La Mama before her much anticipated Max's reunion performance, so it was off to the Ellen Stewart Theatre first! The La Mama show was- Jukebox Jackie: Snatches of Jackie Curtis -an exhilarating collage performance containing elements of the Warhol star's life; [...]

The Red Star (1908) is a Russian science-fiction novel describing the coming into being of a perfect Communist society on Mars, where the principle of egalitarianism is pushed to the point where even blood is a common good and must be constantly re-distributed and shared in equal [...]

A strange coincidence when you are writing about someone, up against a deadline, and they die. No time to go back and make it a memorial, no point in going forward with what would now be an obsolete piece. A stranger coincidence in that the now never-completed post was to be about a never-completed project of Jean "Moebius" Giraud , the legendarily failed film collaboration with Alejandro Jodorowsky : Dune . What follows is a free-imagining of a re-imaginging of the negated future of that impossible past: For those unaware, in 1975, Jodorowsky, with [...]
When was the last time you looked at a penny? I did when I noticed they’d suddenly begun looking like arcade tokens. which apparently started two whole years ago. But I didn’t even notice when they just went random with Scenes from the Life o’ Lincoln, which I guess was in 2009, although I’ve never even seen one of those. Where are all these weird pennies that are supposedly in circulation? Are people snapping up all the pennies and putting them in bottles on the dresser? It’s not like they’re melting them [...]

One of the first signings to Trevor Horn's ZTT Records , German synth-pop group Propaganda were responsible for one of the great 'lost' albums from that period - A Secret Wish . p:Machinery was the second single released from the album and reached the heady heights of number 5 in Italy! Propaganda - p:Machinery (Present Mix)
Nina Kraviz, the beautiful Siberian, would be the perfect woman: a talented DJ ( resident of the legendary Propaganda in Moscow), sexy producer with a vampiristic beauty . Her popularity during the last two years made her one of my favorite woman producers. It is a simple but infectious sound inspired by deep house and techno, which made her famous. Far from taking the easy way, I have seen her during [...]
Orbital aficionados are probably already well aware that the trailblazing British duo's first new album in eight years, Wonky , is set to arrive on April 1, but for those who can't hold out that long, here comes the New France EP. This four-track release is sort of a postcard from the near future — its title track hails from Wonky and finds Orbital collaborating with L.A.-based vocalist Zola Jesus , and the rest of the EP is occupied by remixes that take the tune into intriguing areas. "New France" makes [...]

It’s probably safe to assume that if you’ve found this article, you’re internet-savvy enough to have already been exposed to the Kony 2012 campaign. With well over 2 million views on YouTube and 5.2 million views on Vimeo, as well as countless shares around Twitter and Facebook, the campaign has certainly proven true its own claim about the power of social media in changing the world. And why shouldn’t it be successful? Millions of people around the world coming together to stop the crimes of an evil man and make the world a better place – that sounds [...]
