2012 Light Festival In Ghent, Belgium
This year, the Light Festival in Ghent, Belgium, was showcase to the Luminaire De Cagna LED-light display which drew in over half a million people. The Italian family has been in the light display business since the 1930′s but have switched to LED lights in 2006. This project consisted of over 55,000 LED lights but used only 20 kWh of energy. Vegas, eat your heart out.
RZA Action Figure
The RZArectah gets his own action figure fresh off his stint in the “what, they made a sequel?” to G.I. Joe. In the film, Bob Digi plays the Blind Master, a member of the Arashikage Ninja Clan that Storm Shadow and Snake-Eyes belong to (pictured left and right, respectively).

And, my fave:
WTEV x Gastown Tattoo x Stevie G
On January 8th, street photographer Stephen Goodman made a special visit to Gastown Tattoo [105 W. Cordova St]. His outer forearm would be emblazoned with the word “Eastvan,” a dedication to the hood that continues to inspire him. Watch the brisk evening of ink, blood and animal skulls below.
Tattoo by Ashley Doherty of Gastown Tattoo Parlour.
Eastvan script design by Rob Geary of Welcome To Eastvan.
Music provided by Mike Decline. Look out for his upcoming release Calmmunicate coming this January 27th, 2012 on Phonographique.
HELLO by Lionel x Others…
You would have to have paid attention to a lot of movies before even beginning to set this up. Propers to ant1mat3rie.
