This video by Cypress hill x Rusko is one of the most visually compelling videos i have seen since Gnarles Barley’s ‘Crazy.’  I haven’t really heard Cypress Hill since I was a kid and they were popular, but I have to say they did a good job blending their rap style with Rusko’s grimey sound that I love.</p>http://xtramediumdesign.tumblr.com/post/18511078931http://xtramediumdesign.tumblr.com/post/18511078931Wed, 29 Feb 2012 13:41:57 -0800ruskodubstepcypress hill3musicvideodesignaesthetics<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m03cbiqMlr1qduom2o4_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m03cbiqMlr1qduom2o1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m03cbiqMlr1qduom2o3_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m03cbiqMlr1qduom2o2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://pulmonaire.tumblr.com/post/18454178322/map-works-by-matthew-cusick" target="_blank">pulmonaire</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>Map works by <a href="http://mattcusick.com/" target="_blank">Matthew Cusick</a></p> </blockquote>http://xtramediumdesign.tumblr.com/post/18503131337http://xtramediumdesign.tumblr.com/post/18503131337Wed, 29 Feb 2012 11:04:08 -0800<iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/30209136?portrait=0" width="400" height="295" frameborder="0"></iframe><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://velotone.tumblr.com/post/13685448151/a-short-document-about-shepard-faireys-murals-in" target="_blank">velotone</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>a short document about <span>Shepard Fairey’s murals in Asbury Park, New Jersey.

At 10k feet it is amazing the perfect geometric shapes you can see. Multiple perfect circles, grids, squares that all look like extraterrestrial artwork in a perfectly flat, tan canvas.
