Wills And Kate Airbrushed
13 Dec 2010 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
A royal insider inside St James’s Palace inside the room inside where Prince William and Kate were officially photographed revealed the pics were airbrushed before release. Apparently nothing hectic like thickening the Prince’s hair was done which is a real shame because this is what he would’ve looked like.

Artist Sails On The Thames In A Paper Boat
16 Nov 2010 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
The other day, while I was busying myself writing articles about men who use Gumtree to swap citizenship for sex, a German artist was doing something infinitely more radical.
As part of an a contemporary art exhibition in London called Drift, Frank Bölter created an enormous paper boat and sailed the Thames in it.

OK Go’s Toasty New Video
10 Nov 2010 by Jasmine Stone / 4 Comments
Just last week we reported how Myspace was repositioning itself as a “social entertainment platform”. As if to prove us right, they’ve only gone and exclusively previewed the brilliant new OK Go music video featuring 2,430 slices of toast in one of the most epic stop-motion animations I’ve seen in a long time.

Transformers 3 Has A Plot, Apparently
19 Oct 2010 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
Overeager merchandising at Amazon led to the spoiling of Transformer 3: The Dark of the Moon’s plot, which everybody is just devastated about. What’s that? You don’t watch it ‘for the story’? Oh. Well it’s in space, apparently…

Solid Gold – Banksy Does The Simpsons
11 Oct 2010 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
Famed and cultishly-revered British street artist, Banksy, has struck gold. He story-boarded and animated the intro for this Simpsons episode, and it is appropriately entertaining. What a lot of people don’t know, though, is that he used the 2oceansvibe HQ as a real-world inspiration for some of the intro scenes. Guess which ones. [VIDEO]

STRIKING – A LESSON IN DANCING
09 Sep 2010 by Jasmine Stone / No Comments
The recent four week-long public servant strike taught us two things. Firstly, government is tight with its money, and not in the “tight-thrifty” way. Secondly, and more importantly, we’re a nation of dancers. Truly, you can say what you like about who has the moral high ground in this dog show, but you absolutely cannot […]

HIPSTER DINOSAURS: PICTURES OF HOW WE ALL FEEL
31 Aug 2010 by Jasmine Stone / 3 Comments
Some of you studied at UCT. Some of you may have even been forced to make forays to UCT’s Hiddingh Campus, AKA Hipster-Central. I remember those brief, but terrifying outings. The Hipsters. They’re so, so much cleverer than us. They talk about Nietzsche and Kant, and judge me when I reply by telling them not […]

THE WORLD’S LARGEST DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPH
05 Aug 2010 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
Many moons ago I featured an article about the highest definition photograph ever taken of Cape Town. The resolution was so high that you could zoom in kilometers from where the pic was taken, and check out some angels suntanning on a rooftop deck. No spice – check it out here.

28 Jun 2010 by Seth Rotherham / 1 Comment
There are a lot of iPhone apps out there and, as much as I would like to focus on all of them, my attention has been fully diverted to the new kid on the my block, the iPad. By the way, did I tell you that I subscribed to 12 issues of Wallpaper magazine for […]

SKETCHBOOKTRAILS – A JOURNEY IN FINE ART
18 Jun 2010 by Seth Rotherham / 1 Comment
“Taf” from Sketchbooktrails contacted me about doing an oil painting of yours truly. I had never had an “oil” done of me and was more than flattered by the gesture – especially since she said she was also doing one of Goldfish (The Blonde and Baby Jesus) “Sure thing,” I told her. “Do I have […]

THE AFRIKA IS ON FIRE
29 Apr 2010 by Jasmine Stone / 1 Comment
Our more trippy readers might know that the Afrika Burns festival, South Africa’s newest excuse to get totally baked in the desert, wrapped up on Tuesday after five brightly-coloured days of parallel universes, flying dragons and fire. And lets not forget the odd bout of “let’s chain the 11 year olds to the front of […]

MASTERPIECES IN 3D
16 Apr 2010 by Seth Rotherham / 6 Comments
I don’t want to even begin to get my head around how they do this (it seems involves digital “equipment”), but all I can say is that it is nothing short of awesome. This video is being used to market the new 3D Samsung Television sets (do we still call them TV “sets?”). You’ll like […]

TWO DAYS LEFT TO EASILY WIN A R15,000 LEICA CAMERA
15 Jan 2010 by Seth Rotherham / 1 Comment
It’s a bit of a joke really – the LEICA D-Lux 4 camera. The very same camera that you will own if your photograph wins the L’Ormarins Moment photographic competition. If I may.. The LEICA D-Lux 4 Shame, it’ll be awkward for your friends when you’ve got the best camera. But that’s just the way […]

I was invited to an exhibition in Johannesburg which I’m unable to attend as I’ll be out of the country (I’ll tell you about that at a later stage – think Los Angeles). The background and story about the exhibition was so impressive that I was compelled to tell you about it – especially our […]

JACK BAUER HEADBUTTS FASHION DESIGNER
07 May 2009 by Seth Rotherham / 6 Comments
A little bit awkward this whole vibe. It took place at at an after-party in New York for the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute Gala. Kiefer Sutherland was there and so was Brooke “Blue Lagoon” Shields. Then apparently this fashion designer guy, Jack McCollough, knocked Shields over. Whether it was on purpose or not […]
