Congrats to Jeremy for being featured on Thrillist and Eater yesterday. If you haven’t already, I highly recommend signing up for Dinevore. I can honestly say that it’s changing the way I decide where to eat.

The Central Intelligence Agency, Art
CIA Original Headquarters Building
Langley, Virginia

Since the founding of the CIA in 1947, the Agency has participated in both covert and public cultural diplomacy efforts throughout the world. It is speculated that some of the CIA’s involvement in the arts was designed to counter Soviet Communism by helping to popularize what it considered pro-American thought and aesthetic sensibilities. Such involvement has raised historical questions about certain art forms or styles that may have elicited the interest of the Agency, including abstract expressionism.

BLDGBLOG: A permanent state of insurrection

“A guerrilla architecture project that aims to hijack the great arch of fraternity [the Arche de la Défense].”

Love the idea of parasite spaces.

On the train to West Hampton on Friday, sat behind legendary conceptual artist Lawrence Weiner. Tried to muster the courage to complement his work but couldn’t figure out what to say. Started to write him a note explaining how I saw him back at Penn Station standing in front of a text-only ad for Kraft Macaroni and Cheese that said “DENIAL IS FUTILE”. Tried to explain why it was funny to see him there, but decided that you kind of had to be there. Seriously, how do you complement the man who used language to transcend subjectivity in art? Still at a loss.

Will says:

I created this with Ithai last week as a kind of experiment combining typeface typical of magazines with video which has been shot and edited to feel like a still photograph…Tablets (and the internet really) provide the opportunity to look at moving images with the same studied intensity as a still photograph. Traditionally we are at the director’s mercy regarding when a shot begins and ends- the whole experience is fleeting, which can be wonderful, but I like the idea of creating a moving image which runs on a loop or is shot over a long period of time so the media can be consumed and studied in ways a traditional film cannot.

Bobby Solomon says:

The visual nerd in me is drooling… Dear fancy magazine people, do yourself a favor and hire this guy, your cool factor will jump.

I say:

More than anyone else, William Hereford creates the world I want to live in. He is an artist, a visionary, and a gentleman. I’m proud to call him a friend and accomplice, and I can’t wait to see what he does next.

See more of his work here and here.

Great job, Will.

The Flipper Bridge, via Kottke:

In Hong Kong, cars drive on the left while in the rest of China, they drive on the right. If you’re building a bridge between the two, you’ve got to come up with a clever way to switch lanes without disruption or accident.
