Are You Talkin' to Me...?

Breaking it down to the basics, Illustrator José Cruz  creates beautiful geometric inspired illustrations. In these caricatures of Robert DeNiro  José masterfully simplifies the art to capture each role.  Enter the X-factor to see more of his work. 

Raising the Bar...

Turning the mundane UPC lines into something fun, these barcodes from Japan are both functional and stylish. 

Retro Record Sleeves...

I found these 45 sleeves years ago outside of an old record store in NYC. Being long forgotten vinyl (and labels) they had been tossed to the curb.  I grabbed what I could, but left most of the warped vinyl behind. Flickr set.

Take a look at this collection of 45 adapters.

The Heart of Vegas...

I've always liked Coppola's One From the Heart and I finally found a decent quality clip of this memorable scene that features Natassja Kinski  dancing in a neon wasteland outside of Vegas.

Check out some authentic vintage Vegas signage here.
