EK – Invincible (Single)
“Invincible” is the latest track from Boston rapper Daniel “EK” Ibeh and is the latest entry in his bi-weekly song series that is leading up to the release of his “Hands of Time” EP. The lyrics on here are very positive and inspiring, with EK slowing down his flow and kicking some motivational rhymes over a sort of spacey instrumental from Bueffard Mallary. Very dope. Peep it below.

Text by Faust. Cope2 and Indie links by 156 ALLSTARZ.The Big Egg Hunt presented by Fabergé was the world’s largest Easter egg hunt, featuring over 250 oversized eggs designed by an extraordinary roster of artists ranging from Jeff Koons to Zaha Hadid and Ralph Lauren to, well, me. Throughout the month of April these eggs were hidden all over the city in a veritable public art scavenger hunt. For a few remaining days, through April 25th, the entire collection can be seen on display at Rockefeller Center.Recognizing the great, once in a lifetime opportunity to create a Fabergé egg, I encrusted mine in ornamental calligraphy composed of 5000 Swarovski crystals. All of the eggs are being auctioned off online with proceeds benefitting the Studio in a…

In Drones We Trust, 2014 – Joseph DeLappeCrowd Sourced, Participatory Rubber Stamp Currency InterventionFOR FULL PROJECT DOCUMENTATION VISIT: http://indroneswetrust.tumblr.com/A participatory project inviting volunteers across the United States to rubber stamp a tiny image of an MQ1 Predator Drone on the back of their money. The idea came after closely examining U.S. currency – all but the $1 dollar bill feature a pastoral depiction of a notable government building or monument on the back of the bills, albiet with lonely, empty skies. It seems appropriate, considering our current use of drones in foreign skies, to symbolically bring them home to fly over our most notable patriotic structures. I’ve created 100 of these laser etched and …
