"I Wish They Made This For Girls"

Some photos from On & Beyond's photos series "I Wish They Made This For Girls". I find myself saying this every single day.

Rooney Mara in Vogue (November '11)

Looking forward to seeing Rooney Mara play Lisbeth Salandar in December.

TOMBOY

Gah, really want to see this. The whole Tomboy thing I can totally relate to. Dont think I ever went as far as telling people I was a boy, but I definitely felt like one, like in gradeschool when I played football at recess. Or during summers when I ran around without a shirt on. Or during my 4th grade Health class when I threw a fit when I was forced to map out the anatomy of my gender -- a girl.

Ya weird. I like.

Fall in Williamstown

I was so restless when I went to Williams College. All I wanted was out of the small New England preppy scene, probably because it seemed like high school all over again. But I now miss this so much. I miss being in a community full of the brightest and motivated people I've ever been around. There weren't many responsibilities. (Well, besides the inordinate amounts of homework, and endless hours of sports training.) But if you worked hard, you were rewarded. Everyday I was challenged, I busted my ass, and I got something out of it. You didn't have to schmooze, or know the right people in order to climb up some silly political ladder. There weren't dues you had to pay, and there wasn't b*tch work to be done. Instead, we learned and grew in what (I didn't realize until now) was an incredibly supportive and rare environment. Williams is a special place, and I can now say that I miss it.

The Feynman Series (part 1)

Think different.

Here's to the Crazy Ones.

Sophnet x Tricker's: YES.

Sophnet teamed up with Tricker's to create these radass ostrich leather wingtip boots (for Sophnet's opening in a corner of upcoming Hankyu Men's Tokyo department store).

Well said, Liz Feldman.

Nike winter gear

Eeeesh, winter's a comin, which means it's getting to that time of year when I'm running around/running into things in the dark. I should probably get all the below so at least I wont have to worry about someone running into me. Really digging on Nike's Holiday '11 "Dark" collection and Shield pack.

F*ck cancer, RIP Steve Jobs.

Johan Rijpma: "Tape Generations"

Hypnotically cool video made by Dutch artist Johan Rijpma. Cary, I think you'd enjoy this. Maybe not the wastefulness of tape, but more the oddity & beauty that can come from such mundane things. And you gotta respect that attention to detail!

Cassius - I Love U So

Fun video for Cassius' "I Love You So", featuring the FIRST EVER interactive music video iPhone app. Came out last year, and shows a hodgepodge of fan-submitted clips (fans could download the app & then send in their footage).

Ron Mallezan

I'm drawn to illustrator Ron Mazellan's work in large part because I love portraiture, but also because I like his subjects and his expressive line quality. A lot of Mazellan's work features athletes, and obviously sports is a world that I know and care about. But whether or not he's depicting athletes, I like how his subjects are always treated with emotion and energy, often creating a sense of nostalgia.

I Break Horses: Winter Beats

Such a pretty song. Listening to it on repeat these days.

A Journey Through Vietnam (by Leon Visser)

Dutch videographer Leon Visser gives us a look at his travels through Vietnam. Nicely filmed. Reminds me of my adventures with my friends through Asia -- chopsticks, moped traffic, overnight bus rides, hostel hangouts, bustling street markets, cheesy karaoke nights, incredible experiences. Makes me want to travel again.

Theophilus London: "I Stand Alone"

Not at all impressed with the video, but still digging on this song.

Nike: Back To The Future

It's BAAAAACKK!!! Remember Michael J Fox's futuristic kicks in Back To The Future II? Well Nike's cookoo genius sneaker elves have finally unveiled the 2011 Nike MAG, which is basically the replica of MJ Fox's mythical kicks (minus levitating & self-tying capabilities). 1,500 pairs will be auctioned off on eBay, net proceeds going to The Michael J. Fox Foundation, supporting the fight against Parkinson's disease. I aint no sneakerhead, but I'm geekin out!
