Amanda White Exhibition: 'Circles & Animal Skins'

Toronto artist Amanda White has some new works entitled 'Circles & Animal Skins on show at 129 Gallery

In this new series of ink drawings, animal and plant textures and skins form circular piles. The images themselves are influenced stylistically by the tradition of botanical and zoological illustrations, but here the subjects are amorphous shapes.

RIP Andy Irons

[VIA]

We dont really cover much surfing on here, but 3 times World Champion Andy Irons was a surf legend.
He had contracted Dengue Fever and rumours are abound that this was a case of an accidental overdose on Methadone.
A very sad day in the surfing world.

Driverless Vans Reach China From Italy

Remember when Google's autonomous car did 1000 miles and everyone was impressed?

Back in July, a group of autonomous orange EVs from Vislab left Italy on a trip that would take them through cities like Moscow and wastelands like the Gobi Desert, all thanks to an array of laser scanners, cameras, and of course GPS.
It was a 13,000km journey (8,078 miles) that was made with minimal driver intervention and, thanks to the EV-nature of the vehicles, without stopping once for gasoline - though they were limited to about four hours of travel each day before having to recharge. They arrived in Shanghai on 28th October.

Sam Songailo

Sam Songailo's installation 'Paintings About Techno' is mesmerizing and hypnotic, and I think I'd go cross-eyed if I stayed in that room too long.

The Simpsons X Banksy

I look forward to every couch gag of The Simpsons, but this has got to be one of, if not the, best so far.
Banksy guest directs on this one, and really goes to town!
