“Amsterdam via LA transplant Justin Blyth has just released the first issue of Them Thangs magazine entitled The New Dark Age. Expanding on the themes of his blog them-thangs.com, the zine showcases work from 13 artists and photographers including Erik Brunetti, William Eadon, Corey Smith, Mark Maggiori and Todd Tourso. Disguised as a tiny zine, the mag folds out into a massive 24″ x 33″ double sided poster filled with imagery that your mother surely would not approve of.”
Good to see that Justin is actually working with artists...when I first heard about this, I thought he was just pilfering stuff off the web to sell. Glad I was wrong...Buy The New Dark Age HERE

M-City and Ozmo Collaboration
Gojin Ishihara Book Art
Gojin Ishihara is a Japanese artist who specialised in macabre, scary and downright disturbed imagery for mainly childrens books in Japan during the 70's and 80's. If I was a child seeing this, I think that this artist would have given me nightmares for years to come! His illustrations are both grotesque & fascinating and had me actually thinking of trying to buy some of the publications he has worked on...

SKINNER App
I developed this app with Skinner a while back and after some issues with apple taking offense to images in the app, it is finally approved. ;)
This application is the first of its kind. A documentation of the strange and esoteric exploits of a psychedelic visionary. His music, paintings, and comedic commentary of contemporary life. Having shown his work in the museum of contemporary art in Rome to the world class gallery of White Walls in San Francisco, his bizarre installations and impressions of the tumult and horror of the convenience of modern life are now spreading at an exponential rate, to disturb all sections of the globe. This application will be updated as the exploits of Skinner expand, As the travels, shows, cartoons, and music evolve with the exploration he undertakes in his quest to journey further into the undiscovered realms of the absurd and challenging matter of reality.
It consists of over 200 of Skinners paintings as well as music and videos, the app will be updated as Skinner creates.
get it here for $1.99
