Fooling April at the Crash Mansion (NYC)



I think you might not know this group! I discovered him in New York, last friday at the Crash Mansion.


They play pretty well, and the singer's voice reminded me of Jamie Cullum, a really great artist.


"The way back down" is one of my favorites!







You can find them on You Tube for videos!







And also on www.myspace.com/fa and www.foolingapril.com, which is there official website.

One word: ENJOY!

A Urban Artist Network: making art accessible to everybody!

While surfing on the web, I hit up a "urban artist network" on www.urbanartistnetwork.net

The logo captured my attention, because it reminded me the NBA logo! But here it's a tagger
with a spray can in his hand.



But there are not just bombers in the B.R.I.D.G.E. Collective open association of artists , I've found for example Joslyn Virgin, a photograph.


To go back to this Urban Artist Network, their mission is really social and right: "to make the arts accessible to people of all economic and educational backgrounds while promoting emerging urban artists". It's an art service organization.

I would also see them offering services for Marketing and Advertising campaigns. For example this bus might be designed for firemen!

The keepers of the Flame

Also all the website is well designed. I like the painting effect on the right side of the page while looking at the gallery.

I haven't been able to find a lot of stuffs about these people on the web, may be you will be luckier than me.

Mark Jenkis: why not a street marketer?!

What about this one?!
As a Marketing & Business Student, I would simply say that this could be a really great street marketer! In fact Street marketing for those who don't know that, is when you use the streets or local environment to promote your products. Here are some examples on this website focusing on street marketing and buzz marketing campaigns. For "anti suicide" campaigns for example!



Or even a campaign for the whales protection!

Let's have a look, and enjoy it : www.xmarkjenkinsx.com.
His Storker project is such a crazy one! And the videos are great! So funny the one with the ghost homeless! and the guy with his head inside the wall! Fantastic!
