TLDR: My new painting of a boombox is also a bluetooth speaker that you can pair to your phone and play music from.

It's called Boomtooth and I've been tinkering with it for a while. It took a bit of code, a soldering iron and a whole bunch of interneting to put this together.

I don’t know what to say about this one, only that it was stuck in my head for a week and now it’s not. I think I’ll make prints and pins.

@lurie_john I was instagram-marketed a Basquiat Igloo cooler. Late stage capitalism, we're running out of shit to sell to each other.

Hip hop music or simply music in general is borderless.

An artifact lost between multiple layers of reality, rises out into ours. Anyone remember this one? How far did you get? A remix of sorts, a bit of alternate nostalgia. I wanted to paint it, now I want to play it. Object #8101 is available. #TheLastOfUS #NES #Nintendo
