The Munny Show, DIY vinyl toy show

As mentioned on many occassions I love Bill Streeter's mini-docs (mini-documentaries) on St. Louis alternative arts and culture scene. They range from interviews with local artists to local events like local semi-pro wrestling and ladies roller derby.

Bill posted his latest mini-doc, this one on the Munny Art Show in St. Louis. The Munny is a design-it-yourself vinyl doll. Watch the video, it's pretty cool.

Play Flash version Play Quicktime version A Munny (pronounced like “money”) is a vinyl toy that comes completely blank so it can be customized. Star Clipper Comics sponsored a Munny Art show last week for St. Louis Artists to show off their own customized Munny creations. LO-FI SAINT LOUIS was there to document the event.

Transparent City

I don't have the translation but I love the premise of this video not to mention the graphics. The transparent society. Oh so pretty, oh so scarry. What do we gain, what do we loose? How do we re-define public and private space not only in cyberspace but in the new world order.

Perhaps someone will leave a translation and some background info in the comments.
