JUXTAPOZ / OCEANS "INFILTRATE" AT UF

This last week has seen the beginnings of a nationwide awareness tour for the sake of preserving our oceans and precious living resources. The project is called the Oceans Tour, promoting the Disney Oceans release, with Participant Media, TMD and Planet Illogica. The tour consists of sculptures of endangered species creatures; turtles, albatross, jellyfish to name but a few. I caught up with freelance reporter Elle Newbold on the University of Florida's campus to get the full scoop, with photos by Ken Goldstein. Click here for the full deal.

JUXTAPOZ / RON ENGLISH SXSW

Had a chance to catch up with Ron before his trip out to Austin, TX for SXSW. We had a great talk and got into a lot of fun topics like where the ideas come from, his connection to music and new things on the horizon. Click here for more.

MANIFEST EQUALITY

The big event of 2010 thus far has been the socio-political arts gathering Manifest Equality. Held in a customized pop up space in Hollywood on Vine, this extremely well attended and loving display of positivity and growth featured amazing live music, tons of great people and... a fine art show of staggering proportions.
