We’re really internet and we’re really back. A website about things Benjamin , Chuck , Virgil , and various friends & guests think are interesting. Little-to-no specific focus, a bit odd, speling errors, and incredibly culturally relevant.

Ned Kahn’s installations!

My friend Rick just put me on to this guys work - specifically the ‘Articulated Clouds’ piece. His work is a bit hard to describe real quick in a post - he’s definitely one of ‘those’ artists. I’m a fan of these artist’s by the way. My first impression was that his work is largely inspired by weather and specific weather occurrences - clouds, wind, tornados, fog, even fire, etc. He does super large scale projects - some of which look to be pretty temporary while others are permanent structural/architectural elements of a building. So yeah, again, hard to explain his work - better to just check it out. I’m quite a fan of the smoke rings and tornado pieces. The tornado in the middle of the huge circular staircase/walk-way is pretty unreal. Check it out below. ***Quick fun fact, I just had a fantastic #4 from Jimmy John’s, any Jimmy John’s fans out there? Am I the only one who puts the Jalepeno chips on the actual sandwich?? Gives it a little crunch, so good.
