'Never Comes Tomorrow' by Jacob Hashimoto


Jacob Hashimoto creates works of art on a grand scale. He is distinctly American yet he is also connected with his Japanese lineage in a truly creative manner. The Colorado-born artist, fascinated by the correlation between space, time, and the astral dynamics of planets and constellations, has created a three-dimensional structure called Never Comes Tomorrow using wooden cubes and other abstract forms. 

Also present in Jacob's solo exhibition at Studio La Citta in Verona, Italy is a new series of his traditional kites. There are circles, squares, some multicolored with designs and patterns, some in solid vibrant hues. Never Comes Tomorrow is up until September 12, 2015.

The Salimbaa

Here's a strange tribal instrument I never heard of before now. Originally from the Tinananon tribe of southern Philippines, the bowl-shaped Salimbaa is made of metal and wood, has 30 bronze wound strings, and is played using two small sticks.  Caleb Byerly, who makes lost/extinct musical tools in his North Carolina workshop, has an interesting story on how he made his first Salimbaa. WATCH: More details about Caleb and his craft over at  Our State .

Nike Blazer Mid 77 Scribble

When I was in high school, doodling on kicks was a thing. How cool to come into class, learn a few things, then walk out with a pair of scribbled-on sneakers. Even today, many basketball stars are using their shoes for much more than performance. Take a close look at their trainers and you'll find messages written all over. Now Nike is celebrating the process with the release of its Blazer Mid 77 Scribble. Aside from the hand-drawn sidewall Swoosh, the shoe also has smaller notes hidden all over, including the style name and the year it was made. The tongue is also equipped with the brand's logo, which has been hand-drawn in black. I really like the design, especially the imperfect lines. And since we're talking about scribbled-on sneakers, I can't not mention Niko Pelaez . He's a true shoe-drawing machine!  [h/t: Sneaker News ]
