05.19.09Blue Zebra Photo Lab Opens In AllstonEntering the darkroom at Blue Zebra Photo Lab in Allston from thathottness on Vimeo. In the rush to demonize Craigslist, let us not forget that the site is actually useful for more than booty call ads. For example, where else could you find a second-hand darkroom door only a Zip-car ride away? Luckily, the co-owners of Allston's new Blue Zebra Photo Lab won't have to answer that question. Andrea Katz and Katty Walsh spotted a swiveling door for their photo lab on Craigslist a few months back and scooped it up for $75. In addition to being endlessly entertaining, the door seals off ...

05.19.09The Globe, the Globe, the Globe is on fire…Hey Johnny Diaz...remember that time the Globe stole copy from "Boston's dailies, weekly newspapers, local blogs, Boston Police Department reports, and Twitter feeds" and tried to pass it off as community reporting? It was called Your Town, and you got sued for it. Seems like it was enough of a "form of journalism" for y'all to try to make a buck.

05.01.09Dead Video / Live Video Festival x MassArt (5/2)What happens when Boston's top visual artist of 2009 hooks up with a coterie of cutting edge audio/visual theorists, filmmakers, musicians and performers from across the globe for a one-day symposium at MassArt? They poison cats. But in the quiet moments, between skinning and re-animating, participants at the Dead Video / Live Video Festival will probe the merger of art and technology with experimental performances, film screenings and a windows-to-the-walls afterparty. Boston's preeminent scholar of mixology, DJ Flack, will also take the stage to showcase his sound spewing "guiboard," which is a hell of a lot cooler than a gui-tar (E-string not ...
