HELLO,

I am Steev's blog where he collects things he finds, cool, inspiring, funny, ridiculous, ridiculously funny, inspiringly cool, and all other permutations of those 4 words.

A POLAROID A DAY / DESIGN / TWITTER

They’re called café racers and this is the beginning of my enthusiastic plunge into learning, saving and hopefully building one. A stripped down little sport bike with WWII toughness for about 10% of the cost of a Harley. Understated and mean. It’s a total whim and I can barely afford my rent, let alone a motorcycle, but you’ve got to think big or sink into your mediocre, wretched little lives. If you were uninterested in all my track bicycle posts, you might as well stop following me cos here come the café bikes.

THE FIRST OF MANY OR WE’LL SEE HOW THIS GOES

I’m going to put together a small, lo-fi publication that I’m trying not to call a “zine”. I’m asking for submissions. It will be a 5x5 inch saddle stitched book. So I’d ask for a page or a spread. You can go full bleed. I’d like designers and non-designers to give me stuff so it stays interesting. Don’t get metaphorical on everybody’s ass, I just want to see cool, funny, random things that would make a cheap little book worth flipping through. For instance, one spread is simply going to be the word “falafel” set in futura extra bold oblique so don’t waste too much time. Most art zines are weird esoteric spreads trying to say something impactful. I want to do the opposite of that.

So, anybody interested?

davidschiller asked: Where do you live now?

And why am I asking this on Tumblr, and not Facebook?

I live in Chicago and work downtown. And I didn’t know you could message people on Tumblr. How’d you do this?

I don’t know what’s cooler, his ridiculous beard or the fact that his hat looks like a 1920’s lampshade.
