While shooting some footage around the Tokyo streets last August I kept recognizing these “sumo face” decals almost everywhere around Tokyo, alot of them in Harajuku and Asakusa somehow, streetart still seems to be big in Tokyo. I even saw a little documentary about these “sumo faces” if I can find it again I will post the youtube link below aswell.
I hope you enjoy this video its just a little compilation of streetart in Tokyo.

Jason Paparoulas from The Bakehouse (Australia) shot these pictures and they are really amazing. Of course, I only posted them because you can look at some really rare sneakers. ;-)
All pictures belong to Jason Paparoulas. See more of them on his blog and flickr account.

P.S.: Model is Jarrah Flemming Gardiner and to be honest with you: I didn’t only post them because of the sneakers.
This is just in between and the video is already older (alreadyyyyy), but other than that I don’t think any words are needed. You just have to watch.

If you happen to be in NYC during the 22nd of November 2009 and April 26th 2010 I would recommend you this exhibition by filmmaker Tim Burton.
Check out the video interview with Tim Burton by The Museum of Modern Art.

That’s handicraft work for sneakerheads. David Brownings does these paper shoes of NIKE Dunk Highs.
You can even ask him for your own pair in your own colorway via his site.

Since Chrishimself turned this thing here in a video posting blog (just kidding of course, but you really should check out those last posts by him….), I also wanted to join the fun by posting this music video featuring a song by Japanese band SOUR from their mini album ‘Water Flavor EP‘, done in webcam-conference-style (if that wasn’t a word before, now it is!).
And in my opinion it’s done in amazingly creative fashion. Now is your chance to watch it finally.

The guys from SNEAKERIZED (also check our previous post) returned from this year’s Sneakerness in Vienna with a nice little video that shows us what was going on there. Of course, sneakers of all brands and eras had been on display and also for sale, but also t-shirts, skate boards and street art. Bobbito even made his way to Austria as you can see in the videos, presenting his new model with Pro-Keds.
Through SNEAKERIZED I also found a link to Gaby Zwaan’s site, who made his own video. He has some incredible pieces of art. For real. Go and check out some of these here. Hopefully, we will have some more from him soon here on RUN FFM.
SNEAKERIZED and fm4 also have some more pics for you.
It seems, that the next Sneakerness is going to be held in Germany in 2010, so I definitely think we shouldn’t miss out on all the fun next year.

Takashi Murakami is working together with Louis Vuitton again on some brand new projects and has released a short teaser for the new animation called “Superflat First Love“.
Theres another 5min animation by Takashi Murakami after the jump.
Hey finally started drawing on the “DIY Munny” from Kidrobot out of boredom. Just got a pen and did some freehand drawing on it which turned out to be some kind of Power Ranger x Viewtiful Joe mixture…
Well I finished it its a bit edgy and certainly rough but I like it hehe and I’m ready to draw on another one.
If you have ever wondered how Nigo the founder of the brand A Bathing Ape lives you have got the chance to check out this exclusive interview with the man himself. His place is a mad playground all these collectables and artworks everywhere, I love it. Watch it, this time its even in ENGLISH ! haha its a weird dubbed version but its okay at least you understand it without knowing how to speak japanese.
peace
