Interview KAMMs



Tae:
I would like you to first introduce yourself to many who are unknown of you?
KAMMs:
KAMMs or KAMMs TheACE

Tae:
What type of photographer are you or what's your specialty?

KAMMs:
I’m an artist first. I try not to limit myself. I find myself shooting mostly things that inspire me, a large bit of that includes the 4 elements of Hip Hop. I find myself shooting at or around graffiti walls a lot. I LOVE color.

Jellio Furniture


icecream_lg2
Design firm Jellio, makers of the oversized, rubber gummy bear lights and giant Revell model kits as wall art has added three new pieces to their repertoire of home furnishings made in the image of giant candies and toys.
The Ice Cream Bench is just that: a giant ice cream sandwich you can sit on, made from solid foam, canvas, and white velvet. In the Music Table, an oversized toy xylophone doubles as a tabletop, and we’re told that it really works.
Also, keep a lookout for The Candelier, to be unveiled this January: it’s a three foot wide lighting fixture made form 2,000 fake, acrylic gummi bears. Each one takes a month to build, and will be sold in an edition of ten.

*Feature of the Week: Perfect Man Designs*





This is our first spotlight feature here at The Sweet Life where we speak with different artists, photographers, DJ's, models and so on and so forth. Our first spotlight is a graphic design artist out of Atlanta, GA, Perfect Man. I got a chance to do a little Q and A with him. His work is amazing and I hope you enjoy!!

Tae:
Tell us a little about yourself.

Perfect Man:
I can't give up too much, I'll say I'm open-minded and love to debate about anything from hip-hop, to politics, to which ninja turtle was the best. I'm from Atlanta GA, but it doesn't matter I'm just like you, I'm late paying bills too.

Tae:

Where did you get the name Perfect Man and what made it stick?

Perfect Man:
Man okay, after searching and searching I reached the final level and got the glow like Bruce Leroy!!! Actually, I don't know where it came from, it just had a ring to it but if you think about it, we're all searching for perfection. We all want to be the best in anything that we do and that's how I feel about what I do. *brushes off shoulders*

Tae:
What inspired you to do graphic design?

Perfect Man:
I've been drawing since I could pick up a fat crayon, the graphic design was just the next level. I never wanted to be the starving artist so this looked like a good way to do what I wanted and still make ends meet.

Tae:
How does Perfect Man Designs differ from others?



Perfect Man: 
It's different because I give you *pause* perfection lol, and I work with the people. I'm flexible with prices and I will adjust somebody's shit anytime, no charge. Some cats want to get a dollar any kind of way they can.

Tae:
Are you currently working on any projects?



Perfect Man:
Yeah I'm working on a blog page and a website, and doing some work for the release of Midnight Movie from the Film Skool Rejekts

Tae:
How can people contact you and view your work?

Perfect Man:
To contact me myspace.com/perfectmandesigns......or something more standard mykelarchie@yahoo.com......the web page is coming, I promise.

Tae:
Thank you for your time, is there anything you'd like to add?

Perfect Man:
Oh yeah the blog page is under construction but here it is: www.perfectman.wordpress.com

Classic Video Games in Real Life Situations

patrick-runte-jumprun1

Hamburg-based photographer Patrick Runte recreates scenes from old school videos games in his Oskar Schlemmer-inspired Jump ‘n’ Run series. Pacman, Space Invaders, Pong, and more are all composed in real life situations where Runte has set up depictions of the video games. This is what Runte has to say about his real world counterparts he created: “The work is inspired by Oskar Schlemmer and his idea of the ‘Triadic Ballett’ and the term ‘Streetplay’”, Runte explains. “I wanted to compile old video games, which are based on simple geometric forms and make them able to be experienced / felt by the human body.”

Turn Your Car into a Mobile Masterpiece

Mini Coopers were always cool — small, fun, and easy to modify, what’s not to love? Portland-based artist Matt W. Moore has taken the Mini Cooper to a level of cool, it’s positively geeky. The artist pays homage to the arcade games of yore with two extremely awesome autos.
Tricked out in the classic and classy motifs of Pac-Mac and Space Invaders, these mighty minis are sure to have all eyes on them.
The lesson here is arithmetic: gaming + art + auto = one sweet ride. The gaming gods are pleased.
