Andy Warhol Augmented Reality
"I don't know where the artificial stops and the real starts."
The title is quite a cliche but the Andy Warhol Museum released an augmented reality app that's really cool. Imagine walking down a Manhattan street, holding a smart phone in front of your face and watching icons of the late artist's face pop up whenever you pass a landmark from his career. It's just so, you know, Warhol.

Art Info on Foursquare
I'm admittedly a little late to this one but I just found ArtInfo.com on Foursquare and they've done a good job. When you check in with Art Info on Foursquare you unlock New York's art world. You'll discover the city's top art galleries, the coolest artist hangouts and more. Love the continued incorporations of digital into the art world.

Art Gift Registry
A while back I told you about nAscent Art, a wedding registry for original art, allowing friends and family to pool their money together for gifts. The problem with nAscent is that it's limited to New York artists. Enter Giwaza, a site that allows people to pool together money for any type of art.

iPad = iMisrach!
While all of the talk of the talk of the iPad (for better or worse) was about it's functionality, design and evolution of the iPhone, it was the background of the screen that rocked my world. Watching the news conference via Engadget's site, I was thrilled to see my favorite photographer's, Richard Misrach, image (Pyaramide Lake, at night, taken in 2004) as the desktop of Steve Jobs' iPad. I'm sure not many people realized that (I'm guessing about 10), but that got me more excited than the new release from Apple.

New Banksy Site
With all the Sundance buzz this weekend, I'm on a Bansky roll! Not sure when this site went live, but it's new to me and it's a great resource for all things about the troublemaker.
