The new card game published as a collaboration by Rollo and Nieves is quite a flexible deck. The artist who drew the 100 cards, Masanao Hirayama, sees the deck having three possible uses: a simple memory game, a modified version of the quick draw Japanese card game Karuta, or for an entirely new game with rules written by the players. The deck contains 50 drawings, each printed on two cards, with a printed cardboard box. (via Masanao Hirayama: Card Game / Journal / Nothing Major)

The new Rodarte short film/advertisement, "This Must Be The Only Fantasy," indicates that it's worthwhile to have Beach House legitimately involved in scoring a project rather than using a soundalike. The film, released in conjunction with Rodarte's SS13 collection, and directed by Todd Cole, follows a teenage girl in Encino, CA through suburban scenes that combine magical realism with campy fantasy imagery. There's a scene that transitions by zooming into a unicorn's eye. If you're curious about the unicorn, view the 13-minute film below.

The fashion industry, as anyone involved in it knows, is competitive, and fashion designers, just like pro athletic teams or stars, often have loyal fans and followers. Now with designer jerseys by LPD NYC, fashion fans can represent their favorite designers without the price tag often attached to the designer's actual goods. Inspired by basketball jerseys, the designer jerseys contain a minimal design with a designer name and year of birth on the back of each garment in traditional athletic jersey font. Prices range from 85 dollars for a basic T-shirt style to 155 dollars for a hoodie. (via LPD NYC Designer Jerseys / Journal / Nothing Major)

Folk Clothing shows us that the later months of the year don’t have to be so drab. The London label's Fall/Winter 2013 collection brings the quirky to casual ready-to-wear. Folk's way with colors, juxtaposing bright shades against neutrals, is a breath of fresh air for those who need cheer long after the sun tan fades.

For a new documentary profile, Ghostly sent filmmaker Will Calcutt to Rochester, NY to spend some time with artist Andy Gilmore in his studio. Gilmore, a frequent Ghostly collaborator who has contributed cover art for albums from artists like Gold Panda (whose music happens to soundtrack the profile), also releases his own work through the label's in-house art division, Ghostly International Editions. In addition to prints and music packaging, Gilmore's geometric illustrations have appeared in the pages of Wired, The New York Times, and a long list of publications. Check out the profile, and some of Gilmore's work below. (via Watch A Ghostly Profile of Andy Gilmore / Journal / Nothing Major)

Happy Socks, the eclectic Swedish sock brand, is well named. The brand's latest lookbook, for Fall/Winter 2013, exemplifies this spirit as models demonstrate styles from the CHAPTER #SIX collection while skateboarding, laughing with friends, casually standing by quintessential New York scenery and so on. Pieces start at 10 dollars, are available in a wide range of colors and prints and add zing to any otherwise average fall look. (via Happy Socks FW13 Lookbook / Journal / Nothing Major)

Herschel Supply Co. and New Balance follow up their Spring 2013 series with a new fall collection. The small line features New Balance’s 420 and H710 silhouettes in ripstop nylon and suede. The collaborative kicks are available in grey, burgundy, and fatigue green and lined with Herschel’s signature paisley print.

Nicholas of Hollows Leather is a busy fellow. The one-man leather operation out of Minneapolis has just restocked his webstore with an impressive range of handcrafted leather goods. Expect to find some triple wrap bracelets, key reins, belt loop keychains, mid-length wallets, and leather coasters. We particularly like Hollows Leather’s standard belts—now available in black and burgundy Latigo in addition to the natural veg tan. Each belt is custom-sized and handmade at 1.5” wide, from 9 oz. leather with your choice of hardware. (via Hollows Leather Standard Belts / Journal / Nothing Major)

If you were keeping up with Make Zine's Maker Camp this week, you'd already have built a homemade marimba, a set of tube-driven speakers with LED lights, a one-string Diddley Bow guitar, and by the end of the weekend, an LED organ. In addition to daily DIY tutorials, the Make editors also curate a series of Google Hangout lectures every Tuesday, the most recent featuring sound artist Jesse Seay. Check out the full schedule here, including next week's "field trip" to Pixar. (via Maker Camp 2013 / Journal / Nothing Major)

Relatively unknown street photographer Adrian Skenderovic has been shooting basketball hoops during his travels around the globe. Some are makeshift, some neglected, while others are more than up-to-snuff despite their far-flung locations. The photographer is still exploring different angles and formats. The empty court with tropical backdrop shows up a bit, but also the sun-baked, holding-on-by-a-thread hoop close-up. Both formats are effective in their own way and have us longing for a good neighborhood ballgame, as well as a tropical adventure. Time to work on the fadeaway jumper.

We've seen some interesting African poster art for imported Western movies, ranging from the simply amazing to the hilariously absurd. But this is the first time we've seen a great collection of Ghanaian posters for African movies—which likely includes films coming out of Nollywood, Nigeria's film industry—brought together in one place. If the films are 1/10th as gory and bizzarre as the posters, we're obviously missing out on some serious midnight movie entertainment. (via Ghanaian Movie Posters / Journal / Nothing Major)

Picking up where the (now on-hiatus) 20x200 left off, Mammoth and Company sells affordable art online. Founded by CEO and Photographer Troy Moth, the store stocks an inventory of hundreds of prints, usually between three and six works per artist, and titles from a newly launched children's publishing arm Little Mammoth. If a print catches your eye and you order it, it'll ship from the idyllic barn pictured at the bottom of the post, Mammoth and Company's headquarters somewhere in a field in Victoria, British Columbia.

Photographer James Friedman doesn't play golf. At one point, however, he did have an inexplicable collection of golf balls. Naturally he did what any non-golfing photographer would do with such a collection: cut them in half for a photo series called "Interior Design". Considering that most golf balls, stripped of logo, are completely indistinguishable from one other to the untrained eye, the colorful cores discovered in the series are surprising. The golf ball cross sections resemble planetary bodies, some with two or three layers, and others with just a single multicolor filling. Although sporting goods companies might not approve, we're curious to see who manufactured each ball, and some dates would add a welcome context. (via Golf Ball Innards / Journal / Nothing Major)
