Berlin-based artist Sarah Schoenfeld put liquified drops of various drugs onto photo negatives and then developed them in the dark room. The chemical reaction (which she dubbed "modern alchemy") between the drugs and the negatives' emulsion resulted in some pretty amazing "high art".

Below are some of my favorites. Full gallery here.

Heroin

LSD

Speed

Caffeine

"Happy" (Official Music Video) // Pharrell Williams

One of my favorite music videos of 2013 that makes me smile and want to get up and dance every time I hear it. 

I'm a sucker for all things Paul Smith - the detail and precision that goes into each product, the patterns (stripes!), the colors, and of course the man himself.

These beautiful Oblique dominoes are the result of the collaboration between Paul Smith, Derek Walsh Studio, and Graphical House. In total, it took 155m of solid American walnut, 15m² of laminate, 8,400 hand drilled holes, 1,400 dominoes, 45 processes per domino, 95m of sandpaper, and 18 files to produce a limited 50 sets.

Each domino is meticulously crafted to perfection in the signature Paul Smith colors - navy blue and pink - and comes in equally well-designed packaging. I can only imagine the smooth texture and how it feels to hold these dominoes.

Steph Mantis is the Brooklyn-based designer / maker and creative soul behind this adorable and functional animal head Pack Rack, a wall-mountable rack that can be used to hold your jewelry, keys, and any hangable knickknacks. Other items designed by Steph like the candy coasters, animal butt magnets, and "forever pizza" wedges all echo her playful and quirky aesthetic.

If you live in Brooklyn, you don't have to venture too far away to get your very own Pack Rack. Simply stop into Life:Curated, a small Williamsburg shop that is chock full of character and whimsy. If you don't live in Brooklyn or New York, no worries - they deliver too!
