If you’re wondering what to do tonight, I suggest you run, don’t walk to see the film Man On Wire. In 1974 a young Frenchman named Philippe Petit illegally rigged a wire between New York’s Twin Towers, which were at the time the world’s largest buildings. This beautiful film narrates Petit’s incredible talent of wire walking and the incredible planning which took six and a half years to turn a dream into a reality. Much like a bank heist, it took years of planning to bypass security, plan the rigging, and eventually step out on the wire and become a legend. Dubbed the artistic crime of the century, he spent nearly an hour dancing between the two towers on a wire more than 1,350 above the sidewalks of Manhattan. The story is beautiful, the footage is mind boggling, and the price of the ticket, very worth it. Seriously, this movie was inspiring, funny, and moving — take the family.

Prague is known for having that take-your-time-because-life-is-beautiful vibe which translates into three-hour meals. Finding a restaurant called NoStress was no surprise. Aside from your typical fine dinning menu and atmosphere, there is an art gallery with rotating contemporary exhibitions below the restaurant. Perfect for browsing while sipping wine after ordering your first course. We love the merge of fine food and art — that should be obvious by now — but there was a little side quest to my dinner. I’ve been in search of an Asian dish (other than Sag Paneer in Indian food) that uses cheese. NoStress specializes in French Asian fusion and it gave me a glimpse of the mythical combination of cheese with my Thai chili pesto risotto. It was a fusion dish, so only half credit, but tasty. NoStress is in the center of Prague near the Jewish Quarter.

“We know you’re dying to show off your single-speed bike with gold handlebars,” reads the upcoming San Francisco Outside Lands festival information for concertgoers. Don’t be too turned off — what better way to celebrate Radiohead being the first artist to play in Golden Gate Park at night? The former equestrian park will play host to 60+ performers during the arts and music-filled afternoons. Manu Chao, M. Ward, Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings will also be playing on August 22, 23, and 24, respectively.

The festival has a decent CrowdFire networking component where music fans (and those who would want to hear the music while holding onto their $225) can find and upload videos, audio, and blog posts. The online experience also has more information on greening the three-day experience than on its vendors — how very Bay Area. But please, no camping.

Between the opening ceremonies and the most decorated athlete in history, this year’s Olympics in Beijing are arguably larger than life. So how do you pay tribute to something that big? You go small. The Hong Kong Lego Users Group painstakingly recreated everything from The Bird’s Nest to The Water Cube brick by brick in Legos. Tennis, ping-pong, beach volleyball, soccer, sailing, swimming and windsurfing are among the dozens of sports rendered in tiny details in the replica, which measures about 26 feet by 10 feet. If you stare at the images long enough, you can almost spot Michael Phelps’ mother cheering in the bleachers and a sweat-stained George W. Bush mugging with Misty May-Treanor. More than 300,000 Lego bricks and 4,500 Lego people were used to create the display, which is on display until the end of the month at Grand Century Place in Hong Kong.

Back in ‘96 the now superstar Web 2.0 politician by the name of Barack Obama ran for State Senate in the 13th District of Illinois, and there’s a T-shirt to prove it. Homage clothing is giving a portion of donations to CARE, a humanitarian organization fighting global poverty if you buy it. We find it to be slightly irreverent, and pretty nifty — just our kind of tee.

Anyone who has been reading this site since the beginning knows it was birthed during the 2004 presidential debates. And it’s probably no great mystery that this time around, if this site could wear a button, it’d be one for Obama. And if a website could vote, he’d be our choice for the next President of the United States of America. Well the bad news is, websites can’t vote, the good news is– those who run it, can, and he has my support. We believe in freedom of speech (you can thank America for believing in that as well), so as expected, you can comment away– but keep it constructive. Unintelligent flaming will not be permitted.

Our favorite minds at Viction:ary have been busy. Earlier this year, they released Printwork, that showcased different designers demonstrating their printing techniques. Now, they’re about to release Musikgraphics, a book that claims to visualize the rhythm of music. And no, hallucinogenics aren’t required (though they might help). For the 288-page book the editors pulled together images and photographs from a variety of record covers, concert posters, and music packaging across many genres of music. You’ll have to make up your own soundtrack.

Our love for toy art crosses all borders here at JoshSpear.com, as you know through our enthusiastic posts. Plastic, paper, vinyl; each is equally adored. So why not a combo of these three formats then? TroyArt’s robot models come in flat, acrylic panels with pieces that you punch out and assemble by matching slit to slit. They’re a little like the 2009 version of Japanese Gundam toys. Contact them directly in Brazil to find out how you can order one.
