We’ve been hitting the streets lately to promote creativity all across these United States. In fact, you might have seen some tagging if you were in San Francisco for Bay to Breakers last weekend. Los Angeles, Cambridge, Chicago – get ready for us this summer. We’ll let you know when and would be happy to get you a drink or caffeine fix in exchange for some good conversation.

I’m always captivated when I look at the city in which I live in from high above. Flight just has this serene quality to it that simplifies the world beneath. That’s why Stephan Zirwes’s series of aerial photographs named “Zones and Fields” had such a calming effect on me. Stop what you’re doing right now and see if you agree. [via VeryShortList]

Jelly is casual coworking that’s happening in over 20 cities around the globe. This Friday is San Diego’s next Jelly and you’re invited. The Hive (home to Holiday Matinee, Sezio, BHaus Media…) will host it by providing an incredible creative space, wireless internet, and interesting people to talk to, collaborate with and bounce ideas off of. You bring a laptop (or whatever you need to get work done) and a smile. No matter what you do or what you create, you’re welcome to come to Jelly and share your talent and learn from others.

Walls Notebook is a notebook / sketchbook with 80 “clean” New York City walls as your blank slate. Makes a great gift as you write, draw, paste, or doodle on these sweet backdrops. You’ll be one step closer to being the graffiti artist you’ve always wanted to be . . . minus the jail time.  [via swissmiss]

It’s time for another Judd Apatow movie and if you don’t know who that is, you’re probably not funny and shouldn’t be reading this blog. Funny People comes out in July and features the usual suspects Seth Rogen, Jonah Hill and Leslie Mann as well as Apatow newbies Adam Sandler, RZA and my personal faves Jason Schwartzman and Aziz Ansari. Should be a good summer, don’t ya think?

Would buying a $700k 3-bedroom luxury condo on the lakefront of Austin for as little as $45k peak your interest? The folks at iBidcondo sure hope so. The recently launched online auction site offers a unique platform making real estate affordable while also giving back to the community. A hundred bucks gets you into the auction where there’s no minimum price and the highest bid is donated to the charity of your choice. To prove this isn’t a scam, the first auction is confirmed for May 26th and will probably sell for an outrageously low price. Check out the how-to video and hop on Twitter for free seats to the first auction. We’ll definitely be keeping an eye on this.

I love their beer and now their design. This stamp was issued on the 27th of June, 1970 and was designed by J.Malvaux. Beautiful. [via grain edit]
