If you’re lucky enough to be in San Francisco, you can check out the Game Over 3 Art Show at GSRF which opens tonight and runs through April 14th. The show features all kinds of video game-inspired art by plenty of top artists including Sasha Barr, Grant Reynolds, and Marc Johns (who we’re obsessed with). Oh, and Giant Robot, you’re not so bad yourself.

The highlighter kids are at it again. Oh wait, it’s just Marc Johns being his awesome, clever self. Is there anything this guy can’t do that isn’t this?

Rosa Loves is a cause that rakes in 100% of the cash from t-shirt sales for specific groups in the community that surrounds them. It’s very similar to our Artist Series t-shirts and it’s a great example of a group that pays attention to what’s going on in their community and takes action by doing something to help. Mike Fretto, the guy who owns Rosa Loves, designed the t-shirt below to raise donations for relief efforts in Haiti. Creativity is great and it’s even better when it’s used for a great cause (and not to make other creative people jealous).

San Diego native Matt Stallings is an artist, painter, designer, admirer of film, husband, brother, father, son and your new best friend. Well, he probably doesn’t have time to be your best best friend but his artwork can fill the void. Here are two of my personal favorites.

There’s nothing more refreshing then seeing good innovative design in an industry not known for its creativity really. That industry I’m talking about is condoms and more specifically, Durex condoms. Durex just unleashed their new ad campaign and much to our pleasant surprise, it’s centered entirely around typography and, well, you know.

Now I’m a sucker for anything that has a Millennium Falcon in it, but this manipulation photography by Fred Perrot is really quite exceptional. I can’t imagine how in the world he does it, but it’s incredibly clever to say the least. [via Looks Like Good Design]

The METI School designed by Anna Heringer and Eike Roswag is a building project in Rudrapur, Bangladesh that does more than just teach kids. It shows the people who live in that area the goodness of using the resources they already have in rural building development. By showing the benefits of good design (which you know we like a lot) and planning, the quality of life could be improved for the people in rural areas and jobs can be created. Now everyone is happy and there can be rainbows, sparkles, and unicorns all around. (via ArchDaily)

Free Adventures is an on-the-road-and-you-wish-you-were-apart-of-it documentary that will show what goes on during a trip with no cash to spend on fuel, food and a place to stay. These guys plan on reusing the waste they produce and trading creativity (yay!) and community service for the basic essentials. To donate some money for the motor coach (fueled by vegetable oil) they’ll be using for the trip, you can go to this page and donate at least $10 or even more if you feel like it.

I just spent the past five minutes clicking through a press copy of PSFK’s new book, Good Ideas for 2010, and being wow’ed/slightly jealous that I didn’t come up with these ideas myself. The book is a round-up of the best ideas PSFK ever put on their website in 2010 and the book is available to buy (or maybe add to this year’s wish list) here. One of the ideas in the book is Mystery Seeker, a Google-like search engine that gives you the search results for the previous user’s search. The results can be hilarious. Try it! But don’t be surprised if the previous user is a guy posting his e-mail. When I used it for the first time a few months ago, a lot of guys were using it as a way to find “casual online encounters” with girls.

Great find today by SwissMiss on Why You Should Buy Art! It’s available on the awesome 20×200 and last I checked there were 300 copies left of the 14″ x 11″ edition. This will look great next to your Anthony Burrill poster.
