Live and Awry in New York

July 28, 2008 by KIOSK

This is a link to a video of a cyclist being assaulted by a cop
From Boing­Bo­ing:
” Although a judge ruled in 2006 that the monthly Crit­i­cal Mass bicy­cle rides could pro­ceed with­out a per­mit, the NYPD’s stance remains some­what adver­sar­ial. Though the city has not been enforc­ing the con­tro­ver­sial parade per­mit law when it comes to […]

kutztown crafts and PA dutch and german

July 18, 2008 by KIOSK

On July 2 we went to the annual, week long Kutz­town Fes­ti­val in search of Amer­i­can things. Although it is billed as a PA Dutch fair there were many peo­ple call­ing them­selves PA Ger­man. What is the dif­fer­ence? I found out it is the same, check it out on the Wiki, a fas­ci­nat­ing story. We […]

a beautiful moving truck

July 10, 2008 by KIOSK

How beau­ti­ful is this mov­ing truck? Spot­ted all over Boston, Casey & Hayes. If KIOSK ever owns trucks I have our inspi­ra­tion, damn it is hyp­notic. Just when you are in the dumps about mov­ing, around the cor­ner comes the gold let­ter­ing. It sparkles, it shines, it cries out “Your goods are worth their weight […]

A new york coffee shop

July 7, 2008 by KIOSK

Not your aver­age cof­fee shop, Zibetto! Founded by one of the own­ers of our favorite cof­fee bar in Stock­holm, Sosta, is it run in the tra­di­tion of an Ital­ian cof­fee bar, no tables, walk in, remain stand­ing, have a really good cof­fee and go. No Amer­i­can cof­fee is served here and def­i­nitely it is contrary […]

Massachusetts #6: is this what you are eating this weekend?

July 5, 2008 by KIOSK

Does this look like your 4th of July week­end at the beach? We all suc­cumb to the fried jazz (not music) while at the seashore. How­ever, I was sur­prised we fell for it while in the hills of Mass­a­chu­setts. If you head up to Mass­Moca, as many do, stop by Pedrin’s, home of the fish […]

Massachusetts #5: Lee

by KIOSK

Lee, Mass­a­chu­setts, a beau­ti­ful town and to an out­sider, a patri­otic one of sorts at that. It’s mas­sive white Romanesque style church built in 1857, Main Street and Joe’s Diner gives it an All-American touch, in a good way. Rock­well, the most Amer­i­can of Amer­i­can painters we all know and some pos­si­bly love, was buzzing […]

Plastic Bag Happening Day 4

July 1, 2008 by Marco

More things hap­pen­ing, the space is really packed with bags and Jason is sewing away. Sit­ting among them yes­ter­day I thought it would be great to make a sub-room in KIOSK with the walls made of plas­tic bags that can hold all of the prod­ucts com­mis­sioned for the Mini-Exhibitions. Will have to talk to Jason […]
