MEET STEFANO CICCONARDI

Aside from being a total vagenius, Stefano Cicconardi is one of the most mind blowingly creative people on this planet. He is the H.D.I.C. (head dick in charge) at KOOK Artgency www.kook.it ....just go to gooogle translate to make it into english.... These guys mean business.
You know how there are some marketing people and places out there who are like .... hummm.. should I wear the "Ck1" or the "Blue Water" today ??? smarr smarr smargity smarr smarr??? Well KOOK tells these pansies to go rub on some "aqua di toiletta" grab their manties and then throws them down into the ichiban soup line faster that you can say go go gadget poop shoot.
KOOK Artgency is a more unconventional communication agency that rules in guerrilla, viral, street, art and digital marketing. So they produce highly strategic effects by making their work, WORK for you. Basically they are masters of designs and develop graphic, editorial, audiovisual and visual art formats.
Now back to Stefano.
I was watching Candy -1968 the other night and it dawned on me that Ringo and Stef have quite the resemblance.

Year 1877 Japanese Preggo Dolls
So, I was doing a little research for a trend report I am putting out and stumbled across these amazingly weird fascinating dolls ... Apparently they were exhibited in Japan along side side-shows and used to evoke wonder and satiate deep curiosity for the mysteries of life in the high brow humans of late 19th century. They are strangely eerily beautiful.. I had to share them.



Speaking of Japan, this song was given to me as a gift from a dear friend not too long ago. Please take a listen.. It too is eerily beautiful. The artist is Masumi Hara 原マスミ and the song is Yume No Yonbai.
