LVHRD VDO: DNCHRD IV IS MAY 20th

Mndy May.12.2008 5:03pm | by Dave Franzese

In this week’s VDO we meet DNCHRD’s 6 ambassadors of color. Watch them destroy Uniqlo with their moves, show an elevator who’s boss, and hear a few of the moves you can pull off whilst dancing monochromatically. GRAB YOUR TICKETS, soak up ECLECTIC METHOD’S techniques, and we’ll see you TSDY.


DNCHRD IV: Eclectic Method: 060


Wdnsdy Apr.30.2008 3:14pm | by settlement heart


We visited Jonny Wilson from Eclectic Method in his Madison Ave apartment so he could spin us through the kind of magic we’ll be seeing at DNCHRD IV on May 20: live video mixing on interactive dance walls.

People go nuts when they hear Busta Rhymes come in over Guns & Roses, Cool Hand Luke remixed with scenes from Slam. The very sickness.


DNCHRD I + II Remix: VDO 059


Mndy Apr.14.2008 6:55pm | by settlement heart


Dry-humping, spanking, summersaults and de-pantsing: the best of the best of the best from DNCHRD I & II set to Rockit.

Baby, we like it raw.


VDO: 058: PHTHRD II: Event


Wdnsdy Apr.2.2008 5:33pm | by settlement heart


The latest LVHRD VDO takes you on a whirlwind tour through PHTHRD II at Powerhouse Arena: the grandmas, the afghans, the thousand and one Polaroids and the blazing flashbulbs.


VDO: 057: PHTHRD: Competitors

We sent our PHTHRD II competitors–Jonathan Harris, Joseph O. Holmes and Elizabeth Weinberg–out into the world with a Polaroid camera and asked them to take pictures of anything that filled them with dread, curiosity or awe. Then they sat down and told us about their pictures and why the art of storytelling is something we should do our utmost to protect. The result is a calm, crafted video that raises certain shards of the world caught on film to a new light.

Jonathan, Joseph and Elizabeth will be using Polaroid pictures…


VDO: 056: PHTHRD II 1.1: Storytellers


Tsdy Feb.26.2008 8:06pm | by settlement heart


PHTHRD II will spin a yarn made of stories.

We asked some of New York City’s most experienced storytellers what it means to “live hard” how they would describe their life in one word and whether or not they’d like to live in a world without pictures.

The common thread among all the men and women we interviewed seemed to be that they didn’t want storytelling to become a lost art.

We’re doing our best to prevent that: PHTHRD II, March 25th. A night of narratives written with pictures.


VDO: 055: ARCH DL IV 1.1 TMLPS


Wdnsdy Feb.13.2008 4:11pm | by settlement heart


Latest ARCH DL VDO has the rotation of the sun, the moon and the entire Alaskan Wilderness.

We built a miniature tundra for the architects from KONYK and FXFOWLE to use in their construction of a Wildlife research center at last month’s Architects Duel.

Our compulsion to force creative limitations on intelligent people, however, demanded that they use only plastic drinking straws to build the models.

It’s actually kind of a bizarre video. Unlike anything we’ve ever done. Kind of minimal and sweeping. I really like it.


VDO: 054: ARCH DL IV 1.0


Mndy Jan.21.2008 11:33am | by settlement heart


LVHRD’s own Lumberjack gits hisself ready for ARCH DL IV, chopping down what materials a man is likely to find growing in the city.

Next Tuesday, Jan 29, we’re all headin up north a piece to the A-laskan Wilderness to watch two teams of architects design buildins the likes of which you ain’t never like to have seen.

It’s gonna be a bigun, so git your tickets at the gittin place and show up strapped like a lumberjack: we’ll provide the livestock.

The second VDO from BIFOLD SPORT in the basement of the New York Table Tennis Foundation.

Motion-capture suits, Design pong: Yahtzee.

Ping Pong pro Wally Green talks about how he got his start swatting the ball on the green floor and shows the crowd how he can make you blow the game any way he wants.

VDO: 050: BIFOLD SPORT 1.0: TMLPS

Preview the battle of the balls in the first VDO from BIFOLD SPORT.

With help from Veer, we took over the New York Table Tennis Foundation’s underground palace for a night of sport and design with ping pong pro Wally Green, Upnorth designers Justin Kay and Steve Green and 5boro skateboards founder Mark Nardelli.

You can almost feel the spin in these shots, the naked aggression of backhanded volleys over the net. It was all in fun, but something about going mano y mano with a paddle brings out our competitive…


VDO: 049: FSHN DL IV 2.0


Frdy Nov.9.2007 8:48pm | by settlement heart


Designers from Eventide and The Lake and Stars dish on the origins of their enigmatic names, inspirations, and how they feel about smut in the second VDO from FSHN DL IV.

Scissors between the teeth, watch the construction of the magazine dresses that the teams so bravely built in front of a zombie horde. Savage fashion never looked so good.

This VDO dives deep into the fashion Hades. Brace yourself.
