Duck Sauce x Fool’s Gold Toy



DJ heroes A-trak and Armand Van Helden have turned their musical collaboration “Duck Sauce” into an ultra-cool, limited edition rubber duck toy now available at Colette France. “Duck Sauce” is the 2009 EP that found A-trak and Armand Van Helden crafting brand new mixes inspired by their favorite vintage disco house tunes. The record sleeve to “Duck Sauce” and video to their widely popular single, “aNYway” both feautre a cocky, baseball-jacketed, vinyl-toting, duck mascot designed by Fool’s Gold art director Dust La Rock who also created the packaging. The beautifully sculpted, hand painted rubber duck is not only fun to look at, but it actually floats in water as well! There’s a limited edition of only 1000 pieces so be sure to act fast if you’d like to own one. For more information on the Duck Sauce toy and to purchase, be sure to visit Colette’s website. Thanks to Hypebeast for the info and photos!

Logorama: Oscar winner for animated short film



The winner of the Oscar animated short film this year, Logorama. It is written and directed by H5 – Francois Alaux, HervĂ© de Crecy and Ludovic Houplain. Logorama takes place in a world full of corporate and brand logos (in which roughly 2500 logotypes and mascots), and it follows a few different stories that all intertwine with one another. In it, you'll see the Michelin Man, the Haribo kid, Bob's Big Boy, Mr. Pringle and Ronald McDonald. Honestly, it's bloody brilliant! Definitely an interesting short movie!
