kottke:
Last week, graffiti “artist” Kidult painted the word ART in pink paint all over the Marc Jacobs store in Soho. The store’s staff cleaned it up, but not before snapping a photo of it and dubbing it Art by Art Jacobs. And then, in an awesome twist, Marc Jacobs put the photo on a tshirt and offered it for sale: $689 or $9 less if you want it signed by the “artist”. The Observer’s Foster Kamer has the story.

It’s a neat interactive sculpture in Times Square, special for Valentine’s Day.
Core77:
A BIG red heart pulses with glowing light in a grove of glass rods. A single person can activate the beating heart, but joining hands with others will make the heart beat even faster to create a brightly burning heart. 
Hosted by New York City’s Times Square Alliance.
Designed and in built in collaboration between Bjarke Ingels’ BIG, fabricators FLATCUT and media design firm Local Projects.
