We reported two years ago, when the first Cultural Engagement Index was released, how psyched we were that it revealed Philly to be a vibrant, creative, and culturally engaged city. Now 2010’s CEI is out and oh boy, we did great. Overall, there was an 11% increase is cultural engagement, with 8 of 9 categories [...]

The Daily Beast has a story up about Kia Grasty, a woman who makes $140,000 a year (HOLY SHIT!) cleaning up after Penn students. She works for the parents of privileged kids and cleans up after them, which kinda bugs us, but you cannot slight this woman in any way. Grasty is working hard and [...]

Remember whenRocky got yarnbombed? Well, now The Old Grey Lady is reporting on the trend, which means it’s real news, right? (Or that the trend is officially over.) Can I have some coffee? All of this yawnbombing is making me sleepy and itchy.

MOOMBAHTON by T&ARecords What is Moombahton? If you haven’t heard of it yet, soon you will. It has gone from being a weird experiment — a record played at the wrong speed by the right DJ — to a global movement of Latin electronic dance music that has piqued the interest of the BBC and [...]

Even Wilson Goode, Jr. Lucky you, Mike. [PhillyElectionResults] >>> But at least there are some LULZ for us regular [...]

A tornado — yes, it was most probably a friggin’ tornado — smashed into the Beer Hut beer distributor near Bustleton Avenue and Red Lion Road in the Norfeast, causing the building to collapse. We like to think it was God’s way of saying, “Yes, I fully intend on deading each and every last one [...]

· Was it because you believe that Michael Nutter is not black and you’re part of some fucked-up reverse-birther movement? · If the answer to the above is “yes,” and you happen to be African-American, don’t you realize that you just kind of gave every white asshole racist in the world some straight-up bullshit ammo [...]

On one hand, we are sad to see Chinatown’s most beloved WTF store go, but on the other, I dunno, we are still sad to see Chinatown’s most beloved WTF store go. Hopefully, someone will buy it and make it a giant Han Dynasty where you will never have to wait for a table.

When we first heard about the PhillyHistory Augmented Reality app, we were pretty excited. Well, now, not only has the app been released, but so has Azavea’s research on the applicability and technology of AR technology. While we are still excited about the app, the only screenshots we could find do not quite live up [...]

And Philadelphia Orchestra cellist/chairman of the Members’ Committee John Koen is right: They kinda do. In a long-overdue broadside op-ed that finally articulates how the musicians feel about the Orchestra’s bankruptcy protection filing, Koen puts a fine point on it: While they’ve been doing consistently great work in the last few years (if not to [...]

DAYS by Steve Powers from Georgia on Vimeo.
