-Chuck Palahniuk, "Invisible Monsters," 1999

Ever feel that way?

I’m genuinely amazed at the quality and effort that went into the 400+ submissions to the remix challenge over on hitRECord — where members of Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s creative community warped two images from his upcoming BlackBook photo shoot in whatever way they fancied. And they only had three days to do it! (The above from Lawrie Brewster is one of many, many personal favorites.) We’ll run a few selections alongside that story in our October issue, but I could put out a whole issue of these.
