David Byrne Does Bike Racks, Too
Mr. Byrne's Everything That Happens... LP collab with Eno is rather great and all, but this one's about the legendary Head's other love (no, not that one or that one or that one). As you've probably seen if you live in NYC, the guy likes to bike. He also loves to park his bike. And he's proving it all with a series of bike racks of his design, strategically installed all over the city (shaped like a $ at Wall St., like a heel outside Bergdorf's, etc.). See the full collection and location info at NY Times' City Room blog. (To complete the relevant link set: this is what David hears and sees when he's riding a bike.)

I wish that David Byrne would write a book, because then he might do a book signing and I'd finally have the chance to meet him. Title: "This Must Be the Place: Art and Estrangement in Post-Punk New York".
