CLICK HERE TO GET INTO INFINITY

dublab & Creative Commons invite you to explore the wide possibilities of forever! INTO INFINITY is an art and music exhibition built on audio loops and visual circles. These elements are open to in-the-moment manipulation and available for remixing and resubmission. INTO INFINITY is a creative movement that sends inspired echoes into the future. Stay tuned for live exhibition dates and website developments.

“EYE”
We distributed blank, white 12" paper circles to our wide community of inspired artists to fill with vibrant visions. These infinite loops have amazing potential to shine and blow minds.

“EAR”
We asked a diverse spectrum of music-minded friends to contribute 8-second sound loops with any ambience, tonality or texture they desired. These loops expand in open ears.

dublab’s DREAM SCENE brings into being the magic that resides in creative minds. We asked bright art stars to share their ultimate music lineups. There was one guideline (but really no rules): the super shows should have never actually happened. Our dreamers rose to the occasion creating posters, flyers, ticket stubs, concert reviews, and t-shirts reflecting their imaginary happenings. Dive into the DREAM SCENE and enjoy an elevated experience of far out music fantasy!

If these images turn you on, we urge you to join the DREAM SCENE. To submit your fantasy music creation contact: info@dublab.com

CLICK HERE TO SEE THE UP OUR SLEEVE GALLERY

What is UP OUR SLEEVE? Music memories, paper, paint, ink, ribbons, paste, plastic, photos, metal, vinyl, trains, tape, mannequin heads, and magic. Out of wartime and low cash woes came inspiration for united creativity. We distributed hundreds of blank 12″ record sleeves to our artistic friends who passed them onto their pals and on and on. UP OUR SLEEVE reflects the dublab community. We are rooted in Los Angeles while branching worldwide.

dublab is in love with vinyl and the deep culture that surrounds it. Sadly, album art has been shrinking: 12″ > 5″ > invisible MP3′s. UP OUR SLEEVE is an opportunity to expand again. Our sleeves are big. A square foot of fun with a hole tossed in the middle. A blank 12″ cover is an exciting medium. It’s instantly recognizable and infinitely adjustable.

Most often album covers are made to match existing music. UP OUR SLEEVE flips this paradigm. The pieces are influenced by music genres and albums while existing free of specific attachment. This is open artistic expression. Who knows, someday songs might be sung for these covers.

UP OUR SLEEVE: the dublab covers project is a fundraiser. Each artist donated their one of a kind creation. The sleeves will be auctioned off online to support dublab’s positive music transmissions. Keep your eyes on upoursleeve.org for auction dates.

UP OUR SLEEVE is an exploration of deep music imagery. We hope you dig it.

CLICK HERE TO SEE THE PATCHWORK GALLERY

We gathered our artistic pals for a super sewing party and created a far out freak flag.

Each contributor was asked to flip ten square inches of found fabric. They painted, printed, stiched, stapled, crimped, and cut fibers into new forms. With a little luck and sturdy thread we merged single squares into stunning modular strips.

PATCHWORK is a celebration of bold craftiness. Our thimble thumbed collective pushed dimensions of cloth creation. We hope you enjoy the outcome.
