The new iPhone was finally released today to a chorus of cheers from the patient Apple fans around the world.

Queues formed outside stores throughout the uk in the early hours (or yesterday in the case of Apples flagship uk store in Regent street), and I’m afraid to say that I was in one of them.. Were you?

More info and pics after the jump…

Bit of an unusual subject matter by Amir Zaki but what amazing photos this series of lifeguard towers make. Typology photography at its best… DOPE!

Couple more after the jump.

I don’t intend to spread OWTIC into the sphere of food blogging but like most normal people I love my food and occasionally something comes along that has to be posted about. My good pal Iggy put me on to this, the Peckham Meatwagon, no not a truck full of ghetto booty but a pop-up burger van selling the best goddamn burger this side of the pond! Owner Yianni Papoutsis travelled the states in search of great street food and inspired by his travels now runs the Meatwagon in his spare time. Follow him on twitter to find out when it’s next open and make the pilgrimage to Peckham. More info on Will Eat For Money.

Whilst I’m on the subject I had lunch at Koya noodle bar on frith street yesterday, open since mid-April it specialises in udon-ya noodles (the thick ones), the food is simple but delicious and the stylings all 45rpm. 8.50 a dish and probably the most authentic japanese noodles in central London, 4 out of 5 stars on timeout, well worth a visit.

Love this video for Breakbot – a self-proclaimed, awesome, sexy Frenchman signed to Ed Banger Records. The video was brilliantly directed and put together by Irina Dakava and consists of around 2000 individual watercolor paintings, all of which must of taken fucking ages… pretty impressive stuff. Check some images after the jump.

Everyone needs a good world cup chart. I’ve seen a lot of crap, over-designed ones knocking about but this one designed by Benjamin Prescott is spot on. Simple to follow, typographically banging and beautifully designed. Buy yours here!

We’ve posted about something similar to this before but it doesn’t make this any less amazing. The juxtaposition of the old decrepit castle and the contemporary visual projection is what makes this fucking cool. I love the shots in which you can see the whole town underneath the insanely animated castle. Imagine how trippy this would be had you just been randomly walking past.

This architectural mapping projection from the Branchage Film Festival was done by London Seeper.

Nice little idea by Bas van de Poel and Daan van Dam, a couple of advertising students based in Amsterdam. Unfortunately they only come as Dutch replica shirts so a pub full of beer-bellied Wayne Rooney’s will have to wait for now!!

Cafe OTO in Dalston has some really interesting (and pretty out there) things happening. They’re putting on truly leftfield music almost seven nights a week. It’s reassuring to know that places like this can still exist. A few people have told me about this event on Thursday. The flyer explains it all – plus it looks great.

Totally late on this one but saw it on PTLDME the other day and loved it, to quote; “It captures the feeling of summer break in the 90′s; the days of near- sighted wanderlust and learning how to play Nirvana songs on the guitar.” Sophmore are a New York based label, check their shit here.

The Sanderson hotels, ‘Sanderson predicts’ series started last night with a performance from I Blame Coco. I hadn’t paid Coco much attention, despite all the exposure, so had few expectations. Playing acoustically amongst the foliage in the Sanderson courtyard she sounded really good, definitely her father’s daughter, possessing that husky ska-pop vocal that is so reminiscent of him. As the magazine covers she’s graced claim; she is fucking cool, totally grunge and waifish, beautiful in an interesting way. It’s a fair (or easy) prediction to say she’s gonna be MASSIVE because obviously she is. ‘Sanderson Predicts’ continues with Othello Woolf on June 17th.
