WEIRD HERO: JONATHAN COULTON

Weird kids have a way of becoming grown-ups who figure out how to bypass a music industry that doesn’t know what to make of the geek genre they’re inventing. This is important, because the world needs more songs written from the point of view of passive-aggressive robots or highly persuasive zombies named Bob. Songs like Jonathan Coulton’s. Which is all to say, we think Jonathan’s a shining example of why #WEIRDWINS and is someone who should unearth a ParaNorman zombie.

Paranorman by Dave Perillo

“This is a poster I did through Mondo for Laika Films upcoming movie “ParaNorman” that will be released in theaters August 17th. Myself, along with some other great artists, were commissioned to make these posters that are now being used as a viral marketing campaign. They are being hung up in cities across the US, and if you see one you can just take it!”

WEIRD HERO: JOHN STRUAN

If it weren’t for weird kids, no one would ever grow up to be like John Struan-digital curator of amazing pieces of art that also happen to be toys, and person who inspires us to see what “playthings” can become when your imagination doesn’t get hung up on what’s deemed normal. Which is all to say, we think John’s a shining example of why #WEIRDWINS and is someone who should unearth a ParaNorman zombie.
