Hi.
Welcome to my blog. I document my adventures in travel, style, and food. Hope you have a nice stay!
Welcome to my blog. I document my adventures in travel, style, and food. Hope you have a nice stay!
In celebration of the new Opening Ceremony capsule collection by Chloë Sevigny (see above and see more below), we get a personal tour inside Chlöe's closet, where she keeps her original bunny ears from Gummo, the skteches Alber Elbaz made for her when he was with Yves Saint Laurent ... you know: the regular junk you keep shelved away somewhere.
I've been spending a lot of time writing a screenplay these last couple of days (not coming in a theatre near you, it's a corporate thing) on level extra hard 'cuz I gots to make it all happen without dialogue and goddamn I wish I had The Roots to back my storylines up. Questlove and his band of brothers are releasing a 'concept album' (ugh.. save it for the Coldplay press release) and to tease the world a lil' bit, they have been putting out parts of a black and white short film accompanying the 'Undun' tracks each Tuesday. There's three of them out already. Watch them after the jump. So many quotable bars and bone-chilling moments to cherish... Can't wait to hear (and see) the whole thing.
Louis CK is a hero in my household. His new comedyshow will be aired exclusively on his website, starting December 10th. This is ten minutes of his interview on Conan this weekend: enough time to embarass himself with George Bush and tackle trend culture, racism and the second coming on Twitter.
“Let everything happen to you. Beauty and terror. Just keep going. No feeling is final.” -Rainer Maria RilkeLet's start the day with some heart-stopping beauty and terror by this guy (who looks like this when posing naked with a bird on his head). Contains snippets from Lost Highway, the Warszaw track by David Bowie that inspired Ian Curtis to start Joy Division (and still kicks major witch house ass today), Brian Eno, Amadou & Mariam and one of my current favourites: Obsessions (oOoOO Remix) by Marina & the Diamonds.
Radio Soulwax is releasing it's New Beat app mix tomorrow, but NME has the exclusive mix up already. I wish you could see D's dance moves when the first beat kicked in seconds ago. More Radio Soulwax HERE.
Rihanna turns to Melina (see: S&M) to direct her new video for "I Found Love in a Hopeless PLace', who turns in a sort of Sid & Nancy at the council estate love story, including pill popping, shoplifting, ass tattoo / smacking sessions and Ri Ri throwing up purple ribbons in the street. I can't believe I'm posting anything by Calvin Harris, but there you go: this is as pleasurable as guilty pleasures get.
It's late. I've been up since 5.30 this morning smashing burning bricks with my bare hands and wowing the crowds with my power-riffs. You know. Metaphorically. Not like Matt Sikorski, who's been doing it for real.
If you were wondering if hiphop still has the power to make parents frown: I'm a parent and I definitely frowned a lot watching this.
A tribute to the likes of Ridley Scott and Syd Mead from hipster favourites Com Truise.When you're done playing the sci-fi reference quiz (Blade Runner, Tron, Neuromancer ...), why not indulge in some of the originals, so plentiful in the ever-abundant bosom of the interweb.
