The outstanding work of No Para Innita (formerly known as Jesucristina, Fer and Quilo) is a visual reflection of constant personality changes, abnormality, the rivalry between unity and duality, and his strong commitment to the ‘straight edge’ philosophy. This vegan artist is a guru of the local underground comic scene. His latest project and personification is ‘No Para Innita’ which involves music, visual performance and illustration. His work is the main feature of the ‘Mujeres Arriba’ (Women On Top) Expo taking place in Bogotá, Colombia, celebrating International Women’s Day.

The Take It Easy experience in Barcelona
Two months ago, a very special and unique place opened in Barcelona: TAKE IT EASY, an anti-stress space. Inspired by The Eagles song, Ramón Regada created a comfortable area in the district of L’Eixample in which people can unplug and take a short nap in hi-tech massage chairs. It is aimed at workers with only short time after lunch to take the famous siesta. And all for just five Euros. Regada asks each customer to write down a phrase or word after taking the nap and each week he selects one as a banner in the front window of the space. Read more

These colourful shining landscapes by the artist Kate Shaw are fascinating me: the structure is a chaotic disorder, like a puzzle, but you can’t put the pieces together. Perhaps it’s a warning that life doesn’t feel real anymore. Read more
Designer Carlo Muttoni has come up with a tongue-in-cheeks hypothetical device that harnesses farts to generate electrical power. In all seriousness, poop can probably be harnessed in the same way. Read more
Back in the day, New Zealand pop absurdists, Split Enz were the finest damn Australasian band around. This track, I Walk Away, off their final album — Spellbound — is their ultimate moment: a hefty dose of pure melodic majestry, wrapped around the aching lyrics and quirky arrangements of genius frontman, Neil Finn.
Itdrewitself had the honor of visiting with the legendary Ron English — an occasional Lost At E Minor contributor — at his home in Poughkeepsie, New York, last month, and had an amazing time rummaging through his studio, photographing endless amounts of paintings and sculptures. The guy is like a art machine. Read more
Some might argue that the team behind People of Walmart are elitist snobs poking fun at the working masses, but is there really an economic rationale behind an ‘I Hate Queers’ t-shirt? Read more
No wave is alive and well, if Brooklyn duo Talk Normal are any indication. Drummer Andrya Ambro keeps things cohesive with surprisingly precise percussion, occasionally banging on such things as an electric guitar and an old iron pipe rigged with contact mics, while guitarist Sarah Register coaxes some unnerving and discordant noises from her axe and array of pedals. The two take turns shouting abstract and absurdist lyrics with voices like hi-tech valkyries from a futurist nightmare.
