Tiny Art Director: A Toddler and Her Vision

She has been giving him briefs since she was two-and-a-half years old, and she’s a tough and demanding critic. Apart from the extremely funny blog, The Tiny Art Director, there is now an equally impressive book to show for their collaboration. The charming Tiny Art Director: A Toddler and Her Vision is available through Chronicle Books.

Working out of Portland, Robbie Augspurger got his first camera for his twelfth birthday, held at Showbiz Pizza Place, where there were animatronic animals wearing suits and playing in a band.

As someone who thinks more about traveling than actually gets to do it [damn, it should really be the other way around], it was good to come across the latest batch of Wallpaper* city guides the other day. Living vicariously through the pages of the Berlin edition at least made my next choice of holiday destination that much easier. Read more

These very sweet folks from Seattle supported Broken Social Scene on our last American dates of the Spirit IF tour. Although they haven’t quite hit their stride as a live outfit, the tunes from songwriter Grant Olsen have some very lovely moments that fall somewhere between Velvet Underground and The Everly Brothers.
