Röyksopp’s This Must Be It video
For the video for their latest single, This Must Be It, Norwegian uber-producers Röyksopp ditched the futuristic stylings and went back to their … ah … roots. Or at least, the roots of a motley collection of tribal dancers. Interesting.

I couldn’t care less about Royksopp, and I have a knee-jerk aversion to Burning Man, but this video pretty much encapsulates what I want my life to be like in the future.
It’s soothing and sumptuous. It’s Zebra by Beach House. The harmonious opening track of Teen Dream is lovely and ridden with reverb. I don’t care if the album was leaked early. These songs will endure the test of time, just like their self-titled album has.

London-based Brian McKenzie’s prints, paintings, and clay sculptures all have a great, almost retro spookiness about them. They look like illustrations for German cautionary fairy tales. Read more
I wasn’t aware of who Emilio Pucci was until my work was compared to his for the hundredth time. I’m happy to have anyone make that connection. I’m not a high fashion person. I keep to the basics and feel alright about it. The introduction to his work was mind blowing for me. Not only for the rich colors and patterns, but how those things worked with the human form. It was an interesting revelation, and one that has sparked more interest for me to explore fashion as a medium for art.
