How Not To book series
|Most instructional books focus on the how to and not the how NOT to. Artist Aleksandra Mir has created an ongoing project compiling ‘lessons learned the hard way‘ submitted by the general public.
The advice will eventually be published as a series of books with different topics: cooking, romance, parenting, sports, etc. Submit your own ‘how not to’ — if it is published, you will receive a copy of the final book or you can pre-order one for £30.

Surreal sculptures by Ben Wheele
Honestly, writing about art (and music, for that matter) is kind of an awful task because good art speaks for itself. Such is the case with Ben Wheele’s surreal sculptures and videos.

Beach House are certainly different. The dream pop/indie rock duo from Baltimore create music bursting with atmospheric rhythms, pretty organs and poignant lyrics. I’m loving Norway, the twosome’s debut single from their upcoming album, Teen Dream. If the vocals sound familiar, that’s because lead singer Victoria Legrand shared backing vocals on Grizzly Bear’s Two Weeks. Now how’s that for trivia?
