I Am A Sex Addict: documentary by Caveh Zahedi
by I just watched this documentary written by, and starring, Caveh Zahedi. It won the Gotham Award for Best Film Not Playing at a Theater Near You. The movie came out in 2006, but I still think it’s worth talking about now. I really like how Zahedi puts himself out there in gruesome high-def reality, showcasing his flaws and sexual hangups for anyone who chooses to listen.
Zahedi plays himself as he suffers from an endless need to have sexual encounters with prostitutes. The movie details this addiction and the subsequent turmoil created because of it in his intimate relationships. This is a really gripping showcase of humanity, where honesty is not always the best policy.

Jessica Serran’s whispy, whimsical drawings and paintings combine text and poetry with strange, bulbous, hallucinatory shapes and figures. Her doodle-like work looks deceptively crude, but the subtly expressive images she makes reveal a deliberate hand that reserves control for a foreshortened face or a delicately shaded gradient.

Wow! So whilst Australia is quickly becoming known for its Ed Banger-styled modular stream of music, there is a little known Brisbane artist called Yeo Choong who is just insanely talented. His music is full of summer fun and Kanye West-Phoenix influences. Take my word on it, this is going to be Australia’s next answer to Sam Sparro, Mika or even Jamie Lidel, and he is only 21 years-old.

It also fits your laptops. Oh, and the exterior is made from 100% water-resistant TPE. Fun!
