Brooke Shaden
|The work of American fine art photographer Brooke Shaden is, as she says, a way to create new worlds where the impossible becomes possible. Floating women, fairy tales, transparent cloths, dreams, textures, all freeze a moment that never seems to end.

The Cosmonaut Museum in Moscow
I’ve just came back from a trip to Moscow and I was amazed by The Cosmonaut Museum. It was built in 1964 to commemorate the launch of Sputnik twenty years earlier and to celebrate the achievements of USSR. Read more
Animated video for French band Louise Attaque
Louis Clichy (animator on Wall-e, Up and Ratatouille) directed this beautiful animation for the French band, Louise Attaque. It’s very interesting to see how he links one scene to another to tell us the story. It feels like they belong together, the music and the video: both rough, dirty and rhythmic.

Aussie wunderkid photographer, Nirrimi, is now represented by Look Management and is well on the way to becoming a true superstar in the field. I particularly love the muted colours in her work and the subtle sense of repressed energy which permeates her portrait photography. Read more
Yann Gross’ photos of tattooed bikers, cowboys, drag races, and Confederate-flag-adorned trailer homes are unnerving documents of the American experience. But his subjects aren’t American, they’re residents of the Rhone Valley in Gross’ native Switzerland. Judging from his photos, Europeans don’t necessarily look down their noses at the U S of A. Some of them actually celebrate it, blemishes and all.

Breakbeat duo, Evil Nine’s new album, They Live!, is one of the standout releases of the year. They Live! is powerful second album after 2005′s, You Can Be Special Too, its gruesome lyrics paying homage to all those misunderstood zombies out there. The duo — Automatom and Pardytron — compiled a Secret Playlist for us, writing about their eight favourite songs right now. Their first selection? Why, Toto’s Africa, of course [listen below]: ‘The epitome of smooth music, words can’t express how much this song rules! When the synths come in and the drums echo in the night, I’[m immediately transported back to my youth. Some people might say this is a guilty pleasure, but I don’t feel no guilt. I just stick it on and bask in their mellow might’. Read the rest of the Evil Nine Secret Playlist.

One of the most dynamic new acts to burst into our eardrums in years, Brooklyn’s Vivian Girls have just released their debut self-titled album, which combines Phil Spector-ish Wall Of Sound harmonies with fuzzy melodies, as reflected on this track, Where Do You Run To.
