Davis Ayer is a photographer based in Austin Texas whose Tumblr grabbed my attention. The saturated colours, and soft textures of hair and flowers make for very pretty images. I especially love his Politives and his use of hair flicks and double exposures to create a sense of movement. Read more

Five bells on wheeled structures placed in a fountain make the musical sculpture, Wet Quintet. Years back when I met the artist, Dan Sternof Beyer, he was into tracing around street-side shadows with pavement chalk. This interactive piece is a result of his continued exploration of public art. Watch the reactions as people discover and activate the bells.

I began this project with the somewhat creepy idea to photograph the people I meet during my travels – whilst they were asleep. Luckily, on waking, most people are simply bemused as I explain why I’ve photographed them unawares. The result is an ongoing series of sleeping portraits and personal stories called People I’ve Slept With. Read more

I love to listen to storytelling, especially when sound is used creatively to illustrate a narrative. A new source of cleverly told tales, both true and fictional, is Paper Radio, an Australian based audio journal. Launched this year, the content already on the site is well-produced and engaging listening. You can listen on the website or subscribe to the podcast.

Yat-Kha are a stunning Tuvan band that combines throatsinging and traditional folk music with straight-up rock. Their album ReCovers is an awesome collection of covers of songs by Led Zeppelin, Joy Division, and Motörhead among many others, reflecting their general approach to music on the rest of their impressive catalog. Despite the modern elements, the Moscow-based group still conjures the vast steppes and endless skies of the small Russian republic in southern Siberia.

When the pusher is activated, the dial springs to life in 3D, with an LED light and afterglow effect.
