Despite their tranquility and sparseness, there is an epic struggle between nature, death, religion, and the human need for a sense of permanence in French-Canadian photographer Annie-Eve Dumontier’s images. Read more
Jaimie Zollars probably paints some of the most ridiculously detailed children’s books I’ve ever seen. Yet, somehow she manages to give it all a the same perfect, slightly creepy atmosphere that draws you in without overwhelming you. The Slidy Diner is my favorite. Read more
Amanda Rynda brings her clients’ fantasies to life with her wedding photography. If you’re fed up with the dreamy, sugary, corny pictures of smiley couples holding hands at the park, how about throwing a zombie into the mix?
Says Van She bassist and vocalist Matt Van Schie about the Bush Tetras track — Too Many Creeps — from 1982: ‘I LOOOVE this tune. It opens with a perfect snare roll, and then the counter bass and guitar rhythms make it so cool. The lyrics are even more valid today. They’re one of my favourite bands of all time, and so many people try to do what they did for real. What a time! I wish I was born back then in New York, hanging out with these kids. Ahhhh!!’

A Chicken Growing Up! is a great blog on which science illustrator Mieke Roth posts one ink drawing a week of a chicken as it matures. Read more
Channeling Justin Timberlake and Alan Vega, or both or neither, Spanish Dancer is on his own axis, spinning to the BPM of a lost drum. At one point, between moving back and forth between Providence, Rhode Island and Miami, Florida, he discovered punk and his uncle bought him a ratty 50 dollar Cruise VMI guitar to mess around with. Subsequently, Spanish Dancer material is a little snarky, self-aware, and fun, while still retaining all the complex spastic freakout moments of his prior band, A Trillion Barnacle Lapse. His debut album, Burned Up, Bred High, is out now and we have the lead single, The Hustler [listen below], available for free download via the Music Download section of the Lost At E Minor site.
