Though it’s hot and sticky in Delhi, people were warmly dressed in their woolen clothes when I was there last December. Indian fashion is notoriously bright and colorful. As I discovered, their fuzzy knits are no exception. If you’re a Westerner traveling in India, it’s quite common for men, women, children and even entire families to approach you for a photo. At first, it’s a little awkward, but you get used to it. Read more
I wonder if Japanese people are fed with some special and blue magic berries because there are so many amazing artists there. Taro’s art journal is full of fluid, sophisticated, watercolor pieces that make me jealous and wondering about blue magic berries. Read more
Vague and painterly, the work of Brooklyn artist Ryan Rozowski is populated with anonymous crowds and objects that lead you to feel as if you might be eavesdropping, albeit from a good way back. It’s like peering through the tiniest crack in the wall. Read more
The Deal sisters have dropped off the indie-rock radar of late, but this clip of them covering Hank Williams’ I Can’t Help It reminds us why we all loved them so much back in the day. Incidentally, the Breeders are set to release their new album, Mountain Battles, in April.

If you ever happen to find yourself riding across the mid-west on horseback with an iPod jangling about in your holster, be sure to let Calexico soundtrack the experience. They’re cleverly fusing a range of genres, mixing some good old country with US indie, a bit of jazz and even, in 2003’s Feast of Wire, some smatterings of electronica. Lead singer Joey Burns gives a healthy amount of cowboy twang and the soaring orchestral background and sweet country guitar licks add a real atmosphere to the music.
Listen to the Calexico song, Convict Pool.
