Her delicate paintings on flat white backgrounds look so natural but are truly morphed in nature. Although the surreal marriage of animals and plants into one species is beyond fantasy, there’s something so natural about […]

This city has undergone a complete transformation in the last couple of days. The trees have started to bloom and vibrancy has returned to the streets.

It’s the End of the World

“Now you can dock and plop!” Biggest WTF?! of the day. I saw J&R selling this thing in an ad for $75. It’s very real.

Missing Autolux?

Yeah, me too. I swear this whole move is making me all nostalgic and shit and I’m actually starting to freak myself out. What has it been, nearly three years since the release of Future Perfect? Three years, wow. Fortunately, the band is still alive and kicking strong, playing two shows […]
