a visual collective outlet of inspiration
a little boring, but the music and the melancholia of the image and lyrics (imagine in your head) makes it worth while. not bad for a still shoot. by dd
Damien Florébert Cuypers
so nice to see illustration coming back these days. Damien Florebert is doing those super nice street snaps around the fashion shows. also love the frieze art fair portraits previously published in nowness (here jeffrey and john). by pp.

last time i was in paris, i saw this collection from hermes called petit h. it is basically hermes trying to use their scraps pieces of leather or silk. some are weird and useless, and some are great, but everything is fun. by pp.

thoughts of a dry brain in a dry season
T. S. Eliot – Gerontion by poetictouch
an audio of thomas stearns eliot reading his 1920 piece gerontion. the poem represents the view of a gerontic or elderly man and his Modernist views on religion and sexuality, amongst other topics. although the line, “thoughts of a dry brain in a dry season” is a metaphor for age, I thought it would be rather fitting for this peculiar new york weather we’ve been having. plus, I cannot think of a more satisfying way to hear eliot read than by the genius himself.

Enter the Void: Gaspar Noé 2009
was not a fan of irreversible, i found it obnoxious and sensationalist. however, i just met nathan brown, the lead actor in the film, and now i have to give this a shot. the trailer seems worthy of a chance but knowing gaspar, there will be surprises indeed… by uh

gorgeous days
at least it’s a gorgeous day in new york, and even though we don’t have psychedelic, rugged nature staring us in the face, it still makes you appreciate that we get to enjoy a day like today. are we a little bit deist? at least a smidgen? by kl

KIMBERLY®
i wish i could find out something about this kimberly brand. nada. the only thing i know is that they were one of the many advertisers (especially compared to today) during the 60’s-70’s using illustration. but wait, isn’t that jean shrimpton in the middle? maybe that unsuspecting shoot by david bailey helped establish this new grammar of seeing, and eased a little more creative storytelling in the more personally identifiable and coy medium of photography that we all love so much. by kl
