‘The Lost Mystical’ is a collection of all the amazing b-roll footage from Mutiny’s amazing Let’s Get Mystical. With Yeasayer for a soundtrack, Joe Simon’s stunning HD mixed with Super 8 footage shines through even in the clips that never made the feature.

It doesn’t get much more sleek and chic than the -5° Supperclub in Pattaya, Thailand, where guests enjoy food and drinks while they lounge on beds of pure white in a room of ever changing colours. If the Supperclub isn’t cool enough for you, there’s also the -5° Icebar which is kept at minus 5 degrees and drinks are served in glasses made of ice.

For me the test of a great artist is growth. I mean I won’t discredit one hit wonders, even one album wonders or even visual artists with just a few great pieces of work, HOWEVER there is a supreme league of artists who strive to make their latest work better than their last, THEN there is an even higher league of people who do this successfully. Sanna Annuka is one of those artists. I remember when I first saw her work, it was the Keane’s album cover, at university and it blew my mind. Her latest work, like the screen-print above, I think, is even miles better! Amazing development. One of the best things I have seen in a long long while. Genuinely impressed.

Coloring one of the Indie Rock Coloring books and auctioning it for Haiti was actually my wife’s idea! When we heard about the earthquake in haiti it really moved us and we started coming up with ideas between us of how we could do our bit. I have put lots of time and effort into the coloring. It has been rewarding to finally color one of my books, and it felt even better to do it for a great reason. I’m sure you agree that this disaster in Haiti has been eye opening and truly heartbreaking. It is such an awful tragedy. I really encourage you to make a bid on this coloring book, and if you don’t win I hope you will donate to the cause anyway.

Update: Auction has ended with Andy raising US $152.00!

Kevin Smith, like him or loath him there’s no denying the guy has had an impact on filmmaking as sizable as the gut he’s always quick to draw attention to. From Clerks to the up-coming Cop Out, the indie director has had a career of varied success. Over the years, he may have lost favor with some critics, but despite all his up’s and down’s he has managed to hold on to a diehard troupe of fans who are all eager for anything Smith-related.
Flocking to his numerous Evening With performances and snapping up as many signed View Askew products as they can get their hands on, the fans have become his rock. Never one to shy away from publicity or the opportunities presented by the internet, when Kevin Smith announced that he was to start producing a podcast with producer and long time friend Scott Mosier, he took one more step forward in interacting with his fans.
Released weekly, (with a few exceptions) Smodcast, a mish-mash of Smith, Mosier and . . . well you’re not that stupid, began in February 2007 and is still going strong today. Discussing everything from his personal life to his experiences with some of Hollywood’s biggest stars, Smodcast does something interesting and unique.
It breaks down the barrier between fan and director, giving you a glimpse behind the scenes of not only his day-to-day life but the movie industry of which he is a part of. The processes, the decisions from big business suits – Smith’s frank explanations of the various situations he’s found himself in over the years are delivered in the foul mouthed conversational style which fans of his movies have come to love.
Smith has never been the type to shy away from talking about himself, and at times Smodcast feels like Smith’s weekly therapy session, however Scott Mosier forms the perfect co-host grounding the director with his low key witticisms. Mosier is the brains of Smodcast – the cultured traveler to Smith’s self-confessed New Jersey-ite. Just don’t ask them anything about Helen Keller.
As with any Smith production there’s a fair amount of crude jokes and detailed descriptions of all manner of hypothetical scenarios that always tend to lean towards the sexually explicit and are always hilarious. Nothing is sacred and Smith rarely holds back.
It has inspired Smod-art – hilarious paintings based on various episodes and is one of the top rated free podcasts currently available. Whether you’re a fan of Kevin Smith’s work or not, Smodcast is an interesting look at the man and the business he’s in. With equally hilarious co-hosts making the occasional visit and with it being free, you really have no excuse. So go shoot the shit with Scott and Mosier.

Or listen to Scott and Kevin read live exerts from the Smodcast book, reciting each others lines talking about an unusual form of heroism.

In conversation with one of my friends, the topic of blogs came up, one in particular piqued both of our interests and that was ‘kiss and tell’ blogs.  They are a guilty pleasure, like a McDonalds on a hangover.  Secretly delighting in the sexual misfortune of others, plus it makes us lol, rofl, rofl-copter, you get what I am saying. Here are four of the most notable, in no particular order, ranging from pornographic detail to relationship based woes, I present them for your delectation. (Photo by Matt Irwin)

I’m not big on my American stand-up. I tend to find it a series of ever increasing loud noises full of sound bites and a general lack of lateral thinking or irreverence. Massive sweeping statement, I know, wanna fight about it? I just had a listen to Aziz Ansari’s new album(is it classed as an album when just comedy??). You may have seen him in Funny People and some other U.S stuff I don’t know about. He’s in the Seth Rogen/Judd Apatow crowd …so you probably get the picture. Basically what I am trying to get across is that this guy seems a cut above the rest, he definitley has that brash American style, yet his delivery is bang on. Check the Kanye material near the end, it is frikin priceless. Spotify

Many of you may already be familiar with the bittersweet documentary The Devil and Daniel Johnston, but if you’re yet to experience it, now is as good a time as any. Released in 2006 and filmed by indie documentary filmmaker Jeff Feuerzeig, it’s the story of haunted genius. Growing up, the California born Daniel Johnston was full of artistic talent but plagued by a series of mental health problems.
From the brief highs of his professional career to the profound lows of his personal life, we see Johnston as a tortured soul. Musician and artist, in his prime he was revered by bands like Nirvana and Pearl Jam and yet oblivious. Fuelled by an unrequited love, when he released his creative energy he in turn cleansed his demons and the young man full of promise could be glimpsed once more. However the calm was not always long lasting. By combining home movie footage (of which there was plenty) with candid interviews of friends and family, Feuerzeig chronicles Johnston’s unusual life. The result is a tale of a man at war with himself and his own mind, touching, heartbreaking and at times funny, it’s guaranteed to stay with you.
Thankfully, since the documentaries release in 2006, Daniel’s mental health has improved and he continues to play music and tour. In fact he’ll be in the UK later this year.

French Designer Georgia Hardinge launches her AW 2010 Ready to Wear Collection with the short film, “Cage”. Screening at her exhibition at Somerset House this Feb, be prepared to see her structured designs come to life on Romanian born model Alina Zaharia. Conceptualizing for her film I took inspiration from her stiff structured pieces and highly creative embroidery. Hardinge exaggerates the female form with exposed boning and thick shapely embroidery, taking unconventional shapes and transforming them into truly ready to wear pieces.

Who ever said pleasure wasn’t functional? I have had to find some interior inspiration recently for a few projects I have been working on. I came across this blog which is filled with beautiful clean living spaces. It makes my London flat seem somewhat dreary in comparison! It came as no surprise that Emma comes from Sweden …how do they always get it so right?
