Stepping, Crushing, and Stomping


I know it’s a fetish for people to step on other people, but I don’t think it‘s very attractive when someone steps all over my lunch.

 

Sean Talley recently showed me some fetish videos on Youtube (nothing he is interested in personally) about specific types of shoes crushing specific types of food. The concept is so foreign to me that I instantly became interested and/or obsessed in the weird cultural and sculptural performance these videos possess. I think some of the videos near the bottom of the post run the line of parody but they all are amazing to me. Even the sound is so fantastic because of its low quality and simplicity.

 

 


FINALLY, REVENGE

Deyrollye; burned animals

I saw when this happened it was all over the NY Times over a year ago. But never got a chance to post about it. All the burned images of the taxidermy are really mysterious. The animals seem to be continually transfixed in some kind of purgatory between life and death multiple times.

Garance Doré on Boys


I was digging through her amazing blog a couple days ago and came upon a truly poetic moment she had on the male species. While joining her beau in Pitti, so he could take pictures of the male fashion, so she stated of her experience “When I got there, I found myself completely lost in an ocean of virility with no idea what to do with my camera.” Well, just read her blog entry “Garance oh Boys” her disorientation then reorientation through these men and back to her significant other is nothing less then romantic.

WFMU Night People


I cannot get enough of this early morning talk show with Dave and (S)andy’s clever antics and sometimes not so clever antics. They are completing the filler of my life right now. For the last three months i have been spelunking the archives. This “three-hour call-in show about the unexplained, jam packed into four hours” is definitely worth the hours in your life that you are currently not using.
