Firstly, here’s the link to my current WIP of assessment two. As for what I’ll be discussing today, I’ve really tried to simplify my subject matter and ideas in order to articulate them clearly. I’ve used a few key questions as a guideline and am happy to hear feedback from those within the studio. … […]
In other music news, Alice Glass took to Twitter last night announcing the break-up of Crystal Castles. ‘Although this is the end of the band‘, she wrote, ‘I hope my fans will embrace me as a solo artist in the same way they have embraced Crystal Castles.’ Of course, Alice, but I still wasn’t over the […]
Just hours ago it was revealed that Morrissey has had ‘cancerous tissue‘ removed four times, talking about his illness in a Spanish interview via the El Mundo. In it’s translation, it was the first time Morrissey had talked about cancer, regardless of previous reports of his diminishing health and issues reported in news. Unafraid of […]
It took me 20 minutes of searching and a friendly Tumblr user to get invited to Ello, a new social network with a growing buzz around it’s exclusive behaviour. While I have no idea on where it is heading, I can tell you that it has been growing at a substantial rate, with individuals selling […]
Photographer and filmmaker Matthew Frost has teamed up with actress Kirsten Dunst to create a short film commenting on today’s selfie-obsessed culture. Bleached in golden rays and dreamy suburbia, Kirsten Dunst plays herself, meeting two selfie-obsessed individuals that could be loosely called fans.

I work with music in my part-time job so it’s always blaring while I do things, and since I still live at home, channelling out unwanted noise from my younger brothers is the only way. This isn’t so bad though, if anything, I’ve […]
Dreampop/R&B sweethearts The Harpoons teamed up with fellow Melbournian and musician Becky Sui Zhen to deliver a dreamy video for their official track Can We Work This Out. Full of gradients and glitch beats, the video is a sensitive sketch of the groups soul sound and aesthetic. The Harpoons are due to release their debut album […]
Being a student within RMIT, it’s compulsory to achieve 80 hours or more in a workplace attachment. The outcome and idea behind this prerequisite in Media is simple; more experience equates to more opportunities. A few weeks ago I found myself reading the email and the structure of the attachment guidelines. I skimmed over the […]
Craving the mid semester break so I can get back to drawing and meandering around the city. However, I won’t be able to look at my pencils and inks without thinking of them as technological tools. On an irrelevant mental note, I think I’ll rearrange my bedroom space and buy more plants. Here’s a little succulent […]
A little folksy, a whole lot of lo-fi. Michael Cera has humbly released a casual album via Bandcamp called True That. With a total of 18 tracks, the largely instrumental album will have you whirling about your bedroom in a pool of funky indie howls, piano bursts and sleepy acoustic chords. Listen to a few […]
