Los Angeles noise trio Autolux new album finally is going to see daylight ,
" Transit Transit " follows " Future Perfect " and will be released by Atp Recordings and Tbd Records.
A second album is always tricky business and i'm keeping my fingers crossed for them.
"Future Perfect" is among my favorite albums , a sonic relic , great drumming by Clara Azar , brilliant vibrant distorted bass and melancholic strident loud guitars. Would please very much any Sonic Youth fan.

After 3 and a half years of single battle series locally in over 20 countries, we have decided to try something different and potentially more exciting for 2010... Introducing the Secret Wars EURO LEAGUE!



Secret Wars began back in 2006, it was small, and intimate yet had the potential to be so much more. Years of hard work, dedication and a strong following has meant Secret Wars has pushed the boundaries and raised the bar for artists and promoters alike. It’s all culminated to this, present day, present time, 17 European locations…The Secret Wars Euro League has finally arrived! Boasting a range of cities including London, Lisbon, Berlin, Copenhagen, Dublin, Amsterdam and many more proves that there really isn’t a stage big enough for the groundbreaking and award-winning event.

Watch | Pantha Du Prince - Stick to My Side



Having grown up on the West Coast most of my life and coming from a family of uber ‘antique’ collectors and artists, my eclectic upbringing was filled with a wide range of ’Pop’ ephemera. Many of those inspirations now show up in my work and stem from the backdrop of my childhood.
The Subject of my paintings is a world of side-show icons, deviant Animalia, and ‘masked’ glorified cartoon alter egos. I utilize these icons and character cultures as antithetical counterparts to what we are lead to believe as being innocent and socially acceptable. Although misfits on the surface, a sense of relation is understood, secret from the public - we are all misfits; hiding behind animated personas, odd and beautifully unusual. Who is it that we relate to? The lonely little boy hiding in a bear suite, the evil lustful pool-hall wolf, the sexualized little girl who secretly wants more. The environment and its limited population are meant to conjure these questions, the viewers are confronted with finding their own answers. Brandt Peters

Co-written and directed by Duncan Jones (son of David Bowie) Moon is more quiet introspection than 2001: A Space Odyssey acid trip or Event Horizon deep-space psycho horror. Rockwell delivers an impressive performance as both Sam Bells, and the straightforward no-twists, no-frills plot is as simple, effective, and refreshing as the miniatures used for the exterior establishing shots.

CLOUD, A Digital Sculpture For British Airways Terminal 5
Troika was commissioned by Artwise Curators to create a signature piece for the entrance of the new British Airways luxury lounges in Heathrow Terminal 5.

In response, we created 'Cloud', a five meter long digital sculpture whose surface is covered with 4638 flip-dots that can be individually addressed by a computer to animate the entire skin of the sculpture. Flip-dots were conventionally used in the 70s and 80s to create signs in train-stations and airports. By audibly flipping between black and silver, the flip-dots create mesmerizing waves as they chase across the surface of ‘Cloud’. Reflecting its surrounding colours, the mechanical mass is transformed into an organic form that appears to come alive, shimmering and flirting with the onlookers that pass by. Troika

Official music video for the song ‘Would You?’ by Holly Throsby, with guest vocals by Bonnie 'Prince' Billy. The song revolves around a simple question: “Would you want somebody new?”. The clip drifts slowly in and out of reality - lights pass and bodies fall, on a slow, dark night, on the way home in the car.
