Revolution over at EvokeONE

Fascinating virtual art exhibition loosely based around the theme of revolution (there are many others including Fable, Calligraphy, Muse, etc) featuring digital design art, music and photography - really, really high quality stuff. Love the music too, unexpectedly! I’ll be returning frequently to Evokeone.com if they can keep this up.

Mystery Jets
So in a previous post I prop’d a collection of glitchy electronica,breaks, IDM and D&B - time now for something a lot softer. Way back in the day, one of my best friends at school was a guy name Kai Fish. We’ve gone our separate ways, but it warms my heart to see him hitting success with his band, The Mystery Jets. They’ve already played huge festivals and built a massive following, and with Stereogum announcing that they’re eagerly awaiting the new album, well… 2008 could be even bigger. I really encourage you to have a listen to their latest song, Flakes - a loving nod to Jeff Buckley’s amazing, if brief, contribution to music.

That’s some good photo, dude
Check out the World Press Photo of the Year gallery - some amazing stuff in there - not just single shots  but portfolios, too - so like a music album, you get context and development of themes that you don’t get with singles. Helps get the message across, adds interest and meaning. The winning photo: War, death and suffering seem to feature fairly prominently. Is it because it elicits stronger emotion from the viewer (or the judges of this contest) than photos of other stuff would? Is suffering and war particularly photogenic? Or is it just attracting the best photographers out there? del.icio.us Tags: art,photography,journalism,contests Bookmark/Share: sociallist_ef7caa2b_url = 'http://www.overthecounterculture.com/2008/revolution-over-at-evokeone/'; sociallist_ef7caa2b_title = 'Revolution over at EvokeONE'; sociallist_ef7caa2b_text = ''; sociallist_ef7caa2b_tags = ''; ...
Milk: buy it on Amazon
Some fantastic reviews of the gallon of milk available on Amazon.com - don’t drink said fluid as you read these, it might fly out of your nose In other news, I like this song. del.icio.us Tags: mp3,music,random,e-commerce,Amazon Bookmark/Share: sociallist_9ebfae84_url = 'http://www.overthecounterculture.com/2008/revolution-over-at-evokeone/'; sociallist_9ebfae84_title = 'Revolution over at EvokeONE'; sociallist_9ebfae84_text = ''; sociallist_9ebfae84_tags = ''; ...
