daydream nation

long time since last post. and there we are.

while lots has been going on in the past few weeks, i think instead of writing about it y'all should just go check out this video of fifth graders recreating devo's "whip it" video. here. it's amazing.



the other day in a fit of i-don't-have-any-money-so-i'll-buy-an-artbook i picked up a copy of Live Through This: New York in the Year 2005. put out by deitch, it's a great survey of the "downtown" art scene in new york, and it's co-edited by a girl that was a couple years ahead of me at dartmouth. my favorite sections are the ones on dash snow, ryan mcginley, and, of course, phiiliip/avenue d. top by dash snow, bottom by ryan mcginley; from tinyvices.com

tim sweeney is one of nyc's most underrated djs, and quickly becoming one of my favorites. check out the website for his weekly radio show beats in space, lots of great playlists and streaming dj mixes. recent hot mixes include prins thomas and superpitcher.

banana nutrament, one of the best mp3 blogs out there, has a great "vote for miss indie rock 2005" poll going on right now.

oh, on a side note, i think what's going on with kate moss right now is beyond silliness. i mean really.
