It’s no secret that MF Doom is one of our favorite artists, ever. So we’re pretty geeked at this 90 minute lecture/q&a he did at the Red Bull Music Academy. In it, he candidly discusses every aspect of his career to date while wearing his mask. Thats all that needs to be said. Check out [...]
We Love This: MF DOOM Lecture At Red Bull Music Academy [VIDEO]
WE LOVE THIS: Bibio – “Excuses” [VIDEO]
Bibio has come a long way. Somewhere around 2005-2006, he put out fi, which is exactly what the name suggests. It was so (adorably) scratchy and analog-sounding that it would seem weird to toss it in the “lo-fi” pile, while at the same time it was clearly not “high” fidelity. So “fi” just fit. Check [...]
Light + Video: Jawan Harris – “Another Planet” Ft. Chris Brown
A few months ago, Jive records approached us to shoot a lyric video for one of their new artists, a kid named Jawan Harris. The song was “Another Planet” and with its themes of intergalactic time-machine pimpin and star travel, we could see how the smart folks at Jive thought lightpainting would be a great [...]
See Y’all in SF!
We’re heading to SF! We’ll be leaving tomorrow night to shoot a private event downtown. We’re only there for a short time, but we’re really excited about this event in particular, as well as the possibility of seeing THIS GUY. Other than that, we’re going to see some old homies and we’ll make sure to [...]
WE LOVE THIS: “Evensong” by Sophie Clements
Michelle just forwarded me this one, and its brilliant. This is a piece of “visual music” created by Sophie Clements, and what we admire here is the amazing control she has over her lights. Anyone who can manipulate light that well in a video setting deserves recognition for it, as it is no easy feat. [...]
Summer So Far + The Canon Logic Rooftop This Thursday!

Michelle + P.O.S. + Immaculate Infatuation
If you didn’t know already, we basically do whatever Immaculate Infatuation tells us to do. Immaculate Infatuation is a local NYC-based food blog run by two music-biz guys who take a pretty relaxed approach to the daunting NYC food scene. They’re also our friends. So when they were looking for a photographer to shoot one [...]
WE LOVE THIS: Janet Hansen – Light Fashion Engineer
VBS.TV just posted this episode of “Motherboard”, focusing on the wearable light art of Janet Hansen. All we can really say about this is just WANT! and other explosive declarations of love for this kind of stuff. Her LED fur coat, the Daft Punk suits, and the outfits she made for MIA’s dancers are our [...]
