We are extremely happy and excited to present the second, and final part of Alex Klein’s Shotwell episode. In part two, we learn about the actual production of God Went Surfing With The Devil, the responsibilities of being a documentary filmmaker, and the effects the whole experience had on him. We even jump off some cliffs. Enjoy, and if you haven’t seen part 1, please watch it first after the jump.

No Excuses: The Morning Benders Interview

posted by matt

morning-benders-blog

Over the last few weeks, if you haven’t at least seen the name “The Morning Benders,” you’ve probably been living under a rock. From rave reviews of their newest singles, to an amazing video performance of ‘Excuses,’ to topping the music aggregator charts, the Benders have been blowing up. Recently, we got to sit down with lead singer and songwriter of the band, Chris Chu, to talk about what they’ve been up to over the last year and a half, including recording the album, working with Chris Taylor of Grizzly Bear, and the air of nostalgia that’s found all over the new record, BIG ECHO. Check out the interview here.

The Mulholland Session — WESC spring 2010

posted by jordan

In their incredible spring campaign, WESC took to the top of Mulholland drive for a spring time jump off. Dragging with them activists Alex Prager, Jason Lee, Steve Berra, Yonehara, Chris Pastras, Ray Barbee, and Wieger van Wageningen. Poor guys. This appears to be an absolutely dismal afternoon.

I love it when people just don’t give a fuck. This kid is an absolute beast. In a really special piece, the first of a series titled Bridging The Gap directed by Joseph Lobato, Hernan Montenegro and Take Over LA show you that bicycle riding is what you make of it.

How Many Billboards

posted by jordan

I just caught a truly inspiring outdoor project going on in Los Angeles right now titled How Many Billboards? Art In Stead.

The basic idea of the project was to use small art to break up the dreary canvas of Los Angeles urban landscape. In this case, the monotony being the thousands of billboards that Los Angeles houses. The MAK Center for Art and Architecture set up the outdoor exhibition and commissioned 21 artists to explore Billboards as a canvas for their work.

“The streets of Los Angeles become the walls of the exhibition, and the city itself becomes a large museum,”
