Up & Right: Raise Cache and the New New York:

I was at the “Raise Cache” fashion show to benefit HackNY last night at the armory on Lexington. A few things occurred to me:

This event could not have happened or even been contemplated five years ago in NYC

The crowd was almost exclusively 21-35 year olds

There were very few if any…

parislemon:

This is actually the craziest chart about Apple following their insane earnings today.

There is exactly one company on that entire list that is not an oil and gas company. And they’re not that far from the top.

I’m all about Adventure Time and this piece is crazy awesome! Although, why is Prince Bubblebgum, from the gender swap episode, chewing his own hair? :/ Be sure to check out her full gallery for more awesome cartoon fan art.

Bat for Lashes Visuals

Robin and Julia of Treat Studios directed these visuals for Bat for Lashes (Natasha Khan) early 2010. This is a short edit of around 20 mins of footage produced. The visuals were projected behind her singing with a string quartet, it was ace.

The song is ‘Siren Song’

AOL TV: 'Dexter' Season 6, Episode 3 Recap: 'Smokey and the Bandit'

Would have to agree that Mos Def & Michael C. Hall should definitely make a habit of hanging out and I’m definitely rooting for Masuka - How could you not?! Make sure to check out the AOL TV recap weekly after Dexter airs on Showtime

Season Six of ‘Dexter’ has already shown it has two intriguing, disturbing and creepy “Big Bads” working for it in Travis and the Professor. They’re murdering people in bizarre ritualistic ways and their storyline was the most compelling part of this episode, yet frustratingly, Edward James Olmos and Colin Hanks were only given a few minutes of screen-time. Using an abandoned temple as an evil lair, they orchestrated a grotesque final scene that made the Headless Horseman look quaint, sending a chopped-up, half-murder-victim, half-mannequin riding on two horses through a Miami block party.

Still, at this point it’s unclear exactly what specific kind of twisted cult ideology is driving Travis and Professor Gellar’s murderous weirdness. It feels like we should know by now, but I guess we’re still in the weird ritualistic storytelling phase of this season’s plot set-up. It’s something about repentance and purity, but that lack of info is starting to walk a dangerous line between suspenseful and feeling like it’s overdue. As Travis put it, “I don’t believe what you are saying.”
