Joseph Arthur and The Lonely Astronauts new record
Joseph Arthur has been putting out records at a frantic pace over his 10-year career but no period has been quite like 2008 for the American musician. Temporary People is his fifth disc of the year, following a staggered series of EP releases. This is Arthur’s second full-length with his Lonely Astronaut players, and it’s clear from the start that this is the first time one of his albums has truly sounded like it’s being played by a band and not by one man. Arthur is used to being the focal point (and one would assume he’s still writing the lyrics), but on Temporary People, he very skillfully steps into the background and lets his bandmates flaunt their wares. Those looking for Joseph Arthur the solo artist should still seek out 2000’s Come To Where I’m From. For anyone interested in Joseph Arthur the band leader, Temporary People is a first-rate place to start.

FOLLOW THE LIGHT
You’re invited to the 3rd Annual Follow The Light Foundation Award Dinner
…In memory of Larry “Flame” Moore
On October 10th, 2005, the surfing community lost one of its most influential figures. After a nearly three year battle with severe brain cancer Larry “Flame” Moore, the Photo Editor of SURFING Magazine for 30 years, passed. He left behind a legacy of brilliant photography and an army of photographers trained by him. Through his work at SURFING Magazine, Larry literally gave three decades of surfing their “look.”
Now, mark your calendars; Follow the Light Foundation is hosting their awards dinner to announce the winners of the most recent Surf Photographers Grant. Put your money where your heart is, and come celebrate Surf’s new emerging art talent.

A SPACE ODYSSEY
Installation artist Misaki Kawai’s colorful world is filled with walruses, surfers, dollhouses, and just a little bit of porn
By Kate Williams
Misaki Kawai’s apartment building looks like thousands of others in Brooklyn: brick, beige, and vaguely industrial. Inside, though, Kawai’s loft is like Pee-Wee’s Playhouse—paint-splattered, trippy, and full of enough not-quite-imaginary friends to throw a mad tea party at a moment’s notice. Read more

…the video for “Heartbeats” by the Knife.
Not only was I obsessed with this track for, like, four months, but the official video clip is almost as mesmerizing as the song itself. Read more
