Not All Girls Like Pink

So I totally missed Kimora Lee's appearance at Starhill as I was busy with a different project. I guess our interview didn't quite happen either but no worries, I was immortalised at the event by a local blogger who apparently takes horrible pictures just for the heck of it. This picture is all kinds of funny though. Gotta' love his sense of humour in all his event shots. via  http://keehuachee.blogspot.com/ Here's the original video. My hosting/directing debut. First and last I tell ya!

The Naked and the Famous hail from New Zealand and are a post-punk revival band. What's post-punk revival you ask? That's basically what you get when you take inspiration from the original sounds and aesthetics of garage rock of the 1960s and post-punk and New Wave of the late 1970s. (according to uncle Wiki of course) Think Yeah Yeah Yeahs, The White Stripes, The Strokes,  The Vines and Arctic Monkeys perhaps? The female vocalist of The Naked and Famous has a darn cool name! Alisa Xayalith. Now where did that come from?! The song Young Blood was prominently featured in the Pilot episode of Elementary, the American Sherlock Holmes remake by CBS. And then some of the other songs were on Gossip Girls, The Secret Cirle, Vampire Diaries, Grey's Anatomy etc.  Fun stuff!

How do you know when that restless feeling stems from a spirit of  discontent...  or adventure?

Via  Shrimp Salad Circus Today I'm just reminded to plug in to the right things and focus on the things that matter. This was probably the only resolution I made this year and as we enter into March, I hope I'm living it. Being all there.

This is just one cool ass song. Honestly I haven't heard Fiona Apple in a looooong while but this song makes me want to dig up all that I've missed since her second hiatus. "The Idler Wheel Is Wiser Than the Driver of the Screw and Whipping Cords Will Serve You More Than Ropes Will Ever Do."   Yups that's her album title. Pretty cool, no? Would be even cooler if there was a dance choreographed to this track. :D

Here's a little something from the local front. Wordsmith Vix Chandra aka Sayla always has been quite the poet and he has the musicality to match. Here's one of his latest tracks which I absolutely love. Little known fact about Vix is that he was an avid painter too. It always amazes me how one person can bring to life or channel creativity in all its different forms and ways. Keep your eyes peeled for Utopian Dreams Pt2: Sui Generis (2013).

This is a really cute video from two of my favourite fashion photographers. Their individual works are really inspiring and although I don't take good pictures, their styling and ability to capture scenes and moments have really enabled me to look at things a little differently. Especially in my line of work. :) I'll perhaps share a video I worked on inspired by Garance. :D
