For anyone who has eaten the whole box, or bag, or carton the photographs in this series make light of our secret binges. Here, the consequences of indulgence are tabloid or monster movie deaths. Daniela Edburg’s Drop Dead Gorgeous both mocks and satisfies our cravings. via

Feeling guilty? he he I know I do...

I am re-reading the book now - it find it so beautiful and haunting, I don't know if it is because I connect with it on a very personal level, but anyway I think of Murakami as a contemporary demi-god... this is the trailer for the film, it's being released this march in UK but I must say I have such mixed-feelings about seeing it - cause I have such a clear image in my head about the characters and I don't want to spoil it, but on the other hand I know the director worked closely with Murakami and just seeing the trailer made me tingle...

the mad ones

"The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow Roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars, and in the middle, you see the blue center-light pop, and everybody goes ahh..."

I absolutely love this video, found via Inspiration Across the Ocean... I always thought there's something a little bit creepy about dolls.
And... I kind of saved the best for last, 'cause today by total coincidence -there seems to be a doll theme today-  I came across this other website - Enchanted Doll, via my bestest of friends over at Humbaya. I spend hours browsing through all the pictures of these truly enchanted dolls...Please do the same, they're amazing, you'll love them especially if you enjoy a little bit of twisted/fetish details :P

Twin suns of Tatooine

Here's my new fantastic find: Jeremy Messersmith... and here's one of his songs, called Tatooine, with a great video from animator/filmmaker Eric Power . The song talks about this planet...

'There's room up there for second chances
Singles are fine but doubles are fantastic
I'd like to think that there's a star for me and you
Spinning round, falling for one another'

Check up both artists' websites. Eric Power does some beautiful paper animations and Jeremy has more great great songs and videos that you can download on a very friendly pay-whatever-you-want policy. Sweeeet!
