Judson Beaumont | Tree Lights
Wed, 10/10/2012 - 09:41 by vanessa
Judson Beaumont, of Vancouver's Straight Lines Design, has created these amazing stools and tables out of trees. Tree Rings are created using split Pine Beetle wood, which is then covered with a colored resin top. During the day, they look like a regular stump table, but at night, they become illuminated with light glowing through the resin, showing of the ring pattern.
Music Review |The Zolas-Ancient Mars
Thu, 10/04/2012 - 14:37 by vanessa
Vancouver locals, The Zolas, could quite possibly become the next di-cephalic ensemble to reach the masses with their Siamese sounds. On their most recent recording, Ancient Mars, the keyboard/guitar driven Zolas hit their stride like Secretariat catching the last furlong at Steeple Chase. Their melodies are somehow bouncy and sexy at the same time, and find perfect pockets within playfully dark swordplay between punchy piano riffs and jangly guitar.

FOCUS | Stephen Wilde
Wed, 09/05/2012 - 12:19 by vanessa
B.C. born Stephen Wilde found his love for photography while studying years ago in Calgary. His talent for drawing may not have blossomed during his time at the Alberta College of Art and Design, but his love for photography did. After giving up the pencil for the camera lens, he then spent a summer in New York with Annie Leibovitz, learning the style of photography he is now known for - taking photos of people and places in their natural environment.
