qatar revealed as the world’s biggest contemporary art buyer

Sheikha Al Mayassa at the opening of Takashi Murakami’s exhibition at Versailles in 2010

i thought this art article was interesting. i'm not so surprised because definitely in the past 10 years the eastern hemisphere has been enjoying the largest scale architectural projects, with hotels, business buildings, museums and cultural centers going up. they have to fill the museums up with something. i might have to put "visit qatar" on my travel to-do list one day.

if you are familiar with modern art names, you might enjoy seeing the short list of what they have been acquiring and at what prices. full article here

here's another mpc instrumental i got lined up for the pixar/zardoz project im collaborating w/ my friends on. my best friend joey from the band rumspringa will be singing on this one. we haven't really come up w/ lyrics yet though. the subject could be about anything. maybe a topic sentence, or a one line lyric. leave your suggestions. we'll give you a shout out o the song for sure!

p.s. that rumspringa video is pretty old, and members have changed, but it's their most popular vid and the lead singer is still the same

the human animal - the human zoo

this is part three of a series called "the human animal." this episode called "the human zoo" follows the consequences of industrial and technological urbanization but us as humans still retaining tribal social notions. "The cameras of the Natural History Unit capture the subtleties of human hierarchy in an English pub, the urge to set up and defend territory in a Tokyo park, and tribal behaviour as displayed by gangs in Los Angeles." it's a super fun watch. you get to see people and different living conditions all across the globe from the comfort of your computer screen

let you go (official vid) -- marble players

this has to be the best music video i've seen all month. maybe i just love virtual reality/electronic avatars and house music. I LOVE FUNKY DEEP HOUSE! the feeling, the graphic and everything is just right! my anthem for this upcoming weekend for sure. enjoy!!!
