Good Morning!

The Rouchomovsky Skeleton: “The fully articulated human skeleton in a velvet-lined coffin. with three panels showing the course of life, one end with attributes of the arts, the other with attributes of war, the cover with the journey in the footsteps of the Angel of Death, surrounded by the faces of infants alternately laughing and crying.” via retronaut

1998.  Neutral Milk Hotel releases In the Aeroplane Over the Sea.  There are few indie albums that are more loved and cherished than this record.  Jeff Mangum takes us to a strange world of two-headed boys, mothers in garbage bins, and sticking forks into shoulders.

This album is simultaneously uplifting and depressing and I love it very much.

Ian Davie’s feather art

Most artists paint on canvas or linen but Ian Davie eschews convention and uses swan feathers to capture his work.

According to Ian, “Having worked alongside wildlife all my life it is hardly surprising these are the subjects I chose to paint, making the most of my experience. In addition I sort a natural sustainable canvas to display my work in a creative and unique manner. What better canvas than a beautiful swan’s feather. Inspiration for my painting usually comes from sightings of wildlife, views of habitat or the effects of changing light, seasons and weather, often combined to create the ideal composition.”
