So here it is, yesterday is the day I stumbled upon the Local Natives during one of my daily temporal slip – when I disappear in a hole made from the web, and reappear some time later with new information (new to me) about something that could someday prove useful (or maybe not).

So yesterday as I hopped from one place to the next, this video caught my eye. And after a few clicks I discovered:

A. They are from Silver Lake / B. They are five of them / C. They like guitares and one has a strange squicky voice.

And they were in concert last night at the Pully For Noise, next to the town I live. But I wasn’t there. So the morality of it all is that’s it’s just a question of timing.

PS — Vimeo is better designed than YouTube

Michael Cera has the typical size and shape of a nerd, but don’t judge a book by it’s cover. You might know him from the 3 year show “Arrested Development” where he was George Michael, Maeby’s cousin. If you have never heard of AD then you should maybe try to rent it, buy it, or download it because it’s the funniest show and has unfortunately been “killed“ to soon, so it is a classical, almost.

Another Michael Cera movie I would defitely recommend is “Youth in Revolt”, a story about a shy teenager who creates a rebel persona, a sort of Doctor Jekyll and Mr Hyde

Interview Magazine has an article this month on Michael Cera being interviewed by Jason Schwartzman, another of my favs. You should check it out! http://www.interviewmagazine.com/film/michael-cera

A new addition to the fashion-houses-that-make-films is Zoe Cassavetes film for Louis Vuitton aka Marc Jacobs. Two models play a game of Hide and Seek in the english country side. A little bit on the Sofia Coppola side, all girly and pretty.Cheers!

Yeah! The new M.I.A. video is out!
Directed by HYPE Williams.

Voici un film qui a été présenté à Cannes à la Semaine de la Critique et qui est passé dimanche au Festival International du Film de Locarno.
”Rubber” de Quentin Dupieux

Un film qui rappelle “Duel” de Spielberg, une histoire de pneu vengeur. Mise à part le synopsis qui suffit pour donner envie, le fait que le film a été intégralement tourné avec l’appareil photo Canon Eos 5D Mark II mérite qu’on y porte de l’attention. Avec l’évolution des appareils photos et des vidéos amateurs qui deviennent de plus en plus pros, Quentin Dupieux laisse penser que le cinéma est désormais à portée de tous. Vraiment?

Hard to recognize this pop star.

I watched this 27 minute documentary on Zurich Rock bands in 1983 (out of the archives of the Swiss Television, Rock et belles oreilles). A vision of Zurich in the 80’s through it’s music. Interesting, naive, and a nice flashback. But beware!!! “il y a certaines séquences qui peuvent paraître un peu déroutantes car elles sont beaucoup plus artistiques et conceptuelles que musicales” http://archives.tsr.ch/player/coupcoeur-zurich
