This Silence kills
Dillon first album

 

 

 

 
 

Thirteen Thirtyfive vs. Pocketful of Money

 

 
 

Voice and fabric

Dominique Dillon De Byington was born a Brasilian and now lives in Cologne, Germany, the album then is in keeping with the Bpitch Control catalogue from Berlin. The later, I dislike most for her branding. More on her in this BBC review by Mike Diver.

Any such unusual and well tempered voice gets noticed immediately in todays media channels and pulls even those in their ban who by all means trust not to be paedophiles.

Signing up with Berlin’s Bpitch Control won’t allow Dillon to find acceptance in the broader audience and labeling herself as ‘avant garde’ or ‘progressive’ make me want to ignore what would otherwise be a feast to listen to.

Choosing a small fragment in our fragmented market place may have an inverted affect and do just that, constrain Dillon to a micro market.

A measure from times long gone, when we believed the massed to be dumb, and had no conscience that it would also consist of strong individuals.

As with David Kitt, Dillon’s music is accoustic music or hipster music with a difference, it makes use of electronic influences.

Tv- and movie productions or tv ads will profit from the ambience.

Feist metals and the cult of done

December 25th, 2011 No comments

The Year in Culture (read NY Times article


 

How come you never go there?


 

 

Dido Victoria and myself

Dido draft

Manifesto by Bre Pettis and Kio Stark. Poster by Joshua Rothaas.


We were watching Kate Bush performing “Wuthering Heights” on YouTube…

…before we visited Feist’s website.

Both videos show women dancing in the woods.

Leslie Feist with hair down to her heels.


 

It’s the cult of done that we get to watch

When we get to watch Leslie Feist perform or when we get to read anything about our favorite artist, she is long done with it and has moved on to the next project.

Dido likes the courage it took Kate Bush to perform her crap dance in the woods and it took Leslie Feist as little as elongated hair to make my Christmas day.


 

People just love to watch people be done

Doing is good and being done is as good as it gets.


 

The Cult of Done

Read the manifesto here.

Edit the manifesto here.

.Better yet, do what you intend to do.

Be done with it.

Make sure its accessible.

Have other people talk about what you have done.

Move on to the next.

Become a member of the cult of done on facebook.

Keep your lips sealed.


 

Be done already

Work at your own pace.

Remember most everything is easier done than said.

Laura Taylor by A. Dola Baroni

Laura Taylor is a young photographer and movie maker from Los Angeles.

With a huge following, she has made a name for herself and her “Darling Life” brand.

MySpace, Flickr and finally Tumblr.

70 comments per entry are no exception for what may now be nearly a decade.


 

I haven’t come around the Darling Life tumblr site for some time

Amanda, Miranda, Nicole, Erika, Lauren & Kyle, Lindi, Lindi, Lindi, Mem, Brandon…

So yes, I am no less in awe of Laura Taylor’s photographs and stunts, with which she understands so well to capture the sensation of normality, and does it better than the professional photographer colleague we come across in our usual marketing life.

Besides her obvious remarkable taste in music.

Now here is a bit of motion picture I found on her site

From page 19, here’s her taste in video gaming:


 

Limbo

 

 

From page 25 here’s her taste in music documentary:

Model Intelligence: Occupy Wall Street

In her latest effort, Laura Taylor takes on motion picture in a series of Model Intelligence documentary films. The film shown below is Occupy Wall Street for the rest of us. A web series Laura is working on with Stevie Levine. This episode features the stunning Miranda Lilley with hair and makeup by Lindi Taylor.

It somewhat explains why young girls now color their hair brunette instead of bleach blonde.


 

 

Model Intelligence: Animal Rights

Model Mem Kennedy shares her thoughts on animal rights.

Follow Model Intelligence on tumblr, twitter and facebook.

Talent scouts, art and creative directors take note.

If in need of authentic hipster photography or work that works, consider Laura Taylor’s portfolio.
