This was my favourite internet of last week. Fantastic photo/video campaign for Hatsumi's Laundry shot by Lyall Coburn featuring his stunning gf Hannah...

Moni Haworth's photography that's "always always" inspired by America. Moni Haworth's photography depicts such realism that I've started living vicariously through them. The reality being a carefree, love-drugged American life, where the beds are messy and the people are pretty. I checked out an interview with her on Frock & Roll from 2011 and though she claims to be a little shy, I reckon you have to be brave to photograph people the way she does. She shoots like it's a scene and each collection of photographs is like a micro-story, a little peep into these peoples' lives - most of which are young people in an aging world. I became enamored with the rawness of that reality, with the pierced nipples and desert hops and walled posters and dirt roads and carpetted hallways and cars and disheveled rooms and so many tattoes on such different skin. Here I'm just sharing my favorite of the lot: fuck drugs lets skate. Her lips are red and his back is scarred and you can feel the adorableness

Meticulously crafted sculptures that will make you see..

A man with a golden face has released a killer free EP.. I'd love to tell you all about Golden Features, but I can't. Literally he/she just released a self-titled EP for free on Soundcloud last night, and it's killer. The genre-traversion found on Golden Features is great, with some slow jams, bassy music, winding house, trippy samples and more to be found. Best you just go listen to it: Everyone likes a bit of mystery with their music-makers, and one gets the feeling we'll be hearing plenty more from Golden Features in 2014. For now you can like them on FACEBOOK or follow through the Soundcloud above.

Why aren't you watching this show yet?.

In Australia soon, Slow Magic gets his feels on in the 'Love 2014 Mix'.. We're pretty damn excited about Slow Magic's upcoming AUSTRALIAN TOUR. The mysterious forest dweller claiming to be everyone's best friend is in New Zealand on Thursday, before heading west to play a bunch of Australian shows after. He recently put together the below mixtape, filled with 'music to listen 2 with yr loved one', filled with plenty of sexy jams, including a couple of his own. Enjoy:

Jeju Island in Korea has a pornography park, and it's fantastic/nightmarish.. Yes, that header photo is of a dog and a man bro-ing out whilst engaged in carnal relations with another member of their species... Before I was bombarded by assignments and a textbook-induced slap from my bank account, I flew to Korea during the holidays to catch up with the 'rents and teach my sailor how to use chopsticks (still in progress). It was my second time visiting Seoul, but Jeju Island was new and beautiful and sexciting! Loveland is a landscape of genitalia and pornographic sculptures, lending its visitors embarrassed laughter and a chance to waltz through a meta-penis. But words won’t do it justice; pictures shall do the work for me. Indulge in the art of sex, claw machines (chock full of sex toys), phallus cakes, 'love' handles and The Terminator...

How many shakas can one throw on a 20-second wave?.

We finally unveil the debut EP proper from forest dwelling wonder kid SABLE.. Sable - Feels So Good EP is Out Today!With countless shows around the country & his first single, the huge jersey inspired glitter bomb 'Feels So Good' sitting at #2 in the Triple J Most Played charts (just behind Australian behemoths The Presets!), it's a bonafide fact that our little furry creature has been making some serious waves over the last few months. From the delicious house-leaning bump of 'Want U Girl', the infectious 'Foolin' the fizzing club destroyer 'Heights' or the to-many-rupees-in-my-sack 8 bit vibes of 'Mana Pool', it's a truly fantastic EP - with a little something for everybody! Go pre-order it now, right here, it feeeels sooo good! --> http://bit.ly/sableEP
