Eat. Drink. Design.

When I wrote about A24’s newest cookbook “Scrounging” I was excited to see that New York creative duo Wade and Leta were behind the photography. The pair of artists run the gamut from branding to large-scale installations. You name it, the couple can make it. So I reached out to see if they’d give us a behind-the-scenes look at how the imagery came together, their inspirations, and what they did and didn’t eat.
GQ interviewed Ezra Klein, noted blogger and podcaster, about his formula for a good day, to which he gave four fundamentals that really resonated with me. “Am I sleeping enough? Am I getting enough time to myself? Am I deeply connected with the people I love? Am I making fairly healthy choices in my body? ” Seems like a pretty smart way to look at things.
I’m such a fan of Salman Toor, I’ve written about his work many times at this point, and so I was happy to see that Art21 had created a video interview with him. Before this, I hadn’t actually seen Toor speaking, and it was fascinating getting to see him exist, and hear him talk about his work. He captures such an interesting world of queer friendships, as well as the stresses and anxieties of being queer in such a turbulent time in the US. Anyhow, I really like being able to see a glimpse behind the curtain of creatives and this is a really lovely profile.
Liner Notes interviewed Teenage Engineering co-founder David Möllerstedt about design principles, not giving up on your ideas, remixing yourself, and specialization, amongst other things. A great read for design and music nerds alike.
Loved this interview with Wilfred Wood on Everpress about how he got his start, the way he captures the “essence” of his subjects, and how you know when a piece is finished.
I remember the one time I stayed at the Mercer in New York, and as I’m checking out, I see Courtney Love checking in. She wore a white blouse with a thin, black pencil skirt, I assume it was Chanel, it was very much that time. And after growing up with Nirvana and Hole and all that, it felt like such an iconic moment, because, she was, and will always be iconic. Financial Times interviewed her at her home in London, and I enjoyed every word of this delectable chat.
