Synesthesia
The gang at Yours Truly are starting a project called Synesthesia and I have jumped on board to help produce future installments of the series. So what is it? I’ll let Momo Ishiguro from Yours Truly explain it!
Even if you’re not synesthetic (a neurological condition that produces the rare ability to experience separate senses simultaneously), there are times when colors seep through songs and music wafts out of otherwise quiet objects. A certain chord has a blue-gray tint; a certain sculpture sounds like waves crashing on the shore.
In this new series, Yours Truly asks some of the most visual people around to fill us in on the links between sound and vision by paying homage to a sonic artist who has helped them hear colors and sing shapes.
Skin
Look out for “Skin”, a documentary by Ryan Hope about tattoo culture and fine art. It features contributions from Damien Hirst, Jeff Koons, and others.

Fabio and Alicja
A costume sculpture made of shredded newspapers found around East London, by Fabio Lattanzi Antinori and Alicja Pytlewska.
Tsui Kuang-Yu
“Bowling Alley in London” by artist Tsui Kuang-Yu. I had seen this work a long time ago and forgotten the artist, but thanks to the help of Roberto Pérez (via the Booooooom Tumblr) I was able to track down the video again and upload it to Youtube.

Table Beggar
“Table Beggar” by Loose Fit. A stunner of a music video by London-based director/animator Abbie Stephens (this is her first music video).

01 Magazine / Group Exhibition
The 01 Magazine Group Exhibition finally comes home to Vancouver! Swing by the Interurban Gallery (1 East Hastings at Carrall) Friday at 8pm!
Last Name London
“Last Name London” by Theophilus London. Directed by my friend Harrison (Boyce and Brown). I was sad to see him leave Vancouver for New York last year, but it’s exciting to see a talented friend breaking through.
