Bret Easton Ellis usually keeps to a certain style in his work.  In this video he argues that love and sadism are linked, and that technology has stopped us from feeling.  Patrick Bateman obviously didn’t have Facebook.

Volkan Ergen makes creepy & beautiful videos.  Just give yourself a moment to stop what you are doing…or several moments.

Less and More interview done by gestalten.tv.  Since Rams is the Godfather of Apple design, Mr. Jonathan Ive needs to remember to keep following the principles that were established to allow design to help people, not dominate.

Collaboration between Wonderland Magazine, Dior Homme & Verso Films.  By Jose Otero & Hans Lo.

The Hoof & The Heel are an unsigned Canadian band that made a pretty music video. Directed by Bryan Schlam.

The upshot contrasts the thoroughly contemporary mix of textures & colors with a four-inch silhouette that conjures gramophones of the past.

The diary of Hedi Slimane.  I’ve learned that this man can do anything.  If only my work looked this good in black & white.

The XX are back with another fantastic performance on pitchfork.tv’s video series, Surveillance. This time they performed “Night Time”. Very dark & lovely.

Ryan Gosling & Zach Shields are featured in this behind-the-scenes look into their band Dead Man’s Bones tour from last fall.

INVENTORY is dedicated to “products, craft & culture”, as the front of the magazine says.  It has a stockroom where you can purchase goods as well.
