    The Dalai Lama is coming to Australia next month, and I managed to score a ticket to see his seminar in Melbourne. I’m really looking forward to dosing my soul in clean, refreshing perspective.

    Today, anyone can be a photographer. But I think it still rings true that a special few have ‘an eye’ for it.

    I loved …Paul’s post last week of Back to the Future: a photograph concept. Photographer Irina Werning recreated old childhood photographs, with some very goofy results. This got me thinking – isn’t it great that we live in 2011?! The advertising strategies and fashion in the 70s and 80s is something quite unbelievable, but my…

    I haven’t been to a music festival in a while. In fact, my ticket to Future Music is proudly stuck on my fridge, acknowledging my return to contemporary tunes (from my usual 80s playlist). What I love about music, is how often it goes hand in hand with visual art. Brandon Boyd, the lead singer…
