Tatsuyuki Tanaka
[From: Desparchando]
Tatsuyuki Tanaka is a fantastic Japanese Illustrator who caught my attention quite a while ago. Here's what io9 has to say:
Tanaka was one of the key animators on Akira and was responsible for, among other things, the animation of Testuo’s rapidly mutating arm. His still illustrations draw from similar imagery, telling stories of young people set in a crumbling future, and filled with grotesque experiments and bizarre creatures.
The Radio Station that Will Change your Life
... If it hasn't already.
Based in Los Angeles, KCRW's program "Morning Becomes Eclectic," has already introduced the world to bands such as Beck, Fiona Apple, Coldplay, Dido, and Norah Jones (among many many others).
As written in a NYT article about them, "''Morning Becomes Eclectic,'' and KCRW as a whole, are renowned for purveying the contemporary music equivalent of art-house films or literary fiction, a genre the rock critic Robert Christgau calls ''semipopular'' music, marked less by style than by a certain base-line intelligence and tastefulness"

Grace Cathedral is a landmark of such size that you would doubtedly miss if you ever find yourself in San Francisco's Nob Hill district. Set among old school hotels, fancy dog parks, rich old ladies, and pre-war brick apartment buildings, the huge Episcopal cathedral towers magnificently above the daily San Franciscan fog.
Every Sunday the neighborhood is filled with the sound of ringing bells calling crowds to mass. Every morning the streets are filled with children's laughter from the playground of the all boys' school held on the premises.
Once a month, however, the cathedral halls and arched ceilings reflect a very different kind of sound -- the funk beat from a DJ spinning behind huge speakers set up right next to the Holy Water basin (which is conveniently located next to a make-shift bar). You heard me right.

Voltage - Animated perfection.
Just found this on Vimeo. Simply fantastic!
