patti smith – polaroids

i remember the first time i saw patti smith polaroids in paris at “la fondation cartier” and the book published along with it. that was so great and so poetic, i guess people are nowadays a little more into those not so tech-ish thing but at the time that felt fresh (even if polaroids are not so fresh per say, i know) so i was happy to see another selection of her pictures this week end in the ny times. so from top to bottom, left to right we have: Pope Benedict XV’s slippers / a replica of William Blake’s life mask / Virginia Woolf’s bed /  Susan Sontag’s grave in Montparnasse Cemetery / Constantin Brancusi’s grave, also in Montparnasse / Robert Mapplethorpe’s slippers. more here. by pp.

aaaah camille darling, you know we love you, but 1- how could you leave such an amazing man like jarvis and 2- what is this behavior and debauchery after jarvis? you should know there’s nothing really left to prove especially when you’re hanging out with mister cheese himself, olivier zahn. by dd

wagon wheel – old crow medicine show

my favorite song this week. the actual ‘official video’ for the produced version of this song is absolutely horrendous, it almost ruined it for me, so i figured i’d spare all y’all and give you the only other version i could find online. not much better, but at least they’re not perfectly styled pioneer hipsters, and it’s a great song. by kl

steve just left and apple already sucks

i went to purchase a few songs on itunes and i got this? so much for all the praise for apple. can some one please explain what the hell does this sentence mean? if you had written this in 8th grade you would have failed your paper. its not even a sentence.

 

i quote: “notification of an additional type of previously-purchased content may be subsequently downloaded to certain computers and devices as an accommodation to you. subject to existing association rules; and that content may be played back on certain devices that are not subject to existing association rules, with limitations.”

 

it is clearly written in a way to confuse the hell out of the user. its absolute nonsense. are they changing the rules so “your previous purchases can no longer be played on multiple devices?” i cant make sense of it! i cancelled my planned purchase of the songs till further notice, and i’m a little pissed. and i’m not alone… here is another user and his question on apple support: “The new terms and conditions for the iTunes Store say that each device can only be associated with a single account, and you can only switch them once every 90 days. I have accounts in different countries because I’ve lived in different places. How is this going to affect me? Am I going to lose access to half of my apps?” by dd
