Do What You Love And The Success Will Follow
The first thing I need to get right is my mindset. You can have all the knowledge and information in the world, but if you don’t have the success mindset, all that will mean absolutely nothing and you will not accomplish much.
So what does it take to have a success mindset? click here to read full article post

The Qemists Album Launch Party
Blasting into the new year Brighton three piece The Qemists raise sonic standards with their heady amalgamation of drum n bass beats spliced viciously with searing rock effects. Reaching inception originally as a rock outfit, the trio generate plaudits for their bombastic DJ sets and have championed respect from veritable primates of the D'n'B kingdom: Mampi Swift, Andy C and many more. Firing on all cylinders, this is their debut tour as a live unit (finishing off with two headline dates in Japan where the album is knocking on the door of the top 40 over there!). Commemorating the release of their debut LP 'Join the Q', prepare to be disarmed by live guitars, raw drums and amplified bass from the 3 Qemists; the brute force of this being yoked together by the vocal stylings of Jenna G + live MC! Expounding guttural bass-loops funnelled through crashing guitar chords, its no wonder that The Qemists have garnered approval from heavyweight rockers Bruce Dickinson (Iron Maiden) and Faith No More's Mike Patton, who also makes a guest appearance on the LP. So buckle up and prepare for a crash course in futuristic beats at breakneck speeds...blink and you'll miss something!

Jack Sal: Re/Vision
now until FEB 28, 2009 // ZONE: Contemporary Art // New York, NY
ZONE: CONTEMPORARY ART begins 2009 with "Jack Sal: Re/Vision" a long overdue exhibition for a multi-faceted artist. His work appears in the many permanent collections, including the Museum of Modern Art and the International Center of Photography in New York City, the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam and the Museum Moderner Kunst in Vienna. He is a respected figure in Europe, where he has mounted a series of remarkable site-specific installations. He has collaborated with William Wegman and Sol Lewitt and exhibited along side Sigmar Polke and Nan Goldin. But Sal's work remains largely unfamiliar to the American public.
ZONE is presenting a cross section of Sal‚s work, including a chapel-like space of large-scale paintings, using gesso and silk surgical tape, created specifically for this installation. Minimalist yet profoundly humanistic, his work has a handmade look, which carries over into a group of smaller paintings and works on paper.
Sal is intensely aware of the temporal dimension of his work, in general, and this exhibition, in particular. He sees this new year as a "moment when the demarcation of change is upon mankind." and it is the engagement of culture with such conditions that make up the conceptual language of the works created for Re/Vision. These art works refer to their own making and ultimately refer to the tabula rasa of this very important moment. Temperamentally, he has much in common with Terry Riley, the composer of seminal works of musical minimalism such as the serenely joyous "In C". Like Riley, an unassuming figure who never crossed over into mainstream success, Sal works with pared-down idioms, avoiding epic emotions and climaxes, and finding lyrical grace in repetition on an intimate scale. In "Minor/Key" Sal make's an oblique musical reference, isolating an ebony piano key and enshrining it in a box.
While he sees marking as a basic artistic act, Sal also incorporates the natural processes inherent in some of his materials. A celebrated photographer, he uses photo-printing paper to capture light and has revived the cliché- verre technique used by nineteenth-century pioneers in the medium. He slices lead plates and allows them to weather naturally: the veining coalesces into landscape-like patterns. These small, square panels provide a dark counterpoint to the predominantly white works in the exhibition. Using a relatively simple palette, Sal explores a wide range of materials and ideas, offering a fresh vision of the art experience.

mondomedeusah fashion :: Kanye West’s Vuitton Kicks
Kanye West, who was sitting front row at the Vuitton show, has designed a line of five LV sneakers. Only one design, above, was featured in the show — a monochromatic midtop with no frills, save for a quilted flap in the back, all the easier to tuck pants into. “The inspiration came from a jacket with a huge collar in the movie ‘Dune,’ ” West says. “Most sneakers focus on the tongue, so I wanted to do something different.” West knows whereof he speaks: he says he has no idea how many shoes he owns, but he does know that he routinely needs to send shipments off to storage. The LV-meets-Kanye kicks will be available at Louis Vuitton stores in June.
Nature - Paintings by Kazi Ghiyasuddin
now until Jan 31, 2009 // Aakriti Art Gallery // Kolkata, India
If we agree that simplicity is the ultimate form of sophistication, viewing painting's by Kazi Ghiyasuddin, should be an indulgence and a pleasure trip, when following a path of natural abstraction. The artist originates from Bangladesh, but he has influences of the Far Eastern ideals, as his major half of art education had been taken care by that part of the world, which can clarify his visual orientations. As Harou Sanda, an art journalist from Japan puts it, Ghiyasuddin's lyricism by the hue of transparentness and free frame structure with symbolic figures in his works remind us of two great innovators in painting in the twentieth century: Wassily Kandinsky and Paul Klee.

Bill Viola: Installations
now until February 2, 2009 // Haunch of Venison Berlin // Berlin, Germany
Haunch of Venison Berlin presents a series of works from Bill Viola, in his first solo exhibition in Berlin in six years. The exhibition includes the large-scale video/sound installation The Messenger (1996) originally commissioned for Durham Cathedral by the Chaplaincy to the Arts and Recreation, North East England. It depicts the continual rising and sinking of a male figure as he slowly journeys between a blue-black underwater realm and the bright daylight of the world above its surface.
New works will also be presented from the Transfigurations series–a cyclical progression of images that describe a series of encounters at the intersection between life and death. The first in this series was the three channel installation Ocean Without a Shore (2007) created for the 52nd Venice Biennale. In Berlin the works shown will be single and multiple channel pieces, with one piece, Small Saints (2008), using six tiny OLED screens, a new technology with special luminance.
Lisa Adams The Future of Paradise Past
Now until February 14, 2009 // Lawrence Asher Gallery // Los Angeles, CA
Lawrence Asher Gallery is proud to present The Future Of Paradise Past, twelve recent oil paintings by Los Angeles artist Lisa Adams. The exhibition continues Adams’ cautious examination of a possible paradise that contains birds, botanical elements and enigmatic structures. This unfamiliar place offers the viewer an opportunity for Koanlike contemplation.
“Her work’s not so much a process of entropy as imperfection, things don’t become cockedup, things are cockedup right from the start. It’s a message that broaches a spirituality of imperfection. Once it does so, it’s up to the viewer to make peace, find eddies of beauty and serenity, where they can find it, on the canvas and, especially, beyond.”
- James Scarborough, exhibition catalogue.

once again...
Once upon a time someone told me that I couldn’t keep cutting people out, that it was unhealthy to just, take someone out of my life suddenly. At the time I thought he was right. If someone wrongs you, I thought, you can’t just take them out of your life completely, you have to forgive them. If someone is a part of you and you cut them out, what would happen when you cut everyone out? What would you be left with? I had cut people out of my life at the drop of a pin, far too easily. That’s what I thought then, but today I realized that sometimes you HAVE to cut people out. click here to read full post
