sparklehorse & danger mouse plus david lynch

When I first heard about the exhibit, it seemed like a hipster dream come true: A musical collaboration between Sparklehorse and Danger Mouse that blossomed into a full-size photography exhibit with David Lynch’s so called “visual interpretations” of the hypnotic album.  Nevertheless, as a Lynch fan myself, I decided to experience it firsthand and I recommend you do the same.
The history of the exhibit is unwieldy: Danger Mouse and Sparklehorse stumbled into a musical partnership, creating an album of instrumental tracks and then roping in artists such as Iggy Pop and James Mercer to set lyrics to the music.  A tug-of-war with Danger Mouse’s label, EMI, resulted in the album, Dark Night of the Soul,  being locked in legal limbo- it has yet to be released to the public.  Not to fear: the die-hard fans can get a preview of the music by going to the exhibit.
Lucky for you, we have a sample here.

Difusor


I just came upon this site while looking up the sheep to human ratio in Iceland. If you’re curious, there are twice as many sheep as there are people. Anyways, difusor covers a great selection of graffiti artists in the Barcelona area as well as hosts galleries and such. If you’re in that area anytime soon drop these guys a line and I’m sure they’ll show you a great time.
