Gallery interview Couture Cakes to Crave
August 17, 2010 - 9:45 am
“Everyone loves dessert. You could be the worst cook ever but if you pull through with dessert, you will always be popular,” states Claire Thomas, food stylist, personal chef, food photographer, blogger for The Kitchy Kitchen, and couture dolly cake baker. “I grew up always having these super wacky cakes around just because my mom is sort of an eccentric baker, as is my aunt – with both of them together, every birthday was crazy,” explains Claire Thomas as she escorts me into her kitchen at her family’s home in Brentwood. Once we arrive, sitting on the table is a China Shop inspired dolly cake – a blonde Barbie doll with frosted blue hair wearing a ball gown that is in the process of being decorated with pieces of broken white chocolate tiles in a blue and white broken china motif. Claire’s mother soon passed through the kitchen to which Claire affectionately exclaimed, “She’s the one who started this whole mess.”

Fashion Featured Bloodmilk: Supernatural Jewels For Surrealist Darlings
July 19, 2010 - 12:02 pm
Miss Schnabel of Bloodmilk is not your average jeweler. You won’t see diamond engagement rings, mass-produced pendants or hoop earrings in her collection. Instead, she believes that jewelry provides “psychic armour.” Her work is thoughtful, & exquisitely strange.
If the love of your life is more a fan of the Brothers Grimm than Jon & Kate Plus 8, maybe a Bloodmilk bear tooth engagement ring is what she’s always dreamed of. Perhaps a sterling silver ouija planchette necklace is more her cup of tea. This is jewelery worn by unusual girls, the type who read tarot cards & prefer absinthe & wouldn’t be caught dead in Urban Outfitters. From two-finger owl skull rings to sparrow claw lariat necklaces, Bloodmilk pieces are dark but delicate, beautiful & obscene.
interview Fitz (and The Tantrums) Talks About His Organ
June 28, 2010 - 3:38 pm
Fitz & The Tantrums have such an enchanting story…where ex-lovers become sources of inspiration, living rooms turn into cutting-edge recording studios, and tattoo artists become heroes. I got to hear it first-hand on Thursday as I sat in the hallway of the Dangerbird Records headquarters with Fitz himself for a quick interview before he had to run off to take the stage at Silver Lake’s “Hipster Haven” aka Spaceland. It was a delightful little interview. We were offered ice cream mid-conversation and at one point Fitz was even asked to serve as an interim security guard in the absence of the guest list girl.
interview Q and A With Manchester’s Delphic
June 24, 2010 - 10:42 am
Thursday night, Manchester’s own Delphic took the outdoor stage at Dangerbird Records to bestow the crowd below with the urge to dance. After a set perfectly infused with a wreath of synth, guitar, vocals, and drums, the boys headed backstage to relax, while coyly avoiding the crowd gathered around the television that was showing the last quarter of the Lakers game. It’s OK guys, we all know that “football” is the thing in the UK and doing an interview for China Shop over watching Kobe Bryant was a good enough excuse for me.
Film Hellion Cat: A Crispin Glover Interview
June 1, 2009 - 8:53 am
Crispin Hellion Glover is perhaps best known for his whimsical roles in films such as Back to the Future or Charlie’s Angels or his creepy roles in movies like The Wizard of Gore. But when his bizarre charisma is not being utilized in front of the camera, Crispin is hard at work on his own film projects. In fact, his fans who know him from mainstream movies might be surprised to learn that he has spent more than a decade working on a series of art films that have played film festivals worldwide and been seen at special screening events. He prefers to screen his movies in a special setting in which Crispin may read his poetry or provide a performance art piece. The first feature was What is it? and featured a cast comprised mostly of actors with Down’s syndrome. The second in the series, It is fine! Everything is fine! stars cerebral palsy-afflicted Steven C. Stewart who provides a welcome charm within the film’s strange series of events.
