I bring song recs (pick whatever ya fancy, or pick 'em all!) :3

Into My Body - Upsahl

Something Comforting - Porter Robinson

Time Escaping - Big Thief

Humans - Super Best Friends Club

Car Keys - Jaguar Sun

Bittersweet - Lianne La Havas

Not necessarily a consistent vibe here - tis a blunderbuss scattershot type of recommendations list :)

send me song recs!

Into My Body by UPSAHL

i looove love upsahl but i hadn't heard this one before!! i absolutely adore it, 10/10, show stopper

Something Comforting by Porter Robinson

very different vibe but another artist that i love. just. everything by. porter robinson you can do nothing wrong (music-wise.) in my eyes. also. tosses this into my sparrow swallows-oak-garcia playlist. its a lil more normal-core to me but i don't have a playlist for him yet, so that works

Time Escaping by Big Thief

uhm. what. i both love and hate this actually. it could grow on me but i just feel lost listening to it rn. i will say though, if you like this song, go listen to Teetah The Cat Lady by Victoria Galinsky. its this absolutely bonkers song that i found through a shitty werewolf movie and its amazing

Humans by Super Best Friends Club

this rules. i might stop lik.e talking in response to these i am kind of sick of closely listening to musicand im starting to feel really overwhelmed. i thought i would get two asks with like one to three songs, why did you guys send several songs. (NOT UR FAULT BTW you and everyone said i dont have to do them all. i just feel the need to do them all. self-inflicted overwhelm) this is a really good song tho i like it

Car Keys by Jaguar Sun

this is pretty good! not my usual thing but im vibing with it, could see myself tossing it on a ship playlist and getting really intensely obsessed with it via that

Bittersweet by Lianne La Havas

very pretty song!! its a little too slow for me, but she has a really really nice voice. i especially love when it gets a lil more intense and she sings louder, i think its at the bridge? so so good

best tv, movies, & music of 2020

If I leaned into one hobby during this trashfire of a year, it was consuming media. Me and my poor little astigmatized eyes observed a rigorous nightly schedule of Netflix and chill, Hulu and disassociate, Starz and eternal scream, etc., etc.

I never ever do this but maybe I'll start doing it yearly. Here are my favorite things I watched and listened to in 2020, in no particular order. (And if something you loved isn’t here, that’s okay! Different tastes, but also, there are a lot of new things I skipped, especially shows with dark themes or lots of violence.)

Television

Betty, season 1 (HBO)

Water with cucumber and lime. Stepping across an autumn leaf-littered sidewalk in thick-soled boots. Lying on a floatie in a pool mid-summer. In the same vein, Betty refreshes. Based on Crystal Moselle’s Skate Kitchen, Betty serializes the adventures of a group of energetic and beautiful gen Z girls trying to take a bite out of New York City’s men-dominated skateboard scene. The series is sweet and naturalistic, and deftly handles issues of family strife, workplace racism, and sexual assault. It was an oasis in a year of overwhelm.

Vida, season 3 (Starz)

I’ve loved Vida from season 1 but it took the panny for me to sit down and get caught up. Vida follows two estranged sisters who move back to East LA to run their mother’s bar after her sudden death. I often disagree with the show’s politics (e.g., its ethos is more pro-gentrification than not, the utter lack of Afro-Latinx cast members); nevertheless, Vida handles issues of legacy, intimacy, and queer identity with tenderness. Mishel Prada is mesmerizing in her portrayal of Emma, who finally lets love in. This is by far the most underrated show of the decade.

P-Valley, season 1 (Starz)

One of the rules of Mississippi strip club The Pynk? No motherfucking chips! This specificity and humor is all up and through P-Valley. Creator Katori Hall’s world is so well-built that you can almost feel the club’s dim interior and lithe dancers. Mercedes, a tough veteran dancer trying hard to leave The Pynk, and the club’s proprietor, non-binary femme sensation Uncle Clifford, are engaging, charismatic leads. Unapologetically Black and southern, P-Valley is critically acclaimed for good reason and I can’t wait for season 2.

Almost made the list: The Flight Attendant (HBO Max), How to with John Wilson (HBO)

Movies

Palm Springs (Hulu)

I’ve always had a little crush on Andy Samberg because he’s extremely good at his job--being funny. Yes, he’s funny in this film, and he also perfectly reflects the weariness and nihilism of millennials today. Cristin Milioti is an excellent co-lead who uses her large eyes to express at turns annoyance, excitement, and pain. A film about reliving the same day, every day, was kind of cruel to watch during the heart of my quarantine, but Palm Springs was a sumptuous, romantic companion.

Disclosure (Netflix)

I really don’t like when media about marginalized groups is billed as “much needed” or “powerful”. It’s patronizing and flattens the creator’s artistic vision. So, I won’t use that language but I will acknowledge how much I learned from Disclosure and how affecting it was. It offers a deep dive into representations of trans folks in mainstream media and is extremely well-edited and cohesive. Importantly, it was produced by trans people and directed by trans filmmaker Sam Feder. Watch it.

The Old Guard (Netflix)

There was a joke floating around on Twitter about how a lot of women never thought we liked action movies until we saw The Old Guard, then we realized, oh, we just need to see women in instrumental roles! Beyond Charlize Theron’s layered performance as an immortal baddie, the story is inventive and engrossing. The Old Guard is super rewatchable and a lot of fun.

Almost made the list: I’m Thinking of Ending Things (Netflix), On the Record (HBO Max), Tender, Onward

Music

Favorite albums

Jaguar

Victoria Monét is a star. Maybe it’s because I’m in my thirties but I had never heard of her before my friend urged me to listen to Jaguar (shoutout to Kayla, thank you, Kayla!). I like my R&B warm and well-written and cozy. Victoria’s voice is smooth and polished and evokes the sensuality of jazz singers from the 30s. When she croons “had a feeling we would take it this far / when you kissed me in your car”, it’s easy to tell why Kehlani fell for her. This is, as they say, an album with no skips.

Suga & Good News

Megan Thee Stallion’s year was marred by a horrible event--she was shot. And then, social media trolls did their best to blame her for the shooting because the curse of being a Black woman is that we are never allowed to be victims. Even still, she bookmarked either side of that event with an EP, Suga, and her first full-length album Good News. They are strong projects (although I prefer Suga) because our girl is as clever and versatile as ever, constantly one-upping herself and her featured artists with rhyme after rhyme. Hotties rejoice, the champ is here to stay.

Ungodly Hour

Chloe x Halle have cemented their status as Those Girls. Ungodly Hour is a near-perfect album and showcases their startlingly beautiful harmonies and earwormy, haunting lyrics. This album was a key piece of fuel as I hammered away at my dissertation prospectus this summer. I would wiggle my shoulders in time with “Do It”, belt out “Tipsy”, and ignore the catch in my throat when “Lonely” was on. Importantly, Chloe and Halle are settling into adulthood and the darker themes on this project reflect that. Believers and skeptics alike, Ungodly Hour is for you.

Almost made the list: Carly Rae Jepsen - Dedicated Side B, Emily King - Sides, Jessie Ware - What’s Your Pleasure?

Favorite tracks

Cardi B ft. Megan Thee Stallion - “WAP”

“Gobble me, swallow me, drip down the side of me”-- Do I need to go on???

Aminé - “Compensating”

Aminé is attractive and competent and so is this single. It’s the perfect summer track.

Giveon - “Heartbreak Anniversary”

His voice haunts me. When I first heard Giveon, I looked up as if to ask who is that? He’s model-beautiful and his deep baritone lingers in the room after the song ends.

Jessie Ware - “Ooh La La”

I have loved Jessie Ware since her first album Devotion, which was firmly R&B. This single and accompanying album are disco/funk territory. “Ooh La La” is uplifting and well-suited to Jessie’s warm soprano.

Flight of the Concours

I can’t speak for all auto scribes, but it seems to me once you’ve been writing long enough, interest in your automotive literary out-put, adventures, and car news tends to wane among family and friends.

“I’ve just returned from driving D-type Jaguars overland to the Bosphorus with Jackie Stewart, Henry Kissinger, and Linda Vaughn co-driving,” you might apprise a loved one. Only for them to weigh the information thoughtfully and ask, “Have you seen my phone charger?”

It’s one of the reasons that concours make such fine forums for automotive journalists. Like Capitol Hill reporters rubbing shoulders with congressional staffers, car writers find themselves in the presence of many who not only care about cars but who might have actually once read something they’d penned, unlike in, say, the real world.

That’s one reason I accepted the generous invitation of South Carolina’s Hilton Head Island Motoring Festival and Concours d’Elegance to attend its 16th annual event. Ogling the fine field of American and foreign classics (with Cadillac as the honored marque) was another. It made my first trip to the island worthwhile on a car-spotting basis alone. An impressive 1934 Cadillac Victoria Convertible Coupe took Best of Show, but a 1939 Cadillac Series 61 Opera Coupe, finished in two-tone green, won my heart.

A day earlier on a field filled with some of the best the local club scene had to offer, I’d also been startled to find myself standing in front of my beautiful green 1971 Mercedes-Benz 300 SEL 6.3, last seen by me when I sold it in 2009. It’s in even better condition than when I de-acquisitioned it thinking it was too pristine for the likes of me to drive. Memories of the old Benz’s titanic thrust came rushing back, followed shortly by shiver-inducing visions of 12 mpg and bi-annual hose and belt replacement bills running into the four figures.

Hilton Head wasn’t always a resort destination, but it’s always been rich in history. Native Americans came first, before Huguenots, Spaniards, and Britons arrived. Its Port Royal became a major Atlantic port in the Sea Island cotton trade and the slave economy of the South. In 1861, it fell to the Union army. As the area’s plantation owners fled, many of their slaves stayed behind. Union Gen. Ormsby Mitchel helped them establish a self-governing community there, named Mitchelville after him. But following the defeat of the Confederacy, much of the land was returned to those same former plantation owners.

It was a lot to think about as the concours weekend began with a classic-car driving tour Friday. Behind the wheel of a 1971 1800E—supplied by South Carolina’s newest automotive citizen, Volvo—the tour visited the site of Mitchelville, gone now but celebrated in an interactive presentation of word, song, and the Gullah culture. A mixture of English and African dialects, Gullah, still spoken by an elite few, is the language of former slaves who lived in the band of low country running along the rice-growing coast from South Carolina to Georgia.

Later, I’d catch a ride in the jump seat of a 1929 Ford Model A roadster belonging to Michael Hamby Jr. and his new bride, Sharon, who won the concours’ best dressed award, a nice cap on a honeymoon spent attending the event. The 30-something Hamby showed his car alongside an A coupe belonging to his father. The two Fords had been kept as a pair in the same garage for decades before going their separate ways. The Hambys later reunited them. Hamby is the sort of collector the hobby needs in much greater numbers if it is to thrive. As it stands, it’s mostly a bunch of old, wealthy folk. When they’re gone, the cars have to go somewhere.

Speaking of going somewhere, the highlight of this landlubber’s old car idyll came when I caught a lift from New York to Hilton Head in a Cirrus Vision Jet. A new breed of single-engine craft, it’s an SUV for the sky. Its price tag of $2.5 million is a bargain compared to the $24.5 million Gulfstream G280 shown Friday night at the concours’ Flights & Fancy Aeroport Gala charity fundraiser. Any self-respecting concours seems to have an aviation partner nowadays.

It was easily the most exhilarating flight of my life. As an extra measure of safety, a built-in parachute is standard equipment. An incredible feature, I began to explain, just as one young relation wondered aloud, “Where did you say you put that charger?”

English Artist Benedict Radcliffe Wired with Passion

In the opening scene of “Who Framed Roger Rabbit,” Roger stars opposite a sweet, monosyllabic Baby Herman in the animated short, “Something’s Cooking.” Roger flubs his part, the scene is cut, and Herman becomes a garrulous curmudgeon, screaming blue murder at the rabbit before storming off the cartoon set and into the grimy studio lot, possibly in search of a Montecristo No. 2. That moment when Herman and his chubby, watercolor backside waddle into the real world was an absolute mind-bender for children like me at the time.

Today, looking at photographs of English artist Benedict Radcliffe’s automotive wireframe sculptures, the same fuse has blown. An ethereal, gleaming white Toyota Corolla being lifted and carried into a truck by six men, one of whom seems to be at once inside and outside the car. A black London taxi driving past a fluorescent orange outline of the same that seems superimposed but somehow casts a shadow. A hot-pink Range Rover Evoque that looks more hologram than solid matter, and a dayglo Lamborghini Countach that pierces the humdrum of an everyday street scene as an oblivious pigeon pads by. It’s abstract meets everyday, and it’s absolutely stunning.

Specializing in a kind of augmented reality, Benedict Radcliffe builds wireframe car sculptures that capture the essence of the originals.

Amazingly, all this visual chicanery springs from plain old steel rod and a bit of paint. To find out how, I visit Radcliffe’s London studio—an unremarkable, graffitied industrial unit on a quiet East End street, inside which the alchemy takes place. When Radcliffe first took over the space, he filled it with a bright pink skate park commissioned for a shoe launch. Now he lives in the loft, and the main space below is dominated by a huge “datum table” where his wireframe sculptures take shape. Hanging on one side, there’s a comically outsized bicycle frame, and the opposite wall is plastered with full-scale blueprints of a Ferrari F40. By the door sits a white wireframe Honda Gold Wing he displayed at the city’s prestigious Victoria and Albert Museum in 2012.

Chatting in the studio’s kitchen, Radcliffe explains where it all began. While studying at Glasgow’s Mackintosh School of Architecture, he was trained in fabrication and welding by Andy Scott, creator of many landmark installations including “The Kelpies,” a pair of 100-foot horse’s heads sculpted in metal that tower over one of Scotland’s main highways. A year after graduating in 2004, Radcliffe created “Modern Japanese Classic”—a white wireframe Subaru Impreza P1—as part of a personal exhibition. Too large to fit inside the venue, it was “parked” on the street outside, dazzling among the dank, weathered masonry of Glasgow’s city center. With that, his signature style was born.

Most pieces have been 1:1 scale, but he’s also produced smaller works of late, building a 1:6 Toyota Celica Mk7 on skateboard wheels for Mai Ikuzawa, daughter of Le Mans and Formula 2 racer and team owner Tetsu Ikuzawa. Yet he’s not afraid to go large, either: A life-sized JCB JS200 tracked excavator wireframe now sits at the plant manufacturer’s headquarters in England, and a 20-foot-long, six-wheeled Komatsu mining truck is now taking shape at a bigger facility elsewhere.

“It’s quite straightforward—cutting, welding, and grinding—but it’s the manipulation of the steel rod I’m drawing with that is really important.”

But the process remains fairly consistent, regardless of size. Radcliffe collates technical drawings and photographs from the internet, then traces out front, side, and rear elevations by hand to the required scale. It’s far from a simple case of copying what he sees, though. Even at this early stage, deft artistic wit is called for as he distills the vehicle’s form into key features that “capture the shape of the car with an economy of line,” as he neatly puts it. He uses just one gauge of steel rod for each sculpture—0.12 inch on small pieces and usually 0.39 inch on 1:1s—which means he recreates a highly complex, multisurfaced solid form using only what to all intents and purposes is a single, bendable cylinder of metal.

Radcliffe eschews computer-aided design and 3D-printed prototypes in favor of a manual process, literally building on his sketches.

“Everything I do is quite low-tech,” he says. “I’ll start with the blueprints, then extrude up from the plan. I might concentrate on the front bumper first, then the back bumper and the light clusters, building in components. It’s quite straightforward metalwork—cutting, welding, and grinding—but it’s the manipulation of the steel rod I’m drawing with that is really important.”

A homemade (and quite secret) apparatus helps Radcliffe bend the wire, and although a temporary grid is built to help keep the proportions correct, there’s improvisation to the building process, too: little changes here and there, cutting out and replacing lengths of rod, and experimenting with forms until he’s happy with the result. Pointing out the two mismatched loops that form each door mirror on Izukawa’s Celica, he elaborates: “These mirrors are quite abstract, but if I’d just had one loop, they would have looked two-dimensional. A second loop gives more form and depth.”

The Komatsu excavator sculpture weighs just a fraction of the real thing but still tips the scales at 3,300 pounds.

Radcliffe gets some help when it comes to the megasculptures—for example, fabrication of the 100 identical loops that make up the JCB’s tracks were outsourced after he created the master—but otherwise he does all the work himself, including the welding (TIG on the small sculptures, MIG on the rest). It’s often frustrating work—when heat from the welding gun distorts the metal, for instance—but once things start to take shape, it becomes a joy.

“The trick is to make them look simple, but they’re actually quite tricky. Not everyone has the patience,” he acknowledges, “but it’s actually really good fun. After about two months, once I’ve done all the hard work, I can experiment with how to do stuff. Someone might come from an engineer’s point of view and do it differently, but I can go a bit free-form and be more playful.”

The pink Celica and a white BMW E30 M3 Evolution (also 1:6 scale) took almost as long to build as the 10 to 16 weeks required to make a full-scale car, partly due to their intricacy. “You’ve got more steel to mess around with on the big ones, so you can make more mistakes,” Radcliffe says. “The small ones are really fiddly, and it’s difficult to get the welder in.”

The magic is all in the bending of the steel rod.

And the smaller the sculpture, the more the thickness of the paint has an effect on the visual gravity of the finished article. Radcliffe usually spray-paints, but the Celica and M3 were powder coated due to their diminutive size, which bulked them up and produced a tougher look versus the naked wireframe.

So, to retain more detail, Radcliffe kept the 0.12-inch rod but moved up to 1:5 scale for his subsequent project, a Lancia Delta Integrale Evoluzione. Unpainted, without wheels, and up on temporary stilts, it is not yet finished but is utterly mesmerizing in its accuracy, from hood bulges and box wheel arches to the tiny Lancia shield on the nose and the distinctive rear-wing mounts. A rare concession to technology is the MDF jig Radcliffe had made by a CNC router to help form the Lancia’s intricate, 18-spoke wheels, but he can be forgiven for that; they’re shrunk from 15 inches across to just 3.

The intricacy of Radcliffe’s work is even more apparent in his 1:6-scale sculptures, which have to capture the key details with even less steel.

Examining the Delta, my instinct is to click and drag a mouse to rotate the digital-looking form in front of me. The fact you can actually move around it, or even pick it up and hold it in your hand, is a genuine wonder.

In contrast, the towering JCB and Komatsu are edificial—at 3,300 pounds, the latter weighs 10 times as much as a full-scale car wireframe—and required more of an engineering-focused approach to accommodate their trusses and overhangs. He says these creations, which are built piece by piece in component form, are more about structural integrity than playfulness and line—yet he still likens them to big Lego bricks.

You’ve probably gathered that Radcliffe’s clients are eclectic to say the least, with corporate patrons such as Toyota, Jaguar Land Rover, and Nike, the latter for whom he built a giant wireframe Air Max shoe. Other projects include a Citroën DS-style hovercar from the “Judge Dredd” comics that was commissioned by a toy shop in London, and in 2014 Heathrow Airport bought one of his orange London taxis to make a vivid centerpiece for the departure lounge in Terminal 2. As is the art world’s way, pricing is fluid, but Heathrow paid around $130,000. That early Subaru P1 went to a collector for $30,000, while the Countach that Radcliffe sold privately in 2008 went under RM Sotheby’s hammer six years later for $116,500.

Never one to shy away from a challenge, Radcliffe is working on a 1:5-scale sculpture of the dauntingly complex Lancia Delta Integrale Evoluzione.

But you get the distinct feeling fiscal concerns are more a means than an end—a way for Radcliffe to keep doing the work he loves. He’s chomping at the bit to finish the little Integrale (it’s going to be painted brilliant white), while the 1:1 Ferrari F40 is next and will grace the Classic Car Club Manhattan’s cavernous riverside clubhouse in Hell’s Kitchen. I ask what else he’d choose to build, which prompts a flurry of glossy car book pages and various printouts. He admired the “democratic” attainability of the Impreza, and the people’s champion theme continues with the Peugeot 205 GTI, but Porsche features, too, as a Kremer Racing 935 and modified 911 from Japanese outfit RWB are also on the wish list. And then there’s the Ferrari 288 GTO: “Oh my God, those wheel arches! Absolutely filthy!”

And with those words, Radcliffe explains why his work gets gearheads frothing at the brain: He is one, too.

Frontline Image TV Show

SEMA 2016 was the introduction (pilot) the viewing public had of my production idea for a TV show called "Frontline Image" and I would like to continue providing more coverage of our local car scene. SHAW-TV meeting I had in Victoria yesterday was a success. Stay tuned!

The Lake Cowichan A&W car show is coming up in September!!

August 2017

Introduction into the automotive world. I felt I can continue being part of that world and could provide the viewers of SHAW-TV a show that market or the local scene. So I created SEMA2016 as a pilot project for a locally produced TV Car Show “Frontline Image”.

“SEMA 2016” was the introduction to the viewing public of this production idea and I would like to continue providing more coverage of the local scene with SHAW-TV.

Now, I want to shape my own program from there; it will be exciting and people will want to return and tune in....I realize that tuning in is the trick- the more people that tune in, the more advertising dollars you can potentially secure.

Depending on, of course, your medium....if it is on cable than that is different than gathering likes and people that want to watch on You Tube, so far I have recorded 360 views of the SEMA2016 on Youtube, that is insignificant to most other shows but give it time and it will develop into a greater following. ....It is a wonderful low dollar way of creating content.

What else?

I bring content by doing Invus with car market SMEs (subject matter experts) and car aficionados. Plus. people attending as part of a local automotive community, car club presidents, past show coordinators such as Al Clark (Deuce Days), and retired builders like Rudi Koniczek

I fill the need for a Vancouver Island based automotive specific show produced locally and inexpensively. I will hosting this show plus will have a role in the show’s creative process.

My concept remains as a show that covers all the different local automotive-related scenes. and developed into segments around 5 minutes long depending on the subject content.

Each episode is independent, Each descriptively titled and in one of the following categories:

1). an automotive event

a the organizers, and

b participants,

c the why of it - is it a charity

2). local shop that specializes in:

a automotive-specific service, ie locally fabricated parts

3). visit the regular home garage to talk about owner’s car.

4). feature tuning involved

a) inflating tires how-to

b) episode for move on from there.

Frontlne Image is about engaging with people, the local car shows and

-covering autocross,

drifting and other track- specific stuff,

emergency vehicles, military and much more.

That is the focus of this show. There is much to see on the island and we willhave episodes on touring the Island! Here are shows that are broadcast that are about cars about the people and the community connections. That is the focus of this show.

Equipment required: The show can be recorded with IPhone, digital camera, and computer, under the concept of going on location, and record the owners and their vehicles. Later, editing can be performed at home or in studio with the Final Cut Pro10

Currently, the line-up of three shows will be as follows:

1. Invu with Stew Young and the Langford Car Show

2. Motorgathering 2017 in Lake Cowichan

3. Lake Cowichan A&W Car Show

With at least one other car show on standby should one of these above not pan out as expected.

Thank you!

English Artist Benedict Radcliffe Wired with Passion

Specializing in a kind of augmented reality, Benedict Radcliffe builds wireframe car sculptures that capture the essence of the originals.

“It’s quite straightforward—cutting, welding, and grinding—but it’s the manipulation of the steel rod I’m drawing with that is really important.”

Radcliffe eschews computer-aided design and 3D-printed prototypes in favor of a manual process, literally building on his sketches.

The Komatsu excavator sculpture weighs just a fraction of the real thing but still tips the scales at 3,300 pounds.

The magic is all in the bending of the steel rod.

The intricacy of Radcliffe’s work is even more apparent in his 1:6-scale sculptures, which have to capture the key details with even less steel.

Never one to shy away from a challenge, Radcliffe is working on a 1:5-scale sculpture of the dauntingly complex Lancia Delta Integrale Evoluzione.

And with those words, Radcliffe explains why his work gets gearheads frothing at the brain: He is one, too.
