I scream, you scream, but there’s no cream in vegan ice cream
Deep, decadent, delightful. The idea of sitting at home, and nursing a tub of ice cream (or just a cup, for lesser beings) is one that is intricately linked to indulgence. Something that isn’t necessarily associated with veganism. And yet, here I am, seven tubs in (clearly I am no lesser being), and I am…
Get intimate with nudes.jpg, a part of Festival of Women, N.O.W.
Long gone are the days of legendary 90s Neoprint photo booths. Even in the tiny, whitewashed, claustrophobic space that they offered, they exuded a boxed sense of privacy when you stepped in, and posed your face off. It is a similar sense of comfortable privacy that you might have felt if you had stepped into…
Play Button: Our mid-year playlist
In May, we got bombarded with creativity and talent that wore its unmistakable voice like giant flags.

Play Button: Our April 2021 playlist
April’s sound is fierce and independent, with one key message: Reclaim the narrative and make it yours. The world is far from returning to what we called ‘normal’. Thankfully, neither are we stuck in what has been called the ‘new normal’. (Not yet, anyway.) So here’s to another month of the beauty of audio entertainment…
Anthony Hopkins in The Father: Dementia like you’ve never seen it portrayed
Anthony Hopkins puts on the performance of a lifetime in The Father, a film about the unknown terrors of dementia that many of us grapple with understanding. One of the reasons why dementia is so deeply terrifying is because all we can do is watch as it plays out; with pity, with anger, with patience,…
Seaspiracy documentary says screw sustainability
British filmmaker Ali Tabrizi’s Seaspiracy is sensational from the get-go. It is not the gory 2000s brainwashing that PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) had gotten us used to at one point. But what it is is a boatload of statistics framed in an effective narrative that seeks to make one point to…
