Ladies and Gentlemen, The Sex Pistols:
A cheap holiday in other people’s misery!
I don’t wanna holiday in the sun
I wanna go to new Belsen
I wanna see some history
‘Cause now I got a reasonable economy
Now I got a reason, now I got a reason
Now I got a reason and I’m still waiting
Now I got a reason
Now I got reason to be waiting
The Berlin Wall
Sensurround sound in a two-inch wall
Well I was waiting for the communist call
I dared to ask for sunshine, and I got World War III
I’m looking over the wall and they’re looking at me!
Now I got a reason, now I got a reason
Now I got a reason and I’m still waiting
Now I got a reason
Now I got a reason to be waiting
The Berlin Wall
An interview with the cinematographer George Itzhak @nisan__nisan__ about his documentary short Waiting for the Sea on Stihia, an electronic music festival in Uzbekistan’s Aral Sea.
Under the Soviet Union’s policies, this rich body of water fed the main rivers used to irrigate cotton crops, until it began to dry up. Today, the Aral Sea has receded more than 150 kilometers, leaving behind the port city of Muynak on the shores of a desert covered in sand and salt.

Somehow I got to conduct one of the last interviews with Giorgio Armani. I got to hear before anyone else that he treasured the Aeolian Islands, that Pantelleria was one of his most beloved homes, that the beautiful estate he built on it was his most prized refuge. What he built wasn’t merely a house with a view, it was his capacity to inspire by taking what’s natural and extending it into something genuine, sophisticated, and timeless that will live on for centuries to come. Thank you @icon.america
