From a blog by an insect for food enthusiast Shoichi Uchiyama. He just published a cook book on creating Japanese food with a little more... crunch. His blog is filled with startling photos of every day Japanese dishes with that bit of bite size protein. Some parts of the world might consider these insects a normal part of a meal. But Uchiyama understands that the gut reaction for most people (including the Japanese) for these critters on their plates are their worst fears coming to life. Still, reading his blog, he seems passionate about changing those perceptions. Hats off to a Herculean task ahead.








For more about him and his new cook book, check out English articles from the Telegraph and Japan Times.

kotama bouabane: melting words.: "


I’m loving the work of fellow Torontonian Kotama Bouabane. I dig how the iced words, already beginning to melt, echo the hollowness of the ostensibly genuine sentiments they spell out. Even the grandest words can slowly fade away…

Vivid photographs by Solve Sundsbo.

sølve sundsbø: perroquet.: "


Inspired by nature documentaries and science photography, fashion photographer Sølve Sundsbø created ‘Parroquet’, a series of photographs and short videos exploring the sleek, mutli-hued avian beauty of the parroquet, a type of long-tailed parrot. Presented by SHOWStudio, the pictures are stunningly beautiful. Interesting how nature and evolution have created a palette of colour as gorgeous as, arguably more gorgeous than, any art created by human hands.






The only thing more beautiful that the photographs are the eight videos; little slow-motion epics of the perroquets in flight. The colours are so deep and brilliant it’s almost hard to believe that they’re only feathers.
