Great short from the The Avant/Garde Diaries series, with blogger Peter Henderson talking about The Barbican, one of my favourite places in London.
Mapster
I’ve no idea what Herb Lester Associates actually do all day long, but evidently it involves drinking coffee, wandering around a bit and making amazing maps of London and New York. I have both You Are Here (a map of the best places in London for freelancers to get free wifi, good coffee and be left alone) and Wish You Were There (a map of long lost ’60s LDN), and I love them both. I shall no doubt be getting their newest, the self-explanitory How To Find Old New York in time for my next visit to NYC. I suggest you do the same by clicking here.

Two beautiful short films made by US journalist Richard Hernandez. Atmospheric in a cool/creepy/disturbing/brilliant way. The second, The Fifty Four, was made using only his iPhone. Stunning.
