Her voice must be sore
Smiths Project: Janice Whaley sings entire catalog.....looks like she is finally done
Salim Baba - handmade portable cinema cart
Checked out director Tim Sternberg’s beautiful short documentary Salim Baba. The film looks at one man’s love of cinema and his attempt to maintain a family tradition in the face of technological advancements. Salim Muhammad lives in Kolkata, India where he pushes a handmade portable cinema cart around town for the local kids to watch cut-up versions of Bollywood action scenes and dance sequences. It’s a tradition that was passed down to him by his father and one which he will pass on to his own sons. Not only is this short beautifully shot and edited, but it captures a love of film — through both the subject and the craft of the documentary, itself — and perfectly represents the importance of maintaining cultural traditions, be it through Salim’s family-run movie cart or India’s relationship with cinema.
The film was nominated for an Academy Award in 2008 in the best short documentary category. It’s also worth noting that the film is produced by Scott Mosier (along with Francisco Bell–who also served as cinematographer–and Raja Dey), who’s probably best known for his work with Kevin Smith (most recently as co-host of their hilarious podcast, Smodcast). Check out the film posted in its entirety at the top of this post.

Decaying & saddness
Never thought I could feel real sadness for concrete and a city...but look at poor old Detroit....it was once a grand and beautiful place....how could they let it decay? Thirty-five per cent of the inner city has become uninhabitable. See all pictures and article here
Ansonia Hotel was one of the finest in downtown Detroit
The United Artists Theater, opened in 1928, had a Spanish-gothic atmosphere as dramatic as anything onstage. Between 1978 and 1983 the Detroit Symphony used it as a recording studio.
The pressing room at Donovan House, where Motown Records was once based. The label, founded in Detroit by Berry Gordy, Jr., in 1959, became known as "Hitsville USA" thanks to artists like Stevie Wonder, The Supremes, The Jackson Five and Marvin Gaye. The photographers even found documents here signed by Gaye.
The Mayan pyramids of Chichén Itzá were the inspiration for the Vanity Ballroom, which hosted Duke Ellington and Cab Calloway in the '30s and '40s. In the '60s it became (briefly) a rock venue, hosting The Stooges and MC5.
