This week’s music is lippy kids performed at the Rock Werchter Festival by elbow.

Last week Don’t Panic interviewed photographer Jasmin Schuller about her latest project, Sweet Meat.  In the Sweet Meat series Schuller creates delicious looking desserts from raw meat.

It was about this time last year when I first featured Janet Lage’s artwork.  Her Hose Me series is now on exhibit at Brown University until September 30th.  

I am back from vacation and needing some get work done music in my  listening queue.  This week’s song, by Birdy Nam Nam, is a faster paced digital rocker, Love Your Enemy (Kill Your Friend) from the album Manual for Successful Rioting.

Over the weekend, many different outlets shared views of the September 11 tragedy. Artists have also expressed their feelings over the years and Googling for artist 9/11 tributes will return thousands of works.

Ben Grasso’s paintings portray architectural structures, which resemble wooden houses from his home town, undergoing a deconstruction/reconstruction process. These homes are torn from their foundations and lifted high into the air where they are reborn into new, dramatic and beautiful forms.

This week’s song pick is, Your Past Life as a Blast by Okkervil River.  

Thomas Hawk is a “photography factory” trying to publish 1,000,000 finished, processed photographs before he dies.  With a goal like this, you can imagine the range of imagery in his collection.  The number of photographs in Hawk’s collection is stagering as he documents life around him. 

This week’s amazing song, White Owl, is from Josh Garrels’ latest album Love & War & the Sea in Between.
