When you vote above the line, you are actually giving whomsoever gets your one vote absolute power over where you vote is directed. This often means your vote might swing through a raft of lesser known and morally reprehensible extremist parties faster than you can say "I don't like it." Make sure you know your stuff before fulfilling your constitutional duty.
If you want to experience real America, there's nothing stopping you. But will you have as much fun as when you are in a tourist playground? The sad reality is that although we might think we want to expand our horizons, experience foreign culture and revel in the different, we spend the large majority of our travel time and money in tourist havens that are unmistakably the antithesis of what we like to think travel is about.
The Austin-tatiously named Castle in Austin is famous for its unique street art adorned walls of concrete. Situated below what does indeed appear to be a modern castle, there is the unfinished structure of some building or other that for reasons unknown has been left as a canvas for those who use the spray can as their artistic instrument.
Some things in a city are popular because they are fun. Others attain a following due to their inherent and newly acquired brilliance. Still, others reach a higher status. They become an institution. So it goes with Guildford’s famous burger establishment, Alfred’s Kitchen.
At only 34 minutes long, you’d probably be thinking you’ve been swindled something a la Keyser Soze, but what you’re getting is 34 minutes of pure good music; which is probably what you’d get on a normal 50-60 minute record anyway. The music is real, and the album is a real gem.
One of the big hype bands to come out of the new music wave at the end of 2012, the London duo’s release was highly anticipated, to say the least. Off the back of singles ‘Attracting Flies’ and ‘Your Drums, Your Love’ the sweet, smooth voice of Aluna Francis neatly blended with George Reid’s polyrhythmic blend of dubstep, pop and house (among many)...
Just as “Sound Awake” was a departure from their 2005 debut “Themata”, “Asymmetry” is a step forward from “Sound Awake”; embracing the progressive side of metal even more so than its predecessor. The band has constructed a set of songs of immense sonic depth and diversity.
Lynch, as do most good artists, carries a very particular style throughout all of his work. Be it music, film, painting or sculpture you can generally tell that something is his through its lynchian traits if you will. This album is no exception...
The Conjuring is the latest horror film from Melbourne-born and educated film-maker James Wan. Wan began his career in cinema with his budget horror film Saw (2004) which lead to the creation of one of the most financially successful horror franchises of all time.
It’s important to be reminded that if tourism continues on as it currently does places like Bali and Manilla-which are unrecognisable from what made them so popular-will only be lands of cheap food, goods, and sex, rather than gateways to another culture.
Walking down one of Key West's major historical streets I spy an old abandoned shack. Naturally the place piqued my interest. It's not everyday you get to explore the remnants of a Caribbean construction.
The Final Member is a curious little documentary which focuses on an Icelandic man who has the distinction of being the curator of the world’s only penis museum.
It’s a wonderful thing to go into a movie and come out feeling exhilarated or overjoyed, however it is much more memorable and sometimes unnerving experience when we leave a film with tears running down our face or with feelings of dread and discomfort...
Hopefully by now you’ve checked out the first part of our modern classic albums list. Make sure you have voted on the albums you’ve heard and check out the ones you haven’t. The much awaited Part 3 is FINALLY here!
Kaki has done an amazing job and has come a long way from her first album 'Everybody Loves You'. This new album just speaks to you and is honestly one of the best instrumental albums I've heard in a long time. What's great about King is that she really appeals to everyone...
This rather rare screening of Suspiria promises to be a truly memorable and exciting experience, even if you have never seen the film and are simply a horror or even avid film fan I urge you to attend, it will surely be night of terrifying thrills, gorgeous imagery and of course powerful music.
Having trouble deciding on which films you should watch? Have no fear! Over the next few days, the writers here at IN will give you some suggestions of films we're most looking forward to in the 2013 Revelation Film Festival lineup.
I am Divine is loving tribute of a documentary that takes a look at the life and career of Harris Glen Milstead, better known by his stage name, Divine....
Whether you’re a raging cinephile, a self-professed film buff, or just the casual movie-goer, Revelation Perth International Film Festival is an essential and fun cultural experience that should not be missed.
"The next two years are going to be the biggest for Perth. We’re going to see a lot of specialty coffee shops open up, and more then that I think there’s going to be a big push into the independent roasting industry. Melbourne has happened. I wanted to help push the Perth movement. We’re in a prime position right now and I want to be a part of that."
