Quote, Unquote
Robert Mapplethorpe, a student of photographic history, wasn’t conferring dignity on a taboo subculture; he was after great photographs, although he understood that one of the things that can make a photograph great is the charge of the forbidden. What unified his work, across subjects, was what the French call le glacis de la lumière — a polished, technically exacting finish.

Fukushima Dolphin – Bizarre Love Triangle
This rendition of the New Order song Bizarre Love Triangle is performed by Fukushima Dolphin – a duo based in Brighton Beach, England. Seamas Anstruther alerted us to this video. Seamas tells us he happened to be walking along the Brighton boardwalk when this video was shot in March 2022 – and regrets not stopping to enjoy the music. His most vivid memory was of the man who can be seen dancing on the right side of the frame. When we asked whether he had noticed the woman dancing to the man’s right, he indicates he did not. Seamas further informs us that he subsequently transferred 10 quid to Josh Butler via the bands PayPal account.
