I mean, the word quantum alone would generally have sent me running for the hills, physics; in fact science as a whole, […]
Since I spent over three years of my life studying cinema, I’m used to watching a variety of genres and films in many different languages. I’ve written 4000 word articles about French New Wave.

One of the best things about Instagram is the stumble-upon effect, when you discover something totally awesome that you weren’t expecting to see today. That thing today is the Santa Cruz x Mars Attacks skate collaboration collection. Some of you might know Mars Attacks because of the 1996 Tim Burton film, but the origins are […]
