RÁJ
Shot on location in Budapest, amidst grey skies, rain puddles, and old city streets, it tells the story of a woman whose brittle hands and mournful visage belie the lavish attention she gets from the men around the city.Much of the video is about movement: trams running through the beautiful cityscape, bus rides, rain drops, walking home from work. But it is also about stasis: about the invisibility we battle on a daily basis, stuck in patterns and relationships and roles that we feel powerless to change.In other words, the video is about being a ghost. Or, as Heidegger would say, it’s about fallenness. While it might be a little much to call RÁJ a modern-day Heidegger, he’s clearly onto something poignant here.
Here is another one for the anime collection. Fairy Tail the Movie: Phoenix Priestess will be available on Blu-ray and DVD on December 10. Thanks again to the “FUNimation” channel on YouTube for the trailer:

Ep. 15 of ComicPop Visits with Everfound’s lead singer Nikita
Welcome to Episode 15 of ComicPop Visits. Today the gang is joined by Nikita, the lead singer of the Denver, Colorado based band Everfound. April discovered this band during a Dare 2 Share teen retreat. We reached out to the band and with the help of Markus, one of the bands promoters, Nikita was able to join us for a visit. We also get joined by Mozart during the visit as you will be able to tell right away.
So join us and Nikita for an interesting and fun visit, by listening above, at www.comicpoplibrary.com, or wait until later today and it will be up on our iTunes feed.
I would like to thank Markus Hwang for setting this visit up for ComicPop Library. We had a great time.

Left-field artist RÁJ is mysterious — even we don’t know who he is. And like Jai Paul or Burial before him, he’s a singular voice, one whose mysteriousness aids his sly, tough to pin down songs.
“Ghost” is a slow burner that draws the sonic hallmarks of beat culture into the realm of actual songcraft, like Bon Iver collaborating with Bibio. As it builds, RÁJ carries the song into high drama territory, with an intensity that sounds like a male Florence Welch.

Set To Release Children’s Book
‘Little Luna and The Universe’
on September 24th.
Save the date for the book’s launch:
Thursday, September 26th, 6-8pm
at Books and Cookies in Santa Monica.
Five years in the making, Little Luna and the Universe not only teaches children about the bigger picture of the Universe on a scientific level, it also exposes them to spiritual themes of love and oneness that are necessary to fully grapple with the hugeness of our existence.
On the night we meet Little Luna, she dreams herself to a distant place in the Universe. Far away from everything she knows, she must learn about the Universe before she can go back home and return to wake up in her bed.
She learns about galaxies, the solar system, and the names of all the planets. She also learns about the moon, and that the Universe and everything in it are one. By the end of her journey, she understands that she is part of that oneness.
