Hillary Clinton has been active on social media last week, joining Instagram and Spotify respectively. Hours before her campaign kick-off rally Saturday on New York City's Roosevelt Island, the former first lady and possibly future first lady president released an official Spotify playlist. Many of the tracks were obviously picked for the messages in their titles: Stronger by Kelly Clarkson, Brave by Sarah Bareilles, The Fighter by Gym Class Heroes, Believer by American Authors and Roar by Katy Perry. During Clinton's campaign launch, Echosmith played Cool Kids from their 2013 debut album Talking Kid. However, the indie pop group were not included in the candidate's playlist.
If you’re a fan of art that makes you do a double-take, you need to check out Richard Brener . Based in the UK, Richard is an internationally collected artist who works primarily with ink, fineliners, and gouache. When you first see his pieces, they actually look pretty playful. Then you realize the entire canvas is packed with thousands of tiny, ghost-like shapes he calls "champs." They’re all squeezed together like commuters on a rush-hour train, and the level of detail is honestly mind-blowing. Richard spends hundreds of hours drawing these little guys over and over. It’s obsessive, very intentional, and a little bit wild. The cool part is that the longer you stare, the more the vibe shifts. Check out more photos below:
