John Malkovich has made a song with Yoko Ono and Sean Lennon

This spoken word piece made me shut up and listen. It's John Malkovich reading Plato's Allegory of the Cave over a pretty nice groove. According to Rolling Stone:
"The track opens with [Sean] Lennon's sparse piano and [Yoko] Ono's distant, distinct vocals creating a minimalist background for Malkovich's text. As Ono's vocals rise up in the mix, Lennon lays down a swinging, jazzy guitar part and the kind of drum beat more often found on a lost funk 45 than an avant-garde recording. The song ends nearly as it begins, with chaotic percussion augmenting piano and Ono's vocals."

The Adorable Sculptures of Yen Yen Lo

These images are from a series of wall sculptures created by Yen Yen Lo . Here you can see her intricately textured ceramic pieces, looking downright adorable. Yen Yen Lo's eye for the unique and whimsical is delightful. Apparently they are not intended for kids under 16. Fifteen-year-olds cannot be trusted with fragile stuff. Get them a Funko Pop instead.

Bats, Cats, and Dancing Skeletons

It’s now been fifty-eight years since Walt Disney died of lung cancer, and as a great way to remember his legacy is watch this short film he did in 1929. It’s truly impressive, and you can still see the impact he made on animation today.
