editor’s letter

Dearest Love, The moon was full and bright orange tonight in Venice Beach, CA. There was something so magical about it and it effected everyone I was with. There was something of an unconscious celebration going on. Even with the party relocation from the newly shut down to the transplant Stronghold the live music, drinking, new friends, old friends, laughter, and dancing found a way to exist. Sharing experience in this seemingly heightened state of play could easily become a ritual and one that I would happily participate in on a regular basis!

m o r f r e t let e editor th © Collective Magazine 2010

The creation of this issue has led to this moment. I am surrounded by the ones I adore the most. As issue four has been finalized in the summer months and phrases like “Venice Snob” seem to actually have meaning I am grateful for the process of creation more than ever. My fellow creatives and I are somewhat a tribe of our own and I really didn’t see that until after working on this Tribal inspired Desire and Obsession issue. Put together out of love of the art and true inspiration there are moments from of reveal, self assurance, togetherness, confidence, arrogance, tension, restraint, obsession, peace, perseverance, and exploration. All of this wildness builds into what I am proud to reflect on as the best issue of Collective magazine yet.

Read and enjoy!

Walker Brockington & Fernando Lahoz RUS ANSON

© Collective Magazine 2010

Rus Anson is a Fine Art Fashion photographer who thinks that everything is possible and doesn’t like to be realistic. Rus was born in 1983 in a little fishing town next to the Mediterranean sea. Raised in Barcelona, she studied Advertising and Graphic Design and when she finished, she moved to the United States with a full scholarship to study a Masters in Photography. She moved to San Francisco two years ago where she currently lives, studies and works as a fashion photographer. Rus’s inspiration comes from her grandpa’s stories, movies, her boyfriend Antonio, people she sees and randomly meets in the streets, Carmen’s [friend]red hair, Cera’s [friend] big smile, her neighbor playing the guitar, San Francisco’s light, streets and parks, her beautiful green van, music, the big windows of her little apartment, good photographs, smart advertising, her hometown, thrift stores, travel, thinking about her family and friends, children’s books... Rus’s dream would be to go out for dinner with Irving Penn, Spike Jonze, Banksy, Egon Schiele, Jean Paul Goude and Amelie, altogether, and have some drinks and talk about their dreams.

New York based duo Walker Brockington and Fernando Lahoz bring together their diverse backgrounds in figure painting and art direction (www.walkerbrockington.com and www.fer-oz.com), to create a dynamic and refreshing perspective to the art of photography. Born in Columbia, South Carolina Walker was educated at Northwestern University and The Slade School of Art in London. Fernando Lahoz is native to Seville, Spain. He attended Miami Advertising School and has worked around the world in some of the most prestigious advertising agencies.

Fernando now works as an Fashion Art Director and lives in Brooklyn, NY.

Anthony Elgort A world traveller and visionary creator of images, Anthony Elgort has been a resident of Los Angeles for only a year, but he has already made his mark. Elgort’s groundbreaking work ranges from travel to the snowy mountains of Bulgaria in the cold winter, to finding a sculptural nude beneath the waters of Cape Cod. In his dynamic portraits, he connects with and brings out the personality beneath, seeking the miraculous, the strong, and the visually arresting. In his remarkable fashion pictures he strips back the layers to find something elusive and sophisticated, sexy in the truest sense soulful, alive, edgy and beautiful.

Zoe Zimmer Half American, half German, born and raised in Notting Hill London, and an LA regular Zoë Zimmer, 22, is a true international.

After modelling for 6 years, Zoë turned to photography and since has been making a name for herself behind the lens using her experience in the industry. Although specialising in fashion photography, Zoë recently has completed a campaign for the UN Foundation featuring numerous artists including Morgan Freeman and The LA Lakers.

In her spare time she enjoys grilled cheese sandwiches and watching Law & Order:SVU with her boyfriend.

...says Robert Perlick-Molinari, one half of fraternal electro-pop duo French Horn Rebellion. It’s not exactly the kind of admission an interviewer wants to hear just when you’re sitting down for a chat, but I have a sneaking suspicion that there’s more to this Milwaukee-born pair than they let on.

“Yeah, we just stay in one place all the time, we never go anywhere,” his brother David agrees, and now I know

that they’re lying. “We never travel, and we make music that we don’t like... no, just kidding!”

In truth, the brothers Molinari couldn’t be happier with their music, nor their jet-setting lifestyle (they’re still

reeling from the jetlag of returning from Paris as we speak) and it’s no accident that their infectious synthesized tracks have an

almost euphoric effect.“I’ve been getting frustrated at how much melancholy and negative and depressing music there is out there,” David admits, when asked to describe the band’s aesthetic. “I always felt that I needed to balance that out – probably because I was depressed for a while - so that might be why we’ve been doing so much positive music these days. We find a lot of the

most fun times we’ve had, we’ve shared with other people, and I think if we can create music that brings people together in that way, then we’ll be spreading the joy that we’ve received from others.”

sports and never care about music or art or anything,” David explains. “So she really instilled the importance of doing cultural things and musical things in order to better yourself and learn more about yourself and your emotions.” Though both boys began playing classical instruments, it was Robert who found himself immersed in the classical lifestyle that his mother admired so much, finding himself enthralled by the sounds of the symphonies that they so often frequented as children, and consequentially drawn into playing the mythic French horn that gave the band its name.

Robert spent the majority of his time practicing and rehearsing, much to the detriment of his artistic expression.

But the summer after his freshman year at Northwestern University,

Robert visited David in New York to begin a music production internship, and the experience changed his whole perspective: “I was working as a post-production engineer with David and not once did anybody use a French horn, the whole summer,” he recalls. Disheartened that his instrument seemed to be obsolete in the real world outside the classical conservatory, Robert decided to embark on a © Collective Magazine 2010

And what’s next for the dauntless duo? In addition to a

whirlwind tour of Europe, the pair is currently putting the finishing touches to their new album, which Robert describes as, “extremely eclectic,” since the pair had grown tired of the repetitive nature of the music industry.

Strangely, the brothers have also found themselves

inadvertently entangled in the world of fashion, following performances at the fashion shows of designers Jean-Charles de Castelbajac and Tommy Hilfiger. “Fashion and music play off each other a lot,” David points out, explaining the appeal of collaboration, not just amongst musicians, but also amongst fashion designers and artists too.

IMMODESTY BLAIZE

laize is a burlesque dancer – an hourglass figure poured into an array of glorious ensembles bedazzled with sequins, feathers and lace. She is the quintessential embodiment of woman, an expression of femininity (and feminism) combined with the aromatic elixir of fantasy. Burlesque - an amalgamation of

music, dance, wit, and performance - has experienced a resurgence as of late, and Ms. Blaize - who looks like Ava Gardner and Sophia Loren’s love child - is currently blazing a trail across the globe, promoting the art form. Some of her props include a giant retro telephone, and an enormous rocking horse, which Blaize is always happy to straddle for her enraptured audience. Within the confines (or lack thereof) of burlesque, anything goes. Whether you’re putting it on, or taking it off, Immodesty Blaize is always happy to indulge and titillate, every step of the way.

Susan: What elements of fashion really fascinate you?

Immodesty: I love drama, and the theatrical facets it can add – things like intrigue, mystique, power, strength and sensuality. I’m particularly drawn to things that are an exaggeration of reality. Fashion transforms us visually into whatever we choose, however we wish to be seen – a character, a fantasy; we can create an entire ambience with an outfit.

There is a thin line between confidence and arrogance: Ti West straddles it By: Todd Gilchrist Photography: Tyler Parker Stylist: Jessica Blosser

“I don’t want to say I don’t want to do horror movies, but I don’t.”

F

or writer-director Ti West, this seems to be a particularly unexpected statement. Not only are all of his

features to date part of the genre, his most recent film, The House of the Devil is by far his most acclaimed and commercially successful work to date.

But for this budding auteur, opting to go the genre route is a double-edged sword, laced with pragmatism but dipped in creativity.

“I can write a movie like The Innkeepers (his next film in production, and, you guessed it – horror) and I can go to Sundance and meet with people and convince them to make the movie so I can go out with all of the people I care about… [we] can make this movie and work together. But if I write a romantic comedy and it costs too much money, no one will give it to me,” he observes.

West is regarded one of horror’s new vanguards - a filmmaker who recalls the heyday of genre luminaries like John Carpenter and Wes Craven, when individual personality paired readily with populist thrills. Nowadays, horror moviemaking generally seems driven by one or the other, with filmmakers and audiences stranded on opposite sides of the sinkhole that demands more money than imagination.

TI WEST

Ultimately, however, West says the reason he’ll continue working as a horror filmmaker -- even if it’s only for the time being - is because it allows him plenty of creative latitude while also generating that automatic commercial potential.

“I think horror is an excellent place to create metaphors and allusions,” he says. “You can really explore that stuff in this genre and you can’t as much in romantic comedies, and that’s just fine by me.”

West is beyond passionate about what he creates, because, as he said, it all falls back on him; which can be kind of exhausting. “It’s so traumatic making a movie,” he continues. “And when you’re making a personal movie, it’s that times ten. I’m just not someone who’s just trying to make something ‘cool’ for the audience. I would be miserable over it and it just isn’t worth it.”

hen you look at the photos that accompany this article, it can be a little confusing.

At first glance, Sarah Hyland looks

delicate – almost breakable. But as you move through the trajectory of this photographic storyline, you realize the actress is anything but fragile. Hyland – whose look is reminiscent of Mila Kunis -- is one of the powerhouse personalities behind the hit © Collective Magazine 2010

television show (and ribald mockumentary) “Modern Family.” But while Kunis did her time on the occasionally funny Fox hit, That 70’s Show, Hyland is part of a new breed of comedic flair – understated, yet totally and completely out there.

Hyland (a native New Yorker) hit the acting circuit like many a young ingénue,

taking on the lead role of that effervescent redhead Annie in the theatrical rendition of the same name. From there she made her Broadway debut in the iconic show of all things Big and Little Edie, “Grey Gardens”, where she played a young Jackie Onassis. “Working a Broadway schedule is like boot camp for actors,” says the petite 19 year old thespian. “It’s the only thing that can truly prepare someone for 16 hour days on set [in television]. I [realized] how special an experience it was and I credit that with my ability to adjust to sitcom life.”

Moving from NYC to LA can never be an easy transition; especially for those East

Coasters who are used to walking – not driving. It’s an adjustment to be sure, but Hyland

seems to be assimilating quite nicely. “I love LA. I don’t feel the same pressures here that I did in New York. I love New York, but whenever I’m there (in NYC) I feel a pressure to be “on” all the time, and that can get exhausting.”

Back in L.A, she realizes that she is part of

more than a mere sitcom, Modern Family is a slice of nouveau Americana. Hyland and her co-stars have a tall order to fill; while they are a motley crew of familial misfits, they have to ‘act’ like a normal family – and by normal, I mean completely dysfunctional. That can’t be as easy as it seems to pull off. Yet Hyland is a true optimist when describing her cast members…

“Everyone on set brings something so unique to this show; we truly represent the families that make up this country.” The song, “America the Beautiful” comes to mind when hearing statements like that, but when you look at a beauty like Hyland, your attitude shifts and you realize – it’s not the country that’s so gorgeous, but the people like Hyland who make it what it is today.

post-coital

Might as well face it, you’re addicted to..

Many of us remember UK rocker Robert Palmer’s famous #1 single Addicted to Love: “Might as well face it, you’re addicted to love.”

I’ve found out it’s one of the hardest lyrics to read and not break into song and start singing. I’ve caught myself singing along more than once during the course of writing this article... “You might as well face it, you’re addicted to love.”

So what do you think of when you hear about an addiction or addicts? Is it that couple who recently became engaged and are now seeming friends, or the support meetings for those who have the courage to try and piece their lives back together.

Addictions can ruin lives.

Did you realize that every year, tobacco use kills more Americans than World War II and the Vietnam War combined? Roughly 440,000 Americans a year die from smoking related deaths according to the Center for Disease Control. So sad.

Together we have seen the promising lives and careers of Kurt Cobain and River Phoenix end abruptly because of addiction. More recently, Tiger Woods fell off his podium on top of the world and Jesse James, former front man for Sandra Bullock, fell victim to another kind of addiction - or so they say.

Recently I learned the story of perhaps the biggest addict the world has ever seen. His name is Ashrita Furman. I must warn you though, Ashrita Furman is not your typical addict and probably the last guy you’ll find at Betty Forde or support meetings.

Why is that you ask? Well, Ashrita Furman is addicted to setting world records. Yes, you heard that correctly, the man is addicted to pushing the limits on what is possible. He

© Collective Magazine 2010

final word

sets world records and immediately begins training and practicing for new records after spending months doing monotonous activities like riding a unicycle backwards (which he did for over 50 miles consecutively). The man is clearly an addict.

Ashrita Fuman holds more world records than any human being alive.

According to his website “Ashrita has set - 283- official Guinness Records since 1979 and currently holds - 114 - standing records including the official record for “the most records held at the same time by an individual!!”

Is Ashrita creative? Yes. Unconventional. Absolutely. Some of his records are so bizarre I’m not sure they’ll ever be challenged such as the longest continuous distance traveled balancing a milk bottle on your head (80.95 miles) or most translations of a single poem (111 languages). Love him or hate him (quite frankly I don’t see how you could hate the guy but I’ve learned never say never) one thing is for sure; we could all learn something from Ashrita. He applies himself 100% to every single project he is a part of.

He certainly dances to the beat of his own drum, as everything he’s attempting to do has never been done before. He’s addicted to self-improvement and breaking world records. His neighbors gather around and watch him as entertainment.

Go find yourself some positive vices this month.

For an inspiring video interview and more about Ashrita’s world records check out www.ashrita.com.
