I love it when you've known someone for a really long time but somehow have never seen their work- and when you finally do, its like a punch in the face. In the best way!! Beautiful images by David Gilbert.

HIKING
We're feeling the 70s hiking and camping vibe for spring 11- especially those striped hiking boot cords and the plastic backpack closures. Some excellent vintage hiking photos via jakedavis.typepad.com
INTEGRATRON
George Van Tassel's cell rejuvenating acoustic sound dome is right outside Joshua Tree. Besides being a center for sound therapy, just being inside the dome raises tissue cells' metabolic rate to what it was at an earlier age- hence rejuvenation! Apparently the sound effects are pretty wild too- you can take a public "sound bath" for ten bucks most days of the week. You can also rent out the whole dome for a weekend.
Built on a geomagnetic vortex, the Integratron was inspired by ideas that were channelled to Van Tassel via UFOs and personal hero Nikola Tesla. Its related to the site of the great Pyramid in Egypt, and Great Rock, the worlds largest freestanding boulder, which you can also visit- its right down the street.

MALI
Check out these holy shrines in Mali. They predate Gaudi, and are made out of sun dried mud and branches. Amazing shapes. This is what a shrine should look like!
I'd like to go there...
