There's something about a bridge. Whether it's an ancient stone arch over a stream or a 19th century marvel like the Roeblings' Brooklyn beauty or a modern, mile-long steel behemoth with towers that rise hundreds of feet into the air, a bridge is the most practical and the most evocative of structures. A bridge takes us places; a bridge connects places. And sometimes, a single bridge can help to define places. Take the Golden Gate Bridge, 75 years old this year. (It opened on May 27, 1937.) With its immediately recognizable "international orange" — not golden — [...]

We last heard from Cyril Rampal in July . His self-titled micro-release was fresh from the oven. We remarked about the brevity of the three sketches, and of the album itself, praising its "Solar wind synth, boot-stomp percussion, a control panel heartbeat, thudding oscillations, and spare buckets for all the dripping reverb." Following the full-length album's release in January, Richard Allen - writing for A Closer Listen - penned a make-our-month review, concluding: "Black Polygons helps us to consider the weight and length of music, and to question the very nature of [...]

It's one thing to get inspired by an artist as you come across their work on the internet, it's another thing to watch an artist's progression in real life. Although I'm sure he was taking pictures before it happened, I'd argue that getting hired at Freshjive was one of the first big breaks of Ian Flanigan's photographic career.
