Rage Is Back
If you were to mash-up components from IT with Wild Style, and then gave the resulting work an adventurous narrative you might begin to understand Adam Mansbach’s great new novel Rage Is Back. A breezy, enjoyable read for anyone with a nostalgia for graffiti in a bygone era of NYC, the book has the added bonus of a cover and drop caps designed by KEO.

The Fruit Hunters
We first mentioned this film way back in 2010, and it looks like it’s now screening in Montreal. It’s all about fruit. The more exotic, the better. BA caught up with Bill Pullman (who’s featured in the film) to talk about his fruit addiction.
