In the jukebox: Bat For Lashes “What’s a Girl to Do?”

Bat for Lashes is the pseudonym of English musician Natasha Khan, a Brighton-based songwriter.

What’s A Girl To Do?” with its dreamy vocals and dramatic bassline is a highlight while “Prescilla” has a magical uplifting quality. What sets Bats For Lashes apart from the usual crop of indie bands is the originality of the songwriting. With its lyrical roots in fairy tales and nursery rhymes, Khan sings of forbidden desire, sinister dreams and magical kingdoms.

Street With A View

Street With A View introduces fiction, both subtle and spectacular, into the doppelganger world of Google Street View.

On May 3rd 2008, artists Robin Hewlett and Ben Kinsley invited the Google Street View team and residents of Pittsburgh’s Northside to collaborate on a series of tableaux along Sampsonia Way. Neighbors, and other participants from around the city, staged scenes ranging from a parade and a marathon, to a garage band practice, a seventeenth century sword fight, a heroic rescue and much more…


Street View technicians captured 360-degree photographs of the street with the scenes in action and integrated the images into the Street View mapping platform.
