New York-based, Bay Area raised designer Helena Eisenhart sits down with office to discuss what it was like moving to New York to start her self titled label.

Surrender and let contemporary Canadian artist and writer Brad Philips and Taiwanese-American novelist and poet take you on the strange journey that is this conversation. The two mutli-media artists talk alien invasions, the government, and the absurdity of the world in which we live. They hypothesize and prophesize strange extra-terrestrial, inexplicable, and paranormal happenings that could have occurred or could occur in the future, including from personal experiences. Life on Earth feels more magical imagining that all these things could be. Without it, it seems so much more bleak, Lin says.

In all of their bashful and enamored glory, singer Faye Webster and her boyfriend Booth discuss Faye’s writing process, “In a Good Way” being one of the best love songs of all time, and her thoughts on her last record.

The Mexican born, Los Angeles raised founder of label LRS discusses his highly involved and constructed garments, replete with ruffles, chains, cutouts, and tears.

Who better but Meg to go on this hero’s journey?
