Stevio...LA LA Lovin' It?

I'm British-born Chinese from Bristol, UK. I’m LA-based. I’m a hip hop aficionado. After 15 years in London I moved to LA to pursue a new career and outlook on life.

Back in the 80s I was a DJ. In the 90s I contributed to the world's first street style exhibition at London's Victoria & Albert Museum. In 2011, I had my first interviews published. Today, I’m keeping busy with music, art, photos and writing.

Word of the month is..."triptych"

The cool things seem to be coming in threes. Last week I finally got to see Tokyo, the arty independent film from three directors, Michel Gondry, Léos Carax and Bong Joon-ho. The two "bookend" films ("Hiroko and Akira in Tokyo" and "Shaking Tokyo") were beautifully done, but "Merde" has been acknowledged as challenging and hard to understand. That doesn't mean it was crap ;) but Jason and I fell asleep?! OMG!

At a separate event, last month was Augustin Kofie's art exhibition at 01 Gallery which featured a large triptych that showed off the scale and detail of his work. Those pieces were wonderful, but I didn't feel I had a few grand to kick around.
