Martin Sexton Remembers 9/11 with New "Sugarcoating" Video

Recent featured stated artist, Martin Sexton, has posted a new video for his song, Sugarcoating, on his YouTube channel. The song explores the mishandling of the aftermath of 9/11 by the American government and media, and the new video, which features Martin in several roles, is a fitting and lighthearted expression of the song. It’s also a nice way to remember the tragedy of September 11th during its 10-year anniversary this weekend.

Be sure to check out our interview with Martin, visit him at martinsexton.com, and check out the Sugarcoating album on iTunes.

Behind the Scenes of Jordan Matter's "Dancers Among Us" Photography Series

NY dancers Eric Bourne, Lloyd Knight, and Dayla Perkins in the finished New Rochelle shot from Jordan Matter’s “Dancers Among Us” series of photographs

New York based photographer Jordan Matter’s captures dancers in everyday, ordinary situations in extraordinary ways in his “Dancers Among Us” series. The project began when he had the idea to shoot Paul Taylor Dance Company member Jeffrey Smith, which quickly expanded to the full company and eventually dancers across the country. He’s been documenting his shoots on his blog and in videos, which catch the often fascinating clash between dancer and setting, from riding the subway to shoveling snow.

For a recent shoot in New Rochelle, Matter created the illusion of a dancer floating above the horizon through no effects or manipulation. Check out the behind the scenes video below to see how it was done, and find more addictive videos on his video channel.
