On Location: Austin
(12 March 2007) - Rocked-out rockabilly, vintage dancing queen, pure country two-stepper, off-the-wall zoot-suiter—in Austin, anything goes. A blue oasis in a red desert, Austin has earned its keep as the South's most beloved laid-back music scene, a hot and hilly hub where individual style extends from a way of dress to a way of life. If you're heading there for SXSW it's imperative to know where to...

Helvetica The Movie
(09 March 2007) - The idea of a film about a font really stimulates the part of my brain that likes left-field documentaries and clean typefaces. Gary Hustwit's Helvetica has its world premiere next week at SXSW in Austin, Texas, to coincide with the 50th anniversary of said typeface. It then goes on tour round the USA, taking in several universities and festivals, and seeks to explore not...

SXSW Highlights
(21 March 2006) - SXSW is:...Southern sui generis, like this sign reminding people not to forget their cowboy hats or oil boom-era cell phones in their rental car. ...finding the way out of a labyrinth movie theater with help from Rachel McIntosh, who won an award at SXSW for her charming pop-up book-based music video called Don't Fuck With Love by The Sad Little Stars.

Factory People
(20 March 2006) - Housed in a 3,000 square-foot former gun store with murals by artists like Kenzo Minami and Surface 2 Air adorning the walls, Factory People is the Austin spot to find the latest clothing, accessories, music, and—if the empty champagne bottles littering the roof deck are any indication—amazing SXSW parties. Cool Hunting stopped by the morning after their closing night blowout (where both Peaches and...

SXSW: From Smoosh to Clap Your Hands Say Yeah
(17 March 2006) - Yesterday was day two of the music portion of SXSW and Cool Hunting hit seven different venues to see eight different bands in just over seven hours, which was just about the standard pace necessary to keep up with the 1,300 bands scheduled to play—not to mention all the non-SXSW events. First on the list was Eliot Lipp (pictured above), a 25-year old rising...

SXSW: A Scanner Darkly Sneak Preview
(16 March 2006) - Fifteen years ago, Richard Linklater irreversibly altered the course of American cinema when he made Slacker, a movie that defined a generation and precipitated the indie film movement. Now, with A Scanner Darkly, his animated adaptation of Philip K. Dick’s sci-fi novel about a drug-ravaged society, it looks like Linklater’s off in uncharted territory once again. At SXSW yesterday, Cool Hunting was among the...
