Art and Culture links

Discovered Magma book/product shop not long ago. Thought it might be of interest to anyone interested in graphic arts/cool products. Quite trashbat, but aren't all the best things in life?

http://www.magmabooks.com/

Check out some of the cool lamps in the product section.

I'm always grateful for recommendations of similar stores or online vendors if yall have any.

Volcanic Tongue www.volcanictongue.co.uk the UK's finest purveyor of underground musics (no techno or electronica though unless you count the likes of Whitehouse and Wolfeyes).

Funny you shoud say Magma is Trashbat - the little roundabout he's riding around on the DVD menu is just round the corner from their Covent Garden store!

I think it's a cool shop for coffee table style books, whenever I've read about a book in a magazine and thought 'that's sounds pretty interesting, but I'm not going to spend £xx on it', it's almost always in Magma.

Same with The Designers Republic really. A load of fantastic publications but just not worth the price they go at.

if your'e in sheffield a lot of such books are in the psalter lane library (hallam uni art dept.) - they have the DR books (the big pink thing anyway), plus a good magazine section - saves a fortune
