Mick Gordon: Bringing Hell to Headphones

“Argent Energy” is the title of one of the tracks of id Software’s 2016 video game “Doom.” The name references the plot of the game, where the antagonists open the gates of Hell in hopes of harnessing its energy to solve a crisis on Earth. The result, as one might expect, is an outbreak of demons intent on causing chaos and violence. The energy of Hell had been released, but in a way far too powerful to control. The soundtrack for “Doom” is widely celebrated as perfectly encapsulating this feeling, exactly as its composer Mick Gordon had intended.

Christopher John Rogers: A World of His Own

“A lot of our work lives in the tension between high-octane drama and straightforward American pragmatism. I love garments that teeter and oscillate between those two planes.”

This is how Christopher John Rogers describes the clothes that define the identity of his brand. Known for dressing celebrities in headline-making looks, the new face in the fashion industry has already made a big name for himself. His works range from somewhat subtle to in-your-face intensity, but whichever piece you choose, his unique design tendencies are apparent.

Angelica Ross: Against All Odds

When it comes to LBGT, most people tend to forget what the T stands for. This is beyond apparent in the Hollywood sphere. While the list of gay actors is by no means saturated, there are even fewer transgender actors, and even fewer among those that get credited roles. More and more often, a celebrity will come out as gender nonconforming, like Sam Smith and Jonathan Van Ness coming out as nonbinary or Ruby Rose coming out as genderfluid, but very few have the chance to enter the light already out of the pink or blue closet. Laverne Cox, Elliot Fletcher, and up and coming Angelica Ross are some of the few notable transgender actors.
