“Becoming Human” follows the unexpected friendship between a journalist and the spirit guardian of an abandoned movie theater
The afterlife can be quite lonely. In Polen Ly’s “Becoming Human” (2025), Thida, the resident spirit guardian of an abandoned movie theatre, watches the world move on around her after her death over 50 years ago. She spends her days wandering the grounds, people-watching from her perch in the balconies, and eating the occasional offerings left at […] The post “Becoming Human” follows the unexpected friendship between a journalist and the spirit guardian of an abandoned movie theater appeared first on International Examiner.

The Lady Rainier Statue Is Seattle’s Queen of Public Transportation
Though hidden, the Lady Rainier statue is easy to find. She is right next to the northernmost building of the Old Rainier Brewery complex on Airport Way. A few steps from a parking lot lead you to her feet, which are planted on an orb. Her toes, particularly on the left foot, are the stuff […] The post The Lady Rainier Statue Is Seattle’s Queen of Public Transportation appeared first on The Stranger.

How Fear Becomes Policy
There is a moment, after the sirens fade and before the cameras arrive, when grief is still allowed to be grief. But this fragile window is gone much too soon.

Jibz Cameron Becomes Dynasty Handbag
The clearest way to explain Dynasty Handbag’s act might be to quote the artist herself. “I am not a wretched performance artist, or merely a comedian, or the ghastly clown, or simply an actor,” Jibz Cameron writes in her new memoir, Hell in a Handbag. “I perform as this alter ego. I do songs sorta and stand-up […] The post Jibz Cameron Becomes Dynasty Handbag appeared first on The Stranger.

MONDAY 5/11 Ann Wilson: In My Voice (MUSIC) Last year, when I interviewed Heart for our November issue, I asked Ann Wilson what it was like revisiting old footage for the then-forthcoming documentary In My Voice. “Very surreal!” she said. “Recently … I was looking at some slides from my teenage years.

A DJ Isn’t a Mirror
Even though I’ve heard his voice on the air since I was a child, KEXP DJ Kevin Cole has done almost too good a job at championing artists and public radio, because I knew nothing about his own legacy before watching his documentary.

We are ancestors in this timeline: ‘urban ashram’ Studio 7117 cultivates global creatives with NWFF fiscal sponsorship
A lineup of shiny lowriders parked just north of Pioneer Square—silver, purple, forest green—is the first sign I’ve arrived at Studio 7117’s Khmer New Year Celebration. The artists: members of White Center-based Eazy Duz It Car Club. A copy of Aaliyah Uy’s oil painting “tendril, leaf, fruit, & flowers” hangs inside: adorned mudra hands in […] The post We are ancestors in this timeline: ‘urban ashram’ Studio 7117 cultivates global creatives with NWFF fiscal sponsorship appeared first on International Examiner.
