Deeply embedded in the Bay Area art scene, Joan Brown (b. 1938, San Francisco; d. 1990, Puttaparthi, India) drew inspiration from many sources to create works that merge autobiography, fantasy, and whimsy, with weightier metaphysical and spiritual themes.

Super excited for a Giant Robot Game Night, it's been a while. Even more buzzed, because it's for the Rose & Camellia Collection, which is headed to Switch. In this game you have to prove yourself to the upper crust by slapping the sh*t out of them. It looks like one of the best uses for the Joy-cons since WarioWare: Move It! just came out. The website for it still has no release date, it's coming out through Wayforward.

Set in France in the late 19th century, the film follows the life of Dodin Bouffant (Benoît Magimel) as the preeminent chef living with his personal cook and lover Eugénie (Oscar®-winner Juliette Binoche). Eugénie and Dodin share a long history of gastronomy and love. While emotions remain contained, the culinary discoveries are, on the other hand, breathtakingly exquisite. The only hitch is that Eugénie refuses to marry Dodin. So, the food lover decides to do something he has never done before: cook for her.
