Picks of the Week: Instagram, North Sky Cinema's 'Oh My Michigan'


North Sky Cinema's "Oh My Michigan"

Central Michigan University’s own North Sky Cinema recently put out their newest release, "Oh My Michigan," a fantastic seven-track collection of indie rock sounds with punk sensibility.

Songs like “I Can’t Read Your Mind” and “Long Gone” are perfectly able to balance elements of punk music with instrumentation such as guitars and vocalist Kyle Sutton’s distinct sound.

The production isn’t flawless as it is still a local release, but "Oh My Michigan" is very much worth your time.

Instagram

I am not a photographer — not one bit — but there is a handy iPhone application that makes me feel like I could be one: Instagram.

Instagram is a photo-sharing application that allows users to take and edit photos with fancy filters that offer an array of color choices, along with sharing those photos across various social media platforms.

While I am not skilled at the art of photography, Instagram allows me to fake it and make "artsy" pictures (usually of my shoes). So if you're anything like me and hate taking photos (and own an iPhone), Instagram is definitely worth checking out.
