Tea With Miss Massacre

I do adore Goth fashion, art and find the whole culture very inspiring. When I think of Gothic style, so many words come to mind: creativity, exciting, mysterious, invigorating, vibrant, dramatic, sexy, dangerous… The word Goth has so many meanings for me and I don’t just see a piece of dark clothing or black hair… Goth can be very beautiful and seeing someone live by their own terms is quite special. To love who and what you are despite what people might think is extremely powerful.

The story was a vehicle for the images I wanted to draw, so it’s full of voodoo girls, demon nuns and lesbian vampires. I’m planning to upload the whole thing onto my new website in five bite size chunks.

Interview With Natasha Scharf – Worldwide Gothic Author

The book is very different from anything that’s been done before and that includes its structure. It’s basically set out into three sections that roughly equate to the ’70s/’80s, ’90s and ’00s and each of those sections holds a chronological tale of Goth as a whole all around the world. Naturally, the Australian scene is covered throughout the years as part of this chronology. Starting with punk and the little band nights, it takes in the likes of Birthday Party/Nick Cave and Dead Can Dance and the impact the UK scene had on both, before moving onto more modern acts like Angelspit and Ikon and the popularity of cyber, gothic lolita and steampunk. So rather than having countries set out into chapters, it’s all woven into one giant prose or chronicle (hence the sub-heading) – and you can trace everything back to its roots to see how it’s translated in other countries. It’s not about dark culture or about what makes people gothic – it’s a chronicle of the goth movement and very unique, which is why I was so interested in taking on the project

D*Cyber Punk travelled through a space~time wormhole to Ireland to meet with the very punk~alicious Alternative Model ~ Razor Candi where they took a tour of the Jameson’s distillery before getting kicked out for being too mischievous! After that the cheeky Goth duo headed to a cosy little Irish pub where they ended up throwing darts (at each other) in between sips of Jamesons whiskey and a few rounds of the very unsettling Guinness and Baileys concoction known as Irish Car Bombs.

I love that women are the main fans of burlesque. I love that all shapes and sizes perform, I love the humor and confidence of the performers, and of course—I love the costumes!! Many of my designs are inspired by burlesque and my many friends who perform on stage or are a part of the scene in other creative ways

Tribal Gothic Perspective of Steampunk Style

March 1, 2011 by  
Filed under Live News Girl

I really like the Darker side of Steampunk (Gothic and Bondage elements) as there is definitely an erotic and mystical Gothic side, however I do actually like the Wikipedia definition.

To paraphrase Wikipedia: Steampunk is a sub-genre of science fiction, alternate history, and speculative fiction in an era or world where steam power is still widely used or futuristic innovations as Victorians may have envisioned them – based on a Victorian perspective.

I think the entrepreneurial spirit in me has evolved from wanting to be independent, unique and original ~ the very essence that underlies everything about me. I find it very difficult working underneath people who are incompetent and unprofessional. I can’t be arsed with putting up with bullshit politics in a workplace and I just want to make a living.
