Inseparable Fragments: Through mesmerizing digital collage hanging in Art Gallery St. Albert’s Staircase Art Gallery, Santosh Korthiwada preserves his memories of a lifetime in India.

The Calgary artist digitally stitched hundreds of his photographs together, each fragment chosen because it holds a piece of memory — a sound, a smell, a place or a person. Cosmic yet wonderfully terrestrial, many small parts come together to craft a universal whole. His in-person tour is noon Friday, so come say hello.

Felice Noir: Bobby Tarian and Tayler Grace play the latest Felice Noir at the beautiful café near Commonwealth Stadium with the giant fiddle leaf fig plant up front. Influenced by introspection and the Prairie sunsets, Tarian’s dreamy sound is a blend of indie-folk and synth-rock, reminiscent of Sufjan Stevens, Tame Impala, The Strokes and Andy Shauf.

Inspired by artists like Lord Huron, Hozier and Gregory Alan Isakov, meanwhile, Tayler’s music encapsulates more of a country folk vibe.

Sometimes I Think About Dying (2024): Exploring how challenging it is to create human connections, Star Wars’ Daisey Ridley plays Fran in Rachel Lambert’s new romantic-comedy-drama. In the film, Fran is a socially awkward social worker who spends most of her time alone, daydreaming of her own death, when new co-worker Robert — played by Canadian stand-up comic Dave Merheje — bursts her isolation bubble.

“Sometimes, she’s like, ‘I don’t want to play your games. I don’t want to talk about food. I’m good, I’m apart from this,’” Ridley told a crowd at Sundance. “And other times, she’s like, ‘How do I become part of this?’ So I resonated with that.”
