TOP DOGS—Photolucida’s annual Critical Mass show is a prime and rare opportunity in Portland to feel the pulse of international trends in photography. Hundreds of professionals helped to curate Across the Divide, with final selections made by Todd Hido. The resulting 50 artists provide a satisfying breadth of styles, from conceptual work to fantastical stagings. JL

HAPPY HOLIDAZE—The smoke-cloud psychedelia of Tame Impala isn’t merely witless noodling; rather, the Australian trio makes enveloping slabs of brain candy, perfect music for sky gazing, fire catching, or whatever it is that people are supposed to do on 4/20. Even more importantly, Tame Impala rocks. NL
