Microkhan by Brendan I. Koerner

Okay, here’s the deal: Ever since Microkhan Jr. entered the picture, we’ve been able to spend a grand total of one night alone with the Grand Empress. But all that’s about to change, starting today: By the time you read these words, the Microkhan crew will (hopefully) be winging its way to Detroit, en route to dropping off the progeny with the in-laws. Then the royal duo’s heading up north, with only a map and our collective nose for Bell’s Beer to guide us.

So, the upshot is that posting will be light the next few days. In our honor of our initial destination, we’re gonna start by sharing the clip above—the first part of a killer French documentary about the Detroit techno scene. The image of the baroque theater transformed into a parking garage will stick with you, no question.
