lea//"highnote"
Lea’s rock goddess incarnation has made an appearance here before, and if you happened to be hanging out on BBC news or some other time-wasting website when she did, make haste to Lea’s collected ISM works to see and hear some of the sweetest crooning there ever was. Today her ‘studio’ is not just for making music – it’s for makin’ pictures too.

jezzabelle//"goldenhour"
You know her type – the adventure-sports girl who’s always on one excursion or another, never afraid to take up any physical challenge, always on the run in one way or another. Today she captures the beach’s most perfect hour, where the sky and the sea are all mercury and fairy floss, the hour that you only know about if you’re outside as much as she is.

ailith//"dia_de_oro"
Ailith lives in a gilded world – and it seems that most of it is created by her alchemic energy. She clearly carries with her a joy that is ever-present and far-reaching, and she has captured some moments of pure rapture in her follow-up exhibition on ISM.

danzig//"the_loft"
Danzig says that her boyfriend really digs her set, and there are a whole buncha folks about to join his team on that. This, though, serves as a reminder of all of the boyfriends who have been digging on their ISM girlfriends for years, supporting their work and their desire to share it – this is the definition of a ‘liberated man’. Thanks, boyfriends – we love you.

joana//"LustForLife1" Video
The winner of last month’s Art Prize, as it turns out, is a real person – and after she had produced such a superhuman set, we have to admit that we were a little suspicious that she might be a bit cyborg. But here we have video footage as proof that she is a real, live, person, doing real human things – like sleeping.

apples//"waking_dead"
Apples has managed to come up with an entirely original venue for her shoot, as if you needed a cathedral to worship a Godess like this one! Get out your hymn books and sing her praises - then down on your knees, boys and girls, and give thanks for the divine seraphim they forgot to tell you about in sunday school.

bobby//"wind_Swept"
Continuing with the theme of nude self-documentation in remote and isolated Australiannesses, Bobby boards her private helicopter and rocks up in her standard flowy-dressed and cotton-undied style to Tasman Island, where the haunting and the wholesome co-exist in quite the same way they do in herself.

cle//"garden_path"
I've always been a bit creeped out by garden gnomes, but Cle has the ability to change my mind about most things just by flashing her sweet smile. She flashes even more than that today, and I think it's safe to assume that the world of the gnomes will never be the same.

tasty//"flexibelle"
The ISM ladies have many assets and talents, but only one is made of 25% elastic. Tasty can do things with her limbs that make us wonder how they’re still attached, but by the end of this folio she is still completely intact. Save your ‘oohs’ and ‘aahs’ for the comments section – we know she’ll appreciate them.

juniper//"fridge_raid"
It’s not even after midnight and already Juniper is raiding the fridge for anything that looks good next to a girl. And with this particular girl, that’s most things. There’s nothing more interesting than poking around in a stranger’s fridge, and we were chuffed to find that she buys organic.

spooks_vyxin//"laceups"
For being such a goth pinup fox, Spooks_Vyxin leads a pretty normal life, just like you. She's got cable TV and a couch and a coffee table, just like you. And she's got matching corseted undies and platform heels...just like you? Ok, maybe she is a bit out of the ordinary...or maybe you just need a trip to the lingerie shop.

merl//"powder_puff"
She disappeared to the bathroom to ‘powder her nose’ and came out with a camera full of the most delicate images of feminine beauty she could create. She is swimming in atmosphere and the intensity of her own spirit of creation, and invites you to hold your breath and jump in with her.

alix & rider//"pinkpassion_2"
I was about to get all uppity that there were two women in the kitchen and still I got no dinner, but then I opened part two of their sumptuous duet and my hunger was sated. Good thing, too, cos it’s liberated women like them that don’t even bother with dinner these days – they get right to dessert, and they eat it all themselves.

shoezies & delete//"outerspaced2" Video
After this mesmerising series from Shoezies and Delete, we want to make them both into our own little pet Tamagotchis, keeping them in our pockets and setting our timers to feed them electronically. They eat only sequins and microchips and sound bytes – no wonder they’ve got sparkles in their underwear.

betty_brown//"safetycatch"
Where’s the safety switch for this folio? Can’t you see this girl is dangerous? I just love how it could be glue, it could be paint, or any one of a mixture of these substances that Betty uses to create the visual metaphor of the viewing experience. It’s soft, sticky and we’re quite unable to keep our eyes away.
