Composer Matt Morton created the score for the epic, found-footage documentary Apollo 11. To capture the feel of the footage in sound, Morton used instruments from the beginning of the electronic era — specifically a reissue Moog 3C synthesizer. Morton talks about his creative process for creating the music, and how the instruments were as inspiring as the film.

Velasca's Filòm Loafers fit like a glove — and that's no play on words. Made from the innermost layer of leather and buffed to give them their signature velvety texture, these suede shoes are washed with pumice stone for a lived-in look and feel, and hand-constructed using a tubular construction and sewn together by an internal seam called a Blake stitch, which helps the shoe flex with the natural flexing of your feet. A bit Ivy and inherently Italian, the shape references traditional college-style loafers, which were low-cut with a 'biscotto' shape. Now, they're a democratic everyman silhouette — but this iteration is for those with a keen sense of style and an eye for quality craftsmanship.
