day 307: Hats
Posted by AM on 19th August 2010 in Art
Sooo it’s been such a long time, we even skipped our 300th day anniversary. Now I guess what we need is a hat as big as these, selected from Nadia Moro’s portfolio, to hide our shame under…
day 293: Mystery
Invoked Forces is currently my favorite blog for absolutely striking and intriguing images… Think velvet, lace, black & white and all things beautiful but slightly scary…

day 286: The Revelator
Posted by VL on 29th July 2010 in Music
His popularity is increasing at a rate no other EDM producer come close to, his productions are fresh and musically impeccable, Nico Jaar is certainly one of the most in demand artists in the business right now. He’ll be at Fabric on August 7, so just as the Heartthrob track, here is a little giveaway. Grab it.

day 286: Not Yet
Posted by VL on 29th July 2010 in Music
One of Minus‘ predominant artist Heartthrob will be playing Fabric on saturday and he offers you this full quality track as an incentive. It seems more expressive than most of his past work. The main line, which is predominant does it for me. It’s real fun to hear grainy aggressive synths and bass lines in minimal, the way Cobblestone Jazz, Extrawelt and Minilogue do it.

day 285: House in the valley
Posted by AM on 26th July 2010 in Design
It’s gotta have something with the fact that I can’t travel to Switzerland this summer, but this house in the Vals got to me in the deepest manner. Built inside a hill and designed by Christian Müller Architects and SeARCH, it really looks like the abode of a whealthy ground hog…
See all the pictures here.
day 281: Little Adults

"Alisia In Her Mother's Fur Store", Moscow 2009
Il se tient près du foyer, le noeud papillon noué autour du cou et les cheveux léchés, l’air fier. Elle, tout près, se perd dans des vagues de crinoline, une rivière d’émeraudes et de diamants attachée sur sa nuque. Ils sont des enfants, et déjà, ils sont plus riches que je ne le serai jamais dans ma vie entière. Ils font partie de la nouvelle génération russe, celle des “nouveaux-riches”, qui attend de ses enfants de représenter l’élite future. Leur réalité, la photographe Anna Skladmann a voulu la mettre en images. La série “Little Adults” émeut donc par cette vision d’une enfance qui se passe à agir comme des grands, trop vite, dans un luxe inouï dont ils doivent en payer le prix, au grand sacrifice de plaisirs enfantins refoulés.
Anna Skladmann est représentée par la galerie Volchkova à Paris. Son travail (admirable) peut être apprécié sur Dripbook.
day 280: Shakur
Posted by VL on 21st July 2010 in Music
Brandt Brauer Frick is one of the few authentic electronic music bands out there. What they do is different and refreshing. The suited up trio got remixed by Losoul and the result is real nice; an unusual house track with an uncommon but very effective structure. Make sure you get that release and check out the Bop video after the break.
