POSTSCRIPT: MONO.KLUB #40

A second book launch for our publication with Robert Montgomery that couldn’t have been more different from our initial launch party in Berlin: instead of the grand party in the former swimming pool, an intimate conversation between Robert and myself, which was fun, interesting and very direct, discussing our book, the Berlin summer project, why [...]

CONCERT

ICE Lab from NY is performing for three days in Krome Gallery. This performance will be showing every step of a preparation for a concert, eliminating the long period of selection of a work or  rehearsing. An installation by Bo Christian Larsson is said to create a stage that ‘blurs the boundaries between the audience [...]

MONO.GRAMM AUTUMN / WINTER 2012

Dear Friends,
little did we know when we produced this season’s accompanying film to our Autumn / Winter collection with mono.gramm earlier this year, that it would turn into a kind of swan song – or at least for the time being – since in the meantime, we decided to take a sabbatical [...]

MONDAY MUSIC: GRIMES

Okay, Grimes, whatever, but the video by one Emily Kai Bock is a real stunner, and here is a director to watch, having steadily risen to produce some of the best videos for independent outfits of late, including the mighty Grizzly Bear’s latest offering.

EVERYDAY THEATER

Paris Photo is a deluge of looking. Booth after booth, book after book, image after image; in the end, what stands out?

THE INFINITE JUKEBOX

With The Infinite Jukebox, you can create a never-ending and ever changing version of any song. The app which was created by Paul Lamere works by sending your uploaded track over to The Echo Nest, where it is decomposed into individual beats. Each beat is then analyzed and matched to other similar sounding beats [...]

MONO.KLUB #40: ECHOES OF VOICES IN THE HIGH TOWERS / LONDON

Dear Friends,
since Robert Montgomery came all the way from London to join us for the release of our shared publication Echoes of Voices in the High Towers a few weeks ago, it seemed only fair to return the favour and make our way over to the grand isles to present our book in person to [...]

CHINESE WHISPERS 26

More kind words from the Book Hook – and someone who can actually compare the experience of the book to the experience of having seen Robert Montgomery’s work in Berlin in the flesh.
