Tonight in Berlin: Supreme Opening

Saturday, December 1, 2012

I remember seeing the first Supreme ads in the Beastie Boys’ own Grand Royal magazine, not long after the now-world renowned shop on NYC’s Lafayette St. opened its doors to the public.

Pilgrim Marketing Plan Rebuttal: Take Seven

Saturday, November 10, 2012

The hard sounding peoples, ain’t nothing can’t get between us

Win our idle pink girl, our bodies by wraith division
The moonlight and donnin’ cloud glistenin’ glazed, that we giftin
Every sound, we trying to mash and attention
We bung the latest [...]

Literarischer Ausritt Pt. 1

Friday, August 10, 2012

Earlier this week, a great young writer from New York told me over beers that authors like Barthelme and Coover are really not such a big deal in the States. Truly a shame, I think, and what’s worse: even less people seem to have heard of Walter Abish’s incredible How German Is It. It’s about [...]
