LITERATURE ON THE DANCEFLOOR

Thursday, March 4, 2010

As an interview magazine that also is involved in running a fashion label, a photography studio and in hosting a range of events, the new experiment by the German independent publisher Blumenbar is just our cup of tea: in an attempt to attract the so-called ‘Generation Internet’ to the written page, Blumenbar opted to bring [...]

EARLY YEARS

It speaks for itself that the most central tract of land in the Polish capital will soon [...]

IMPOSSIBLE GEOMETRIES

Monday, February 22, 2010

Last night, I stopped by the opening of 177 Livingston, a terrific new space in downtown Brooklyn. This long-empty storefront will house three wonderful organizations: the online magazine Triple Canopy, the electronic arts gallery Light Industry, and the New York incarnation of the Public School, a “a school with no curriculum” with chapters in Los [...]

Tuesday, February 9, 2010

Even though it’s probably way safer to stay inside and just read about Walking In Ice, you should really come down to Motto Mitte tonight (see below) and check out Sam’s reading. Here’s a review I wrote about And yet, and yet… when I first discovered his little publishing enterprise:

HENRIK OF ALL TRADES

Thursday, February 4, 2010

Fashion prankster Henrik Vibskov will be showing some graphic works tomorrow at Pool Gallery in Berlin. If you don’t know what to make of Vibskov, neither do we. Some adore him, others can’t take him seriously, while we’re just puzzled. But our guess is, this is exactly the way he likes it.

TRANSMEDIA EXPRESS

Wednesday, January 27, 2010

Just as Berlin Fashion Week has left town, the next festival is around the corner in this night-obsessed city: the annual electronic music extravaganza known as Club Transmediale will open its doors tomorrow for a 10-day marathon with the finest, weirdest, noisiest, quietest, obscurest sounds that the basements, back rooms and garages of this planet [...]
