Opening Ceremony AW 2010
Even if it’s 30 degrees outside I had to post these pictures of the upcoming Opening Ceremony winter collection. You can always trust in Opening Ceremony. The contrasting shapes, the subtle play with transparency and texture and especially the deep green velvet jacket are simply awesome!

As I was passing by a vintage furniture shop close to Schlesisches Tor two weeks ago, I immediately fell in love with this small Danish Design table from the late Fifties. Their selection of design pieces is great and the price range appropriate.

In times when songwriting get worse the music industry tend to focus on their music videos to get in the media. So happened to Lady Gaga - you all know this weak telephone blah song or better: the vid - and apparently also to Kylie Minogue. “All the lovers” sounds like ZDF Fernsehgarten and the video revisits old ideas such as from “Slow” from 2003 in this filmic...
I wish I could join the 11th birthday of one of my favourite clubs.

Michelangelo Antonioni’s Il deserto rosso (1964)
A yellow fog—part meteorological, part industrial—permeates an anonymous manufacturing town in northern Italy. Gray buildings rise from the landscape while Giuliana, on the verge of an emotional collapse, wanders in an unwelcoming environment that is altogether modern, manmade, and remote.
Screened at...

Analoge Jugend is the great new blog of my friend Chris. It’s about the last generation of kids growing up without social media, digital cameras and a desperate force of self-expression.

Camille Claudel Les Causeuses (1897) Onyx / Marble / Bronze, Paris Musée Rodin
Camille Claudel is a sculptor who gained notoriety in the eighties of the last century. Wrongly the main reason for her rediscovery was her tragic life: The fateful encounter with Auguste Rodin and her frenzy which dominated the second half of her life. What’s far more interesting about her: She brought new...

Sometimes all you have to fear is fear itself as smart guy Franklin D. Roosevelt once said. And as a fan of satire I’ve made this man inspecting an astronaut & astronaut inspecting man as a fun comment on our quest for alien life. Yet we are still alien to ourselves. Hopefully this necklace will encourage the wearer to look within themselves for the answers they seek. Plus it looks...
