mr. donald cumming. i’ve been listening to your shit and never realized it was you. model tracks generally suck, but you made it baby. still love your face, and scoring behati in your vid never hurts either. see you in munster germany. by dd
and why not… mr. finn andrews. by dd
i had all but forgotten about this song by the veils, but well, this is basically how i felt all weekend. by dd
well, it’s about time brands thought outside of the usual venues. in this case, sound serves as the centerpiece in the latest release from sony, soundville. it is a short film that documents three days in the life of the icelandic town of seydisfjordur after it’s been transformed into a giant soundsystem. the project brought in a surprising range of collaborators—from seydisfjordur’s townspeople themselves, to sigur ros’ concert team and musician fede cabral.
how did you come up with this particular idea? what inspired you?
i was buying milk while listening to stockhausen on my headphones. i felt everyone should be listening too.
it’s really, really, amazing, and makes me want to be in iceland now. by dd + kt
i saw this film by the belgian director/screenwriter jaco van dormael i think over 10 years ago, and i remember i cried in the theater. maybe it was because i saw it only months after my father passed away. not that it was a sad film, on the contrary it’s very fun, but there was something painfully honest about it. i really loved it then, and i’m so curious to see it again. unfortunately unavailable on netflix, making it a good find and a nice gift. by uh
“lars von trier’s ‘antichrist’ screened this year at the cannes film festival. the ‘antichrist’, written by danish film director lars von trier, is an intense drama about evil, power and love between two people, featuring charlotte gainsbourg and willem dafoe.” tickets available at the 47th NYFF09.
add it to your list. a film about about a couple who retreat to their woodland cabin to heal after the death of their child. way out into the wilderness: apparently not for the meek, in one reviewer’s words: “I thought I had my head down a lavatory, frankly,” said baz bamigboye of britain’s daily mail, the journalist who asked von trier to justify his film. by dd
but this butterfly deserves a post… man of principles, champ, gentleman, and when necessary draft dodger. and what a great choice of track. mind you bruce lee based his fancy foot works on none but ali himself. by xy
new york fashion week ain’t over and the midnight dance session at the jane is still hovering over my head, but then i saw this and laughed big time. we must look like retards on the dance floor next to these guys. so lame, so tame, so goody-two-jane compared to our grandparents. see if you can spot grandma flipping over the boy that could have been your grandpa… somebody teach me something ; 0 by dd
the mission one electric bike, designed by our good friends at fuse project, has achieved a world record of 150.059 miles/hour at the bonneville speedway salt flats. now of course the big question regarding the world record is: how many electric bikes are out there to begin with?
the mission one is admittedly of the best looking bikes in the crotch rocket category, which is a hard one to pull off (see our post on another category: the elsinore and yet another category the royal enfield) but given its electric powerhouse, it is the most green of them all. the mission one bike can be reserved prior to launch for as little as $68,995 (tires are included). well done mr. yves behar, may the force remain with you. by dd
