Lounge by Libratone
We introduced you in May “Beat” the Libratone wireless speaker. The scandinavian firm (Norway), has just announced the release of “Lounge” in September, a living-room speakers system specially designed to work with televisions. On the same aesthetic and the same principle as its predecessor, Lounge uses the Apple AirPlay technology to receive the sound from any audio device. [...]
Overtime
Directed in 2004 by Oury Atlan, Thibault Berland and Damien Ferrie, then students of Supinfocom Valenciennes, “Overtime” is an animation of 5 minutes tributing to Jim Henson, the puppeteer and creator of the Muppet Show. The movie, non-speaking, black and white, deals with time, its overflowing, its presence or its contrary, the absence. A little masterwork, full of references, [...]
Moments with Aloe Blacc, Mihalj Kekenj & Jaybo
At the beginning of the spring, in the wonderful cultural complex of Berlin MADE, three great artists met and offered us a “creative moment”. A concert taking back Michael Jackson‘s “Billie Jean” and five songs of the soul singer Aloe Blacc interpreted by Mihalj « Miki » Kekenj and his string-quintet. Impulsed by the music, the painter Jaybo Monk [...]
Trash Land by José Ferreira
Imagine yourself, child of the new century, accustomed to glamour, over-brilliance and desirable, suddenly exposed to the third-world, its misery, smells and, for us, drug-addicted to post-modernity, its inconceivable effectiveness. Well, that’s what, more or less, the young portuguese photographer José Ferreira lived during his trip to Mozambique. At a few steps from the national airport of [...]
Holman House by Durbach Block Jaggers
Similar at the O House and also sat on the top of a 70 meters cliff, the Holman House is inspired by Picasso’s Batcher. Sinuous, fluid, the structure overflows its basis to offer a dramatic view on the ocean. Imagined by the Durban Block Jaggers studio, and dwelled in 2004 at Dover Heights (Sidney – [...]
Slaine – Trail of Blood
Greatly directed by Los Silva, the “Trail of Blood” clip introduces the highly expected album of the bostonian mc/actor Slaine. Released on Suburban Noize Records and entitled “A World With No Skies 2.0″, the LP had been postponed several times due to samples issues. The track “Trail of Blood”, produced by Statik Selektah, deals with drug addiction and murder, [...]
Precious Mirror by Les M
By the french design studio Les M (Céline Merhand & Anaïs Morel), here is Precious, a mirror of 50x40x10cm from witch can laterally come out small drawers or a hanging rail. Practical and sober, the object is declined in several colors for a little bit of eccentricity. In a bathroom , a student room or a hall, [...]

The movie had been rewarded with the « Jean Luc Xiberras de la première oeuvre » award at the Annecy Festival 2010, a prize highly deserved looking to the captivating world.

Given at the beginning of the month during the Photographic Festival of Arles, the Leica Oskar Barnack Award rewarded the danish Jan Grarup’s series “Haiti Aftermath”. The project shows the extent and the consequences of the haitian seism happened in January 2010. A distressing report that brings back to the foreground a drama hidden by [...]
