Carol | March 7th, 2012

Jan Zabeil cleans up politics
Felix | March 7th, 2012
A documentary report about the foreign cleaning personnel in the German Bundestag is one of the more interesting works from Zabeil. Born in 1981 in Berlin, he studied photography in Potsdam-Babelsberg from 2003 to 2009.

Although she is a famous dj and electronic music producer (she works with the authentic German DJ Hell), Romina Cohn is a film director. She wrote and directed several video clips and short films such as Kill -about a frustrating band tribute to Kiss-, which competed in international festivals and was a finalist in Bafici. Read More

Jorge Pedro | March 6th, 2012
Berto and Majo are so young that they’re barely adults. But they’re already a trendy topic. They split their time between college and Concierto Cable, their music project which this month begins its second season.
Miyazaki’s Latest Masterpiece (hopefully)
Patrick | February 24th, 2012

Man of the World from Brazil
Carol | February 23rd, 2012
It doesn’t matter where he is, a man of the world is expected to be irreverent. In Brazil, this guy walks between different tribes and places, always feeling at home. It is him who brings novelty to his party, always being the first to sport new stuff. He might attend either to a samba in Lapa, as well as to a party at someone’s beach house. Read More

What is a Man of the World like in Mexico City?
Jorge Pedro | February 22nd, 2012
Photography by Braulio Tenorio
There are two expressions specifically designed to describe Mexico City: the most transparent region in the air, and the city of palaces. Neither talks about the impersonal buildings or the most polluted city in the country. I propose a new definition: capital of the world. Ambitious! People from New York, Paris and London might disagree. But I do not intend to compete with such cities; all I want is to present a new perspective, some horizontal thinking. What makes Paris an international city, for instance? The same things that make Mexico City a capital of the world (not “The” capital of the world): different social, economic and historical strata coexisting in equilibrium with their own heartbeat.

Still from Death of the Gorilla by Peter Mays
Los Angeles has been overrun with events put on as part of the Pacific Standard Time initiative of the Getty Foundation; far too many to actually keep up with. Read More
Roku’s TV-Streaming USB Stick
Patrick | February 3rd, 2012
Most people I know tend to watch TV on their computers at this point, but plenty of them still have a television taking up space in their living room, it just isn’t hooked up to cable. Read More
Vanessa Bruno’s beautiful imagery
Dori | February 3rd, 2012
It seems that videos are getting more recognition on many magazine or news websites. Whenever something with a slight viral potential is put into the web it goes everywhere. Some more demanding pieces are not that visible like the new Vanessa Bruno’s film, which only could be found on fashion sites. Maybe some got bored of these Ryan McGinley’s style poetic, painting-like miniature films? I am not!
