T-POST: Issue #35 – The Tears of a Clown

April 18th, 2008 by kittylaboom

no-35-low.jpg

Isn’t it time we all agreed that no one really enjoys, nor ever has enjoyed the antics or mere presence of a clown?
It’s true and research at the University of Sheffield says it’s official - clowns suck. Since the ‘80s, Hollywood has consistently portrayed clowns as nothing but creepy. And despite the indisputable power of tinsel town, there’s probably a list of rent-a-clowns a mile long in your city’s phone book. Yes clowning is still going strong, it’s the audience that’s becoming extinct.
So do we hate clowns because we never liked them from the start, or is it because decades of movies have turned us against them?

This issue of T-post was designed by London-based, Finnish illustrator and graphic artist Klaus Haapaniemi. One of the hottest British fashion illustrators at the moment, his work seems to be everywhere; from a crockery range for Iittala to prints for Levis, Cacharel, Topshop and D&G. Not to mention the illustrations he did for the storefront windows of Selfridges department stores and the special edition Christmas storybook he made together with celebrity writers such as Madonna’s daughter Lourdes and…eh..David Hasselhoff.

T-post | the wearable magazine…

December 12th, 2007 by kittylaboom

T-post is a wearable magazine. Subscribing to T-post is a lot like having a subscription to a magazine but instead of receiving magazines in your mailbox - you receive T-shirts. As a subscriber you receive a new t-shirt every six weeks based on a current news item. The topic is interpreted by select designers and the written story printed on the inside.

“What’s fascinating about T-post is the interaction. Nobody asks you about the article you just read in the bathroom. But if you’re wearing an issue of T-post, people tend to ask what it’s about. The next thing you know, you’re talking about the ethical treatment of robots or some bank robbers in Brazil who got away with 45 million bucks, you’re forming your own opinion, getting someone else to think about the topic, and it just keeps going. That’s what’s magic about this media, it gives everyone a chance to interpret a news story and communicate it in their own way.“ said Peter Lundgren Editor-in-Chief at T-Post.

Current Issue “Sexual Confusion”
A subscription is 26 EUR per T-shirt, and can be delivered anywhere in the world. All shipping costs are included in that price. For more information visit www.t-post.se

learning to love you more…

October 19th, 2007 by kittylaboom

book_cover_thumb.jpg

Learning to Love You More is both a web site and series of non-web presentations comprised of work made by the general public in response to assignments given by artists Miranda July and Harrell Fletcher. Yuri Ono designs and manages the web site.
Participants accept an assignment, complete it by following the simple but specific instructions, send in the required report (photograph, text, video, etc), and see their work posted on-line. Like a recipe, meditation practice, or familiar song, the prescriptive nature of these assignments is intended to guide people towards their own experience.
Since Learning To Love You More is also an ever-changing series of exhibitions, screenings and radio broadcasts presented all over the world, participant’s documentation is also their submission for possible inclusion in one of these presentations. Past presentations have taken place at venues that include The Whitney Museum in NYC, Rhodes College in Memphis, TN, Aurora Picture Show in Houston, TX, The Seattle Art Museum in Seattle, WA, the Wattis Institute in San Francisco CA, among others.
Since LTLYM inception in 2002 over 5000 people have participated in the project.

If you haven’t checked it out yet, you might as well start at #1 (make a child’s outfit in an adult size) and wear it to the next event…

the beatrice inn NY…

Purple Fashion Magazine, the paradise of the super Editorials….

So who actually is this warm brother on the Cover? ;)

Photographed of my dearest Terry Richardson, no one smaller than the adorable André adorns the Cover of the issue for fall/winter…
Not further exciting if he wouldn’t be the partner of Chloé Sevigny’s brother Paul.
Together they are leading the notorious club Beatrice Inn in New York…

And their concept seems to work: no VIP rooms, no guest lists, no bad music, no crummy parties and no sleazy style. The club is poppin’ like always crowded and the Boheme is apart itself:

monday_night_at_beatrice.jpg

Well, if a hipster, a celebrity, and a Side Car had a child, the Beatrice Inn would be it. Nestled in the heart of the West Village, the Beatrice mixes old-world charm with West Chelsea exclusivity. Don’t believe us? Try showing up on a whim and getting through the door. If, by some chance, you get into the cozy confines, make sure to nab a seat by the building’s original fireplace for your perfect-martini sip-fest.

All in all, Beatrice is living proof that quiet is the new loud in New York…just don’t tell anybody!

Beatrice Inn
285 W. 12th St.
(8th Ave. & W. 4th St.)
