T. Enami | 1890’s Stereoview Photography
Remember that I wrote a piece on Trichromatic Photography, and that Maurice wrote a piece on 3D Images? Well… this is a little something of both. Although, this is not really Trichromatic Photography… it looks like it, so it’s good enough for me.

New Logo | Meiji
Nice surprise that few companies are changed Logo while I’m not in Japan. Meiji is one of big chocolate company and the new logo is done by Landor Japan (Sorry it japanese).

NEW YORK!
I have been here in NYC for a few days now and having a blast.

Above is the memorable performance they gave at MTV Awards this year
Reflected | Alessi meets Andy Warhol
Alessi and Andy Warhol are big names in design, which makes it a no brainer that both have their own brand of watches. Reflected, a new online store, is exclusively selling both brands and going online tomorrow, Saturday 24 October. I have met a couple times with Tim and Jordi, the two partners of Reflected, and figured out that like AJANAKU, they are out to inspire others. We are therefore becoming their preferred online magazine and will keep you all informed with the great new models they get in.

This documentary has been out on DVD now for a while now, but has no really reached the audience here in Europe. The screening was made that little bit more special by the presence of Kevin Chapados, the director of the Documentary, who at the end of the screening lead a fun discussion with the audience.
