Dazzle camouflage
Just found this on the world wide web. Very nice wikipedia article about dazzle painting. ‘Complex pattern of geometric shapes in contrasting colours’, that’s the way we like it!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dazzle_camouflage
‘Dazzle camouflage, also known as Razzle Dazzle or Dazzle painting, was a camouflage paint scheme used on ships, extensively during World War I and to a lesser extent in World War II. Credited to artist Norman Wilkinson, it consisted of a complex pattern of geometric shapes in contrasting colours, interrupting and intersecting each other.’
SYNCHRONATOR device
A few years ago Bas van Kolwijk (media artist) and Gert-Jan Prins (musician who builts his own machines) told me of their quest for a perfect device to translate audio into video signal. If you check the samples and their own stuff the made with the device and if your a media artist, this is a must have!!!!! Be quick because it’s limited!
Last summer they released a 10 track DVD on the small Cavity label. Its a reflection of their performances with their device.
GUNS for sale
Gestalten verlag is a German publisher specialized in great books on art, design, music, popculture.

A series of must haves If you want to you can paint them but I would say keep it white fot the best result….
CARSTEN NICOLAI grid index
A few years ago Gestalten Verlag in Germany published the standard on vector design with Neubau Welt and now they deliver us Grid Index by musician, sound artist Carsten Nicolai the new inspiration standard for grids.
You might know Nicolai from his Raster Noton label and his endless aliases he has been publishing music with Alva Noto, Opto, Cyclo, Signal to name a few. The Raster Noton label next to the music is distinctive for its graphic design. Its style has been copied by many but it is so clear when you have a record from the label there will be no doubt about it. For years Nicolai has been also making artwork for exhibitions. Read more »
MS take-over
What is going on with this world? Microsoft is to take over IKEA? What? Yes, Just got this pointed out by a friend. IKEA is working on a global make-over of their logo. It’s going from their futura type logo (which is amazingly powerful) to Verdana. The disgusting type used by Microsoft as it’s standard in all their software (check if you don’t believe this). We have a pic to proof it:
it’s a shame, a goddamn shame. Cheaper then this it won’t get….
I typed in IKEA change over in google and noticed a great discussion, do it!

SATURN NEVER SLEEPS
Ever since a good friend of mine introduced me to the wonderful world of Sun Ra I’m blown away by his inspiring thoughts and sometimes sublime music. I say with some reservation sometimes because I still feel it difficult to find my way through his out put, both in writing and in music. His drive and creativity is so fascinating that he is for me in the same league as William Burroughs, Marcel Duchamp, Kurt Schwitters and Jack Smith. Read more »
