To celebrate the launch of a new line of sportswear called ‘Gyakusou’ Nike have produced this rather surreal video shot in the jungle of Brazil.

Tawiah

Since her debut EP in 2008, we haven’t heard a huge amount from this hugely talented Soul singer from South London. Her first music video for ‘Teardrop’ is a surreal and visually striking story, showing Tawiah emmersed in her own tears.

Film Review: ‘Flight’ ( With Denzel Washington, Don Cheadle, Kelly Reilly and John Goodman)

Flight Movie

About a week ago I was invited to the Premiere of ‘Flight’ the latest film starring Denzel Washington. Directed by Robert Zemeckis, the man responsible for Back to the Future and Forrest Gump, it’s hard not to imagine this being an entertaining movie.

Is it a great movie? Well, the now ubiquitous phrase, ‘…you can’t go wrong with a Denzel movie,’ is certainly fitting, as Washington excels at portraying a gifted alcoholic pilot named Whip, who manages to save a plane with it’s two hundred passengers from certain death. And he does this with his usual skill and charisma.

Exhibition: Infra by Chris Shen

INFRA09

Kicking off 2013 at 18 Hewett street in Shoreditch tonight is an exhibition devoted to the infra-red remote.

It’s been nearly 60 years since the recently departed Eugene Polly invented the now ubiquitous device. As an homage to the man and his creation Chris Shen has turned the tables and created a screen out of hundreds of discarded remotes, which reveals an image through infra-red glasses.

INFRA01

Interesting idea huh? If you’re intrigued then head down to 18 Hewett Street London EC2A 3NN
 before the 3rd of February!
