nothing can cure the soul but the senses

making mix cds for a long, long road...

my play-count tells me this was my favourite song of 09...i guess it was, i still think it's beautiful.

do come in, the light's quite perfect

experimental

just some images that made me do a double-take, likely because they are complicated ideas executed simply.

1.from my sketckbook
2.60's hypothetical - verner panton
3. invisible shoe - andreia chaves

scientific temperaments

intense. watch the video here.

these new puritans older tracks are still my default to work to... very much looking fwd to hearing more from hidden (released in jan)

what about your country house, and the life that is led there?

don't you think this holiday home in switzerland belongs in a modern day fairytale?

perfection, i like this very much...

what it dreamed, they made it true

in 1969 the 14yr old jerry levitan snuck into john lennon's hotel room...

I Love You is my personal point of view
on fashion and lifestyle — like a blog, but printed.
said Christiane Bördner


another favourite newsprint magazine is the beautiful
acne paper as well as pie, and this one from 08

this newspaper printing machinery is scarily hypnotic...

(i have not seen such inspiring shoes and socks styling since
this favourite packing and vacuuming editorial from last year!)

something to chill our intelligence

disjointed thoughts - too hot to think today.

is this coke can hypothetical not the saddest proposal ever?

dreams don't always come true. thats why we have;

the moon hung low in the sky like a yellow skull

dark and creepy editorials are often my favourite.
