Ginger Baker in Africa

After watching the documentary, Fela Kuti – Music Is The Weapon I came across a great bit short film chronicling Ginger Baker’s travels through Africa.

Dreamy and instrumental with that beautiful look only aged film can offer.

Daikanyama T-Site : Tokyo

Daikanyama T-Site is a new space in Tokyo that breaks the mold of anything on offer at the moment in the city. Exceptionally well-designed by Klein Dytham, the architects behind Shiseido the Ginza, T-Site features shops, a lounge bar-restaurant, and a large Tsutaya (book shop and media rental). Apart from being an amazing space in itself however, the entire complex goes against the majority of current models as it pushes print over digital, rents movies over the counter, and aims to keep its demographic in touch with the materiality of real life… The three central are T-shaped and the cladding itself is made up of tessellated T’s, all representing the Tsutaya brand. For some reason it evokes the Charles Eames quote “We want to create the best for the most for the least.” A place where you can experience elegance and groundedness in one sitting.

Polanski

Really fun publication from Brooklyn, titled Polanski.

Polanski began as a blog of found imagery, which grew a decent following on Tumblr. After a while, pulling found images online and posting it on a blog got old. Polanski needed to be to taken out of a blog format and be something tangible similar to an art zine. We started reaching out to photographers, whose work we enjoyed and reflected what we wanted to see in a publication. Luckily, a lot of them wanted to contribute their work.
