    Suzuki Nao is an artist that attacks all mediums: video, photography (traditional and mobile), painting, sculptures… She’s done VJ performances, and had a few gallery shows already. Based in Yokohama, where she shares a studio space (Ateliero-Eksperimentoj) with a band, she is currently preparing some video work for a contest. Robert wrote this about her…

    Uniqlo have a new series of tees out based on various fonts. The Eurostile pictured above is actually part of an old collection, and I couldn’t find images of the news ones (which are much nicer) on their website (I read about them in this week’s TOKYO WALKER). At 1000 yen, I think I might…

    Momus recently got a new iBook, and in his post about it he mentions the annoyance of not having a region free setting for his DVD drive. This is something I can relate to as I’ve also got a DVD collection that spans the globe, and so I’m limited to watching on my Hong Kong…

    I forget to mention it, but I recently got a Gmail beta account (thanks again, KS). The big features are that you get 1GB of space for your stuff, and that since it’s from Google there are advanced search features. Haven’t played around with it that much, but I was mostly happy to get one…

    Waste away the hours by having a look at Japanese designer Yoshimaru Shin’s superbly titled YOSHIRUMACHINE site. Seems like he’s involved in the organization of quite a few events, like a recent one for the band Tennis Coats (and their label Majikick), and an upcoming one (July 18) at Uplink Gallery for 360records’ Miroque.
