<p>Copyright law and what to do with it. A hard nutshell to crack. A discussion that has been going on for decades and one I do not really want to share my opinion on as different parties state different facts which make it hard to draw a line in it all.</p>
<p>I remember how when I was a kid tape and VHS cassettes used to be pirated on a large scale and were sold on local markets. I saw Napster and other services come up later on in life and I saw some of these services disappear as quick while others became larger than life. Evolution and revolution at the same time one might say and interesting times none the less.</p>
<p>Piracy, whether music/video or designer handbags, is something that will always be around in my opinion. What everyone must realise though is that creative people deserve to make a living. A liner note which our younger generations can hardly grasp as they never really grew up to value music for instance.They love music, they talk about &amp; share it with their friends and they especially also download it. Logical in my opinion as they&#8217;re growing up in a digital environment with unlimited access to something with no value due to that reason.</p>
<p>Kids nowadays do not grow up in record stores. Flicking through hundreds and hundreds of records, looking for that one album cover to draw their attention, ordering limited edition releases from Japan, &#8230; They just can&#8217;t value the carrier which a CD or vinyl is for some older generations.</p>
<p>Now I do not want to <em>blame everything on the kids</em>, as older generations also download huge volumes. But I do want to explain  that current tactics fighting piracy do not work in my opinion. One must educate people and learn kids how to appreciate creativity. And that&#8217;s the hard part as one does not have the impression that they are hurting someone with a harmless download.</p>
<p>As stated, a long discussion and one with mixed opinions &#8230;</p>
<p>Now I stumbled upon the following clip. Its a clip in which director Simon Klose explains why he needs your support to finish the documentary called <em>TPB AFK</em>. This stand for The Pirate Bay Away From Keyboard. Its a documentary on the<em> notorious filesharing website The Pirate Bay, a long-standing enemy of the movie &amp; music industry. In this documentary Simon follows the three founders of the site, and their reactions to being found guilty of being accessory to crime against copyright law and fined over 3.6 million dollars.</em></p>
<p>There&#8217;s already over 200 hours of footage saved up and there are plans to record more during the founders&#8217; appeal against their previous verdict, which is set for less than a month from now, on 28 September, 2010. In three days, the director already raised over $30,000 on to pay for a professional editor and use of an editing suite in putting together the full length feature.</p>

<p>The court case, the political parties that have been started across several continents, <a href="http://thepiratebay.org/legal" target="_blank">the threats which get hilarious answers</a>, &#8230; all interesting and something which many have been following up close for a long time now. All I can say: crazy Swedes. Hope they&#8217;ve got a <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Out-of-the-Blog/96558346178?ref=ts" target="_blank"><em>stay out of jail for free</em></a> card <img src='http://outoftheblog.com/think/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> .</p>

<p>I grew up among denim. My father has been working for one of the world&#8217;s largest denim companies for like forever. It gave me an edge on many, a close viewing point of changes within the industry throughout the passed decade or so.</p>
<p>I remember visiting factories and being amazed by the process, the huge washing machines for stone wash effects or sandblasting denim for that rough/used look. I remember being asked to go fit new models and other clothes for the designers, doing summer jobs within the company, &#8230;</p>
<p>Come to think of it there&#8217;s a lot I have always loved about denim. I love its smell, its feel and its look. You can never go bad with a good pair of jeans in my opinion. Come to think of it I have an almost denim exclusive closet, sponsored off course <img src='http://outoftheblog.com/think/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Now I know you must be wondering where the hell I found the inspiration for this post?! Well, it was the following clip that triggered everything for me. A clip I just on <a href="http://www.matixclothing.com/" target="_blank">Matix</a>, a company that recently launched its Capital Collection, which is <em>a premium line of made and sourced in the USA denim, T-shirts, and cut-and-sew pieces</em>. Each item in their line is hand made by American workers in the USA, something rare in this day and age of low-cost sewing facilities in Asia &amp; Africa. Something to ponder upon when you consider blue jeans were born in the US of A originally.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="480" height="271" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=14192092&amp;server=vimeo.com&amp;show_title=0&amp;show_byline=0&amp;show_portrait=0&amp;color=&amp;fullscreen=1&amp;autoplay=0&amp;loop=0" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="480" height="271" src="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=14192092&amp;server=vimeo.com&amp;show_title=0&amp;show_byline=0&amp;show_portrait=0&amp;color=&amp;fullscreen=1&amp;autoplay=0&amp;loop=0" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>Anyways, time to iron some jeans <a href="http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Out-of-the-Blog/96558346178?ref=ts" target="_blank">straight out of the dryer</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="aligncenter" src="http://gadgetsin.com/uploads/2010/01/elecom_suntries_drugs_headphones_3.jpg" alt="" width="480" height="336" /></p>
<p><em>I-dosing is a method of intoxication that is delivered by sound. </em><em>Kids put on their headphones, drape a hood over their head and drift off into the world of ‘digital highs’. They believe the repetitive drone-like music will give them a ‘high’ that takes them out of reality. </em></p>
<p>Is it? Or is it just a placebo effect? For as far as I have been able to uncover it must be a combination of several aspects. Now, I am no fancy scientist/researcher but I do know how to read up on things. Most of the stuff I came across suggest that the specific sounds, especially if played with your eyes covered and a relaxed body, can bring one into a state of trance.</p>
<p>As with everything, some people may be more susceptible to the experience than others off course and  I can perfectly grasp the fact that the so-called <em>binaural beats</em>, which researchers have clearly documented, can bring forth<em> temporary changes</em> in peoples brain activity but after listening to several of the recordings I did not feel anything except annoyance really <img src='http://outoftheblog.com/think/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Annoyance also because I am sick and tired of seeing crap like this being pushed by the press, especially when it concerns <em>young folk</em>. Belgian mainstream media gets the first prize each and every time for pushing <em>foreign hype-able content</em> (news, <em>fait divers</em>, stats, &#8230;) and claiming its relevant locally.</p>
<p>If we are to believe our beloved reporters i-dosing is happening all over the world. <em>See that kid in the busstop with the headphones?</em> I-dosing right as we speak <img src='http://outoftheblog.com/think/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Lets say it as it is: if you had kept your mouth shut, a whole majority of youngsters would never have heard of it and probably would never have gone on to try it out.</p>

<p>Always loved the Nike Air Max 90 and own a couple of pairs myself.

Yes, also know as the <em>gabber</em>shoe <img src='http://outoftheblog.com/think/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  A pity, as it can be considered as a great piece of design.</p>
<p>As the <em>Nike Air Max 90 Infrared</em> has just been released, <em>Primitive shoes</em> asked <a href="http://twitter.com/justenejaro" target="_blank">Justene Jaro</a> to show them off.

<p><a href="http://outoftheblog.com/think/2010/06/offf-2010-nostalgia-for-a-past-future-part-i/" target="_blank">As promised</a>, part 2 <em>offf</em> what we saw the passed days in Paris. <a href="http://outoftheblog.com/think/2010/06/offf-2010-nostalgia-for-a-past-future-part-i/" target="_blank">You can read all about the first day overhere.</a></p>
<p><strong>Friday &#8211; Big beamers keep on beaming</strong></p>
<p><em>An experienced person is just someone that&#8217;s made a lot of mistakes. Hoss is very experienced. This is your opportunity to listen to Hoss do his first ever &#8216;acoustic set&#8217; ? An intimate sharing of lessons learned, punctuated by the odd bit of work, including his latest collaboration with Rob Chiu, and a very simple explanation of how to be profitable on Apple&#8217;s App Store. . </em>That&#8217;s what the description stated and I regret that we only caught<em> <a href="http://www.flamjam.com/" target="_blank">Hoss Gifford</a></em>&#8216;s presentation halfway true.</p>
<p>Pity as his<em> Things I have learned</em> was really interesting. Not a shocking<em> </em>keynote<em> </em>but a collection of insights &amp; stories that anyone who&#8217;s good in what he does should already have experienced but it was nice as I considered it a little fresh-up course.</p>
<p><em>&#8220;Don&#8217;t do anything for free and do not give discounts to new clients as you will never taste the same afterwards&#8221;</em> is the one that stuck to me the most. An ongoing discussion I have had with a couple of people lately and his comparison was great. &#8220;<em>Its like going to the supermarket, buying 6 yoghurts for the price of 4 and afterwards not finding the same deal.&#8221;</em> A wise &amp; <strong>bold</strong> statement. One to ponder upon amongst others!</p>
<p>Hilarious was also the fact he made an iphone app which has paid his lunch every day. <a href="http://itsaclock.flamjam.com/" target="_blank">An app that gives you the time, more or less <img src='http://outoftheblog.com/think/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> </a></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" src="http://www.taramcpherson.com/work_images/DBD97F_fullsize.JPG" alt="" width="480" height="521" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em>&#8220;Unicorns farting glitter metal band names&#8221;</em></p>
<p>He was soon followed by <a href="http://www.taramcpherson.com/" target="_blank"><em>Tara Mcpherson</em></a>. I bet you have seen work by her already! A great artist besides being a hot girl with tats (something you do not see a lot on stage at #offf) <img src='http://outoftheblog.com/think/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' />  I am all for more girl designers, &#8230; taking the stage next time around <img src='http://outoftheblog.com/think/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><em><img class="alignleft" src="http://www.taramcpherson.com/work_images/D4F27C_fullsize.JPG" alt="" width="172" height="227" /></em><em>Tara is an artist based out of New York City. Creating art about people and their odd ways, her characters seem to exude an idealized innocence with a glimpse of hard earned wisdom in their eyes. She exhibits her paintings and serigraphs in fine art galleries all over the world. Named the crown princess of poster art by ELLE Magazine, she has created numerous gig posters for rock bands such as Beck, Modest Mouse, and Melvins. Her array of art also includes creating toys with companies like Kidrobot, Dark Horse, and Toy2R, painted comics and covers for DC Vertigo, advertising and editorial illustrations for companies such as Wyden+Kennedy and Spin Magazine, and teaching a class at Parsons in NYC. </em>A lot of stuff you can know her from and worth a look at <img src='http://outoftheblog.com/think/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> <em><br />
</em></p>
<p>The program states that <a href="http://www.firstbornmultimedia.com/" target="_blank">Firstborn</a> came after her? Can not really remember from the top of my head what they showed us, so I will just refer to their website <img src='http://outoftheblog.com/think/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Knife Party I do remember vividly. It was the point were a little voice inside my head yelled &#8220;finally&#8221; as our visual appetite had grown more hungry. <a href="http://coalitionofthewilling.org.uk/" target="_blank">&#8216;Coalition of the Willing</a>&#8216; is an animated film about an online war against global warming in a post-Copenhagen world. It was written by Tim Rayner, who is the brains behind the campaign in this digital struggle against global warming following the failed summit. Bare in mind that the following animation is a collaboration between lots and lots of people who ech took upon themselves a part of the film.</p>

<p>Universal Everything continued to nurture our longing for great stuff. These are the guys who did the international MTV rebrand which means that all you guys have seen their stuff passby. I will let the following clip speak for itself but google them!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="400" height="225" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=8173518&amp;server=vimeo.com&amp;show_title=0&amp;show_byline=0&amp;show_portrait=0&amp;color=ffffff&amp;fullscreen=1" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="225" src="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=8173518&amp;server=vimeo.com&amp;show_title=0&amp;show_byline=0&amp;show_portrait=0&amp;color=ffffff&amp;fullscreen=1" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>

<p>They also did some short reveal films for AOL&#8217;s relaunch for instance. These got used in web video, mobile, digital campaigns and outdoor LED displays. Nice stuff to say the least <img src='http://outoftheblog.com/think/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

<p>You can find more stuff <a href="http://www.vimeo.com/universal">on their Vimeo</a> which is worth going through.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4141/4735846445_b621be7e43.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4141/4735846445_b621be7e43.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="369" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><em>Goodby &amp; Silverstein</em> are the big boys who took the stage. They are the agency who brought us the awesome HP ads with <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fsE0g-8CDQo" target="_blank">Jigga</a>, <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-FhiIV6srJ0" target="_blank">Gwen Stefani</a>, <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BraU_cpfBeI" target="_blank">Jerry Seinfeld</a>, &#8230; But they also did this campaign/viral for Häagen-Dazs in order to draw attention on their bee program. Hilarious Home<em>bees <img src='http://outoftheblog.com/think/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> </em></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="425" height="344" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/OPpLUQEObhA&amp;hl=nl_NL&amp;fs=1&amp;color1=0xe1600f&amp;color2=0xfebd01" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="344" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/OPpLUQEObhA&amp;hl=nl_NL&amp;fs=1&amp;color1=0xe1600f&amp;color2=0xfebd01" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>Then something totally different followed: <a href="http://sosolimited.com/" target="_blank">SoSo Limited</a>. These guys take word clouds to a master level <img src='http://outoftheblog.com/think/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> <em> </em>as they are specialised in<em> interactive installation and audiovisual performance. They create immersive works that play on the immediacy of live media </em>by creating<em> </em>word art by the analysis of what is said. I can not describe it all that well bt the following clips will emlighten you I guess. The first one for instance is a four minute edit remixing the ministerial debates from the UK.</p>

<p><strong>Saturday &#8211; The return<br />
</strong></p>
<address> </address>
<p>We had to skip the festival Saturday. Other stuff called. Pity as I heard it was the best day. Crowd seemed enthusiastic and some of the previous organisational problems belonged to the past.</p>
<p>That being said, it is a great festival with a good vibe, but we have some liner notes for the band <img src='http://outoftheblog.com/think/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<ul>
<li>communicate better, it is clear that this is not the organisations cup of tea</li>
<li>queues ain&#8217;t good, if you say you can pick up passes earlier stick to it (we travelled a day earlier to the venue for nothing!)</li>
<li>good WiFi = a must have</li>
<li>more sanitary provisions</li>
<li>venues? how about signposting these or at least getting your organization to know where what is <img src='http://outoftheblog.com/think/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </li>
<li>check peoples tickets, we met a couple of people who got in for free where we paid full price #sad</li>
</ul>
<p>Btw, its 2010 and we&#8217;re in a post-digital time as you all know. Organising means to get all digital communication streamlined can be great. Tell people what tags to use for their pictures, &#8230; and give them the tools at the venue in order to share their experiences.</p>
<p>Do not want to end negative though as I had a great time and will recommend the conference to anyone who&#8217;s interested in this kind of stuff. Maybe we should finish with the end titles for the sponsors. Yet another great piece of work!

<p style="text-align: left;"><em>Captain’s log, Saturday 26th June. Returning from Offf 2010 in Paris. Thalys is on time. Mission accomplished.</em></p>

<address style="text-align: left;"><em>What follows is a quick overview of 4 days Paris (or at least the first two).<br />
</em></address>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Wednesday &#8211; Check-in for a day in the Sun</strong></p>
<address style="text-align: left;"> </address>
<p style="text-align: left;">Travelled a day earlier to Paris as I had some spots &amp; shops I had been meaning to visit for a while. This meant an early wake-up call in order to catch the Thalys. The call of sneaker, book, &#8230; stores &amp; great street art was loud. I could smell it in the air <img src='http://outoftheblog.com/think/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Arriving in Paris we first headed to our shelter: <a href="http://www.hidden-hotel.com/" target="_blank">Hidden Hotel</a>. One of the people behind this concept lodging was so kind to invite us for a stay in their great little hotel while in Paris. Its located in the heart of Paris, a small side street, just 800m or so from the Arc de Triomphe. I can only recommend a stay as its something I had never seen before. I recon I might right a more indepth review on it one of these days <img src='http://outoftheblog.com/think/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Once we dropped of our lugage and put on some better clothing (hot as hell in Paris passed days) we were <em>offf</em> for some sightseeing and urban discoveries. You can f<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/andrewvassallo/sets/72157624362643126/" target="_blank">ind some pictures overhere</a> and yes, I took way to little pics this time <img src='http://outoftheblog.com/think/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4136/4735802109_c57f00f2ab.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="333" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Thursday &#8211; Queuing for beginners<br />
</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Two hours! Deux heures! Dos whatever! Yes, the amount of time we spent queuing in the shade/sun that Thursday morning. Boring as hell by the way and the reason we missed the opening note <img src='http://outoftheblog.com/think/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' />  But no worries as we were in!</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">In order to kick <em>offf</em> in style I suggest you have a look at the great opening credits. It gives you an overview of who we saw come by.</p>

<p style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://hellohikimori.com/" target="_blank">HELLOHIKIMORI</a> was the first to really kick off the cool stuff for us. Warming up I guess as we had to get into the right set of mind for the next few days.<em><br />
</em></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">I was also looking forward to seeing the <a href="http://outoftheblog.com/think/2010/03/logorama-part-ii-the-full-version-2/" target="_blank">guys from H5, mentioned their Oscar winning Logorama before</a>, but heard they chickened out <img src='http://outoftheblog.com/think/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  I think they might just have got stuck in Cannes with the train strike which was going on or something else. Too bad they couldn&#8217;t continue. Early lunch so!</p>

I was intrigued by his bizarre and beautiful typeface experiments. Check out his site <strong><a href="http://www.wordsarepictures.co.uk/" target="_blank"><strong>Words Are Pictures</strong></a> </strong>to see and learn more, including some really impressive letterpress illustrations.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">In his presentation, Craig demonstrated<em> his continuing education in typography while tracing his evolution from designer to typographer to story teller. </em>Fancy words to state he does cool stuff with lettering <img src='http://outoftheblog.com/think/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

Shot in LA and Palm Springs, the film is based on a new poem by Writer, Brett Darling.</em></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Later on we got to see Marc &amp; Sara from Wooster Collective take the stage. Great talk for a fascinated crowd. A crowd that does not follow their blog/site as I had seen everyting they showed us previously <img src='http://outoftheblog.com/think/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  I bet they got a new following after this.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">They followed what I like to call one prick &amp; 3 French guys <em>(<em>Neville Brody, the British graphic designer together with the people from </em><em><a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/Bazookaproduction" target="_blank">Bazooka</a>)</em></em>. Some old school fellas who were going to set us young kids straight. They taught they could shock us with &#8216;pornoghraphic images&#8217; &#8230; #fail &amp; out of luck guys. You all get the figurative <em>ball sack</em> as you sucked monkey balls.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Just headed on out from there so. Enough is enough <img src='http://outoftheblog.com/think/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Stay tuned though as tomorrow morning part II with some stuff that&#8217;s really worth a view &amp; read. My sincere apologies if its all a bit chaotic but there really is too much stuff to share <img src='http://outoftheblog.com/think/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Out-of-the-Blog/96558346178?ref=ts" target="_blank">Out</a>.</p>

<p>Back to London. I&#8217;ve been meaning to wrote something on the whole <em>fixie culture </em>overthere. Fixed gears galore in London or at least a lot of bikes that look like one as I have a slight feeling part are single gears meant to look like fixies (can&#8217;t blame &#8216;em though as they ain&#8217;t cheap).</p>

<p>Just a bit further from our lodge we came across <a href="http://14bikeco.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">14BikeCo</a>. Lets just say its a central point for fixie culture in LDN and surroundings.</p>
<p>So if you find yourself in the vicinity and are into bikes you should definitely drop on by. Friendly guys overther who know their wheels.</p>

<p>In the meantime I bought myself a new bike couple of weeks back for the city. Nothing fancy, Trek Hybrid bike, but it gets me along just fine for know while I wait for the perfect frame to drop in front of me <img src='http://outoftheblog.com/think/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Out-of-the-Blog/96558346178?ref=ts" target="_blank">Out</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-3462" href="http://outoftheblog.com/think/2010/06/t-shirts-admirations/img_5048/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3462" title="IMG_5048" src="http://outoftheblog.com/think/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/IMG_5048.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="333" /></a></p>
<p>Rewind to three weeks back and <a href="http://outoftheblog.com/think/2010/05/london-where-hipsters-roam/" target="_blank">we find ourselves in London</a>. As promised I still needed to share some more stuff with you all and what follows is a great T-shirt project!</p>
<p>Walking through East End, on our way to Old Street, we happened to cross <a href="http://weadmire.net/" target="_blank">WeAdmire</a>. A store like no other as what you discover there is no high street <em>American Apparel or Urban Outfitters mainstream junk</em> but real authentic t-shirts. I was even told that they have <em>over 1,500 designs in their collection</em>. What makes it even better is de shop owner Theo, who welcomes everyone to have a look around and gives you the inside story on <em>WeAdmire</em> first-hand. About time we let him tell us his story.</p>
<p><a href="http://weadmire.net/" target="_blank"><strong>How did it all get started</strong></a>?</p>
<p><em>The motivation for the company sprang from the dire shortage of t shirts that express anything positive about the wearers of said shirts.  I recently had a conversation with someone about Abercrombie and Fitch.  They had praised A&amp;F as an example of a good brand.  My question to them: what did wearing an A&amp;F shirt say about the person wearing it?  Their reply wasn&#8217;t coherent.  For me A&amp;F is just the extreme end of t shirts as nonsense which happened to lead to my question in the conversation I was having.  More generally the lack of shirts I wanted to buy was brought home to me by my purchase of a t shirt in Camden Market some years ago. The design was a simple hand painted detail from the Bayeux Tapestry. It was the first time I had seen a shirt that looked good and had some resonance with me. The fact such a &#8220;“get out of my way, that shirt has my name on it&#8221;” urge did not repeat for 20 years or so was the source of my motivation to start WeAdmire. Shirts that deliver real self expression are too few and far between.</em></p>
<p><em>We sold the first shirt via our website late December 08. It was slow going in the beginning, I think we might have sold our second shirt to the buyer of the first in January 09. From there things picked up. Nearly everyone who has bought a shirt has come back for more. Several of our customers have told us our shirts have changed their love lives. And many have told us our shirts are the only items they have bought for their nearest and dearest.</em></p>
<p><strong>How does the creation of such shirts start</strong></p>
<p><em>The brief to designers invites them to put the subject ahead of the aesthetic. This is because in a circumstance of informed and authentic admiration the aesthetic will tend to look after itself. In this regard the brief to designers is well expressed by the quote on our Goethe shirt: &#8220;“What is uttered from the heart alone will win the hearts of others to your own.&#8221;” Among other things this makes the point authenticity is interesting, almost irrespective of topic.</em></p>
<p><em>Because we produce our shirts on demand we can manage a huge range of subjects. Considerations of what might sell do not have to form the primary design filter. Just as well because picking winners has a well established history of failure.   Quality and authenticity however are always interesting.  A good example of this is <a href="http://weadmire.net/tshirt/leica/" target="_blank">our Leica FIII by Yukio Miyamoto</a>.  The Leica FIII is presently our best seller. But if someone suggested an image like this applied to a t shirt might be a best seller I doubt you would believe it until you saw and handled the shirt.  Print on demand allows us to always take the chance.</em></p>
<p><em>I think its for that reason (amongst others) that designers enjoy working for us. By definition designers are interested in self expression. Providing expression is a mutually satisfying thing for both expressor and expressed. T shirts have loads to say and many ways of saying it.</em></p>
<p><strong>Can you tell us a bit more about the printing process? I see its not the usual way.</strong><em><br />
</em></p>
<p><em>We print at resolutions of 300 to 800 dpi. The process uses gas dispersion inks. They dye the fabric, they do not sit on the surface of the garment. They are colourfast and because they dye the fabric they will not crack, or otherwise deteriorate to any significant extent. The process does not alter the performance of the fabric and does not affect the feel of the garment. Because of this and because we print digitally we can print to scale. Broadly the area of the design is a consistent proportion of the area of the shirts.</em></p>
<p><strong>Final question, what are your favourite pieces?</strong></p>
<p><em>My favourite t shirt admiration stories include <a href="http://weadmire.net/tshirt/hedy-lamarr-patent" target="_blank">that of Hedy Lamarr</a>. Not so much a case as they don&#8217;t make them like this anymore as the simple fact that such people come round with a frequency like that of Shakespeare, Muhammad Ali etc, one every few hundred years&#8230;</em></p>
<p><strong>Thanks for all the info.</strong></p>
<p>Needless to say we ended up walking out with a fresh shirt <img src='http://outoftheblog.com/think/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  I got myself the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Shankly" target="_blank">Bill Shankly</a> one which states &#8220;<em>Some people think football is matter of life and death, I assure youit&#8217;s much more important than that</em>&#8221;</p>

<p>The shop is open in Great Eastern Street and worth a visit if you like to sport a unique shirt. Otherwise <a href="http://weadmire.net/" target="_blank">pay their online shop</a> a quick visit. I know I would. <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Out-of-the-Blog/96558346178?ref=ts" target="_blank">Out</a>.</p>

<p><a href="http://www.dayonepublications.com/Bicycle_Portraits/Index.html" target="_blank">The Bicycle Portraits project</a> <em>was initiated by Stan Engelbrecht (Cape Town, South Africa) and Nic Grobler (Johannesburg, South Africa) early in 2010. Whenever they can, together or separately, they’re on the lookout for fellow commuters, and people who use bicycles as part of their everyday work, to meet and photograph. They’re finding out who rides bicycles, why they ride bicycles and why they love their bicycles</em>.</p>
<p>This project really sparked my attention and with the World Cup going down in South Africa I though it was a nice feature on the country that is not football centered <img src='http://outoftheblog.com/think/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  You can <a href="http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/bicycleportraits/bicycle-portraits-everyday-south-africans-and-thei" target="_blank">find all the extended info over here</a> on the what, how and what not.</p>

<p>When we visited London we dropped by the <a href="http://www.lazyoaf.co.uk" target="_blank">Lazy Oaf</a> store near Carnaby Street. Was not really planned, but bumped into the store while strollig the streets and had previously read about their gear. Now coincidence has it that I <a href="http://www.weheart.co.uk/2010/05/25/lazy-oaf-ss10-look-book/" target="_blank">just bumped into their latest lookbook</a> also.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3400/4640210154_ff727ae31d.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="333" /></p>
<p style="text-align: right;"><strong>&#8220;Who is Lazy Oaf and  what are they About?&#8221;</strong></p>
<p><em>Lazy Oaf is famous for it&#8217;s bright pop graphic T-shirts, reversible sweats and accessories collections. The company is driven by illustration, graphics, drawing, and fuelled by tea, hamburgers and Brian Blessed&#8217;s knarley foot. The Oaf&#8217;s have often contributed to print projects, exhibitions and events. </em></p>
<p>The East London based label started the production of hand screen printed tee&#8217;s back in 2001 and right now they are available in over 150 stores worldwide and they even opened a lazy oaf store in Soho where you can find all of the collections and further Oaf oddities.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.lazyoaf.co.uk/lookbook.php" target="_blank">Have a quick look at their lookbook</a> and you will quickly discover what its all about.</p>
<p>For the BE cats, <em>Kakkoiiiro</em> (108 RUE AFRICAINE, BRUSSELS) stocks their gear it seems. For the anyone who finds themselves in LDN, drop by the Lazy Oaf Shop which is located at 19 Fouberts Place near Carbaby street. <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Out-of-the-Blog/96558346178?ref=ts">Out</a>.</p>

<pre style="text-align: center;">Landing platform on top of the Thames</pre>
<p>Strangest things tend to happen to me lately and last Friday <a href="http://imkedielen.wordpress.com/2010/05/28/krijg-je/" target="_blank">an offer was made which I could not refuse</a>. An offer which saw me return back to London way sooner than expected for a weekend. An offer to experience something once in my lifetime. An offer like no other <img src='http://outoftheblog.com/think/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><strong>Friday morning 10 am</strong></p>
<p>The story starts on my way to the office. I get a call from <a href="http://www.twitter.be/imkedielen" target="_blank" class="broken_link">Imke Dielen</a>, asking if &#8220;<em>I would be interested to travel to London for the weekend by helicopter</em>&#8220;. Seems there was a flight planned the next day which would be flying empty to London (and back on Sunday) to pick up a regular customer.</p>
<p>Now Imke thought I might be interested as I had stated the week before (upon return from our #youngscum trip) that <em>I&#8217;d like to go back as soon as possible</em>. I fell in love with the city, that to say the least. At first I thought she was pulling a good joke on me though, but after having heard the entire story I realised it was true and I had to grab the opportunity. (To be honest it took me an hour before I convinced myself I should drop everything and just go <img src='http://outoftheblog.com/think/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> )</p>
<p>As there would be space for 6, a search started and after a couple of tweets, telephone calls, mails and disappointments (as <a href="http://imkedielen.wordpress.com/2010/05/31/als-je-iets-doet/" target="_blank">Niel</a> realised he lost his ID card and would not be able to leave the country) our travel party of 6 was formed.</p>
<p>Later that day I got briefed on what was about to happen and was told to  &#8220;<em>Forget everything you know about aviation, this is how rich people travel</em>&#8220;. No annoying pasport controls, no delays (although we did have like a 15 minute wait upon return proving private airtravel ain&#8217;t what it used to be <img src='http://outoftheblog.com/think/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  #butdontcryforus), &#8230;</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1290/4660668693_c46c2fcabb.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="333" /></p>
<pre style="text-align: center;">Literally flew by the London Eye &amp; Big Ben</pre>
<p><strong>Saturday, 10.45 am<br />
</strong></p>
<p>Boarding time. First time in a helicoptah and excited as a Catholic priest on Sunday morning we headed out to the heliport of Oostende. There our chariot awaited, a eurocopter AS365. Quick coffee and of we were to cross the channel. Amazing view needless to say (although I got stuck in the middle seat <img src='http://outoftheblog.com/think/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> ).</p>
<p>As soon as we touched Britisch soil (or even better asphalt) in Battersea (near the Thames) we got welcomed by to customs officers. &#8220;Business or pleasure Sir?&#8221; &#8220;Pleasure! Felt like having Burger Kind I responded in a sec&#8221;. What followed was a hard laugh, yet I still think they believe I meant it <img src='http://outoftheblog.com/think/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Anyhow, no taxi service or Benson waiting for us. A walk to the nearest overground station is what awaited. Check-in at the Royale Grand Hote, which sounds fancy but nothing more, awaited.</p>
<p><strong>The week-end</strong></p>
<p>What followed was a relaxed 24hour-something visit through London, doing touristy things. Visited the British Museum, Victoria &amp; Albert Museum, Notting Hill, Picadilly Circus &amp; other well-know spots. All the stuff I had previously ot been able to do really.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1295/4660941231_a1005bd8b4.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="333" /></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4044/4661213128_f1d0d1e45b.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="333" /></p>
<pre style="text-align: center;">The Mayor of Battersea Heliport checking in</pre>
<p><strong>Upon return</strong></p>
<p>After our return I was informed that the guys who made this possible are launching <a href="http://jethopper.net/" target="_blank">http://jethopper.net/</a>. Have a look as they also want to give other people the experience, but that of flying by private jet at an affordable price.</p>
<p>As every day hundreds of private jets move around Europe with no passengers to pick up their owners or to return to their home bases they want to try and give these seats passengers so they at least become a little bit more “green” as the are scheduled anyway.</p>
<p>On their site they offer an interactive map. Once they know you’re interested in certain flights they&#8217;ll contact the private jet company and come back to you with the possibilities &amp; details. Who knows, you might find yourself enjoying a millionaire’s private jet on its way to the end of the world, having a unique experience and this for just a fraction of the real cost.</p>
<p>So, this was our story straight out of the sky. If you ever get the chance to do something as insane as this, grab it with your two hands and run with it. Defre did and now <a href="http://foursquare.com/venue/3231740" target="_blank">he&#8217;s the mayor of Battersea Heliport</a> and officially <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AXehSng0NV4" target="_blank">changed his ringtone to the airwolf theme song</a> <img src='http://outoftheblog.com/think/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' />  <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Out-of-the-Blog/96558346178?ref=ts" target="_blank">Out</a>.</p>

<p>Couple of months back I was <a href="http://outoftheblog.com/think/2010/02/one-step-forward-for-mankind/" target="_blank">pleased to annonce the birth of Apollo</a>. Now the moment arrived that many were afraid for: <a href="http://www.apollo.be" target="_blank">Apollo</a> is no more it seems.</p>
<p>Shit hit the fan as the news spread about financial troubles and we only can hope they find a new partner for a re-launch soon!</p>
<p>For the time being their final issue is lying there at the local newsagent. Drop by and pick up a copy. I am sure you will enjoy reading it.</p>
<p>At the same time you can also support the people behind the mag and <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/WIJ-WILLEN-APOLLO-TERUG/126120427403846?ref=ts" target="_blank">join a symbolic effort to try and save their dream</a>. <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Out-of-the-Blog/96558346178?ref=ts" target="_blank">Out</a>.</p>
