This is one for the guys. One of our favourite men’s streetwear labels, Zanerobe, has just released its Fantasy League collection which is inspired by Australia’s fanatacism with sport. Well, it’s true! Designer Jonathan Yeo describes the range as ‘fun and funky’, and he’s on the ball when he say that. On the ball! Gettit. Shucks. We’ve got a little collection of eight Zanerobe goodies to give away to random Lost At E Minor subscribers who send any post on the Lost At E Minor site to one of their friends before August 25 2006 (Read more details and see the giveaway gear here). They include the Search & Rescue navy tee, the Track & Field blue hoodie and the Midtown v-neck white tee. Very cool indeed. [more about Zanerobe]

Star Wars Uncut: a fully crowdsourced version of Episode IV
The project of creative technologist, Casey Pugh, this full length version of the George Lucas masterpiece was created from multiple 15 second segments recreated from the original movie and submitted by thousands of Star Wars fans, which were then spliced together by editor Aaron Valdez to form the final product. Genius, as both a commentary on contemporary pop culture trends (there are references to LEGO, stop motion, memes and the like) and on the power of tapping your audience for quality material.
Filmmaker creates LEGO stop motion to propose to girlfriend
Now, this is one for the ages: back in 2010, Atlanta film-maker Walter Thompson created a jaw-dropping LEGO stop motion to propose to Nealey Dozier, his girlfriend of four years. The video took 22 hours of shooting and some 2,600 pictures to splice together, a small sacrifice to pay for years of happiness together. Right? Right! Oh, and she said yes. Bonus.

Sweet giveaway Zolton! I like how Zanerobe has continued this theme from one collection to the next… for instance the ‘Search and Rescue’ tee is in the same vein as the ‘Search and Rescue’ hoody from the winter collection.

can you hear that thundering in the background…getting closer and closer ? that is the sound of the hoardes of new eMinor minions jumping onboard the Z train to enlightenment and well – a better dress sense.
may the zanerobe campaign be the Bird Flu of viral marketing.

The ‘bird flu of viral marketing’…that’s an interesting metaphor there Andy. I like it!

HAVE YOUR SAY
Whoever said ‘good things come in small packages’ was probably right in many respects. But when comparing the satisfaction of a single Gummi Bear, compared to treating yourself to an Astro from Vat19; the only decision you need to make is how you’re going to eat it. Knife and fork, anyone?
I read Bill Bryson’s A Short History of Nearly Everything and emerged out the other end even more confused about what really happened than before. So thank you College Humor and Mark Zuckerberg for simplifying what was evidently a most complex period of time. Read more
There was a time, many moons ago, when I would only listen to bands off New Zealand’s Flying Nun label. Yup, I would strap myself into a comfy chair, put my headphones on and, armed with a chunk of chocolate coated Peanut Slab and a can of L&P, soak up album after album of wonderfully self-indulgent low-fi melancholy.

For a lark, I spent last night cruising Worth Street in West Palm Springs, Florida, the longest, cleanest, most deserted street I’ve ever seen, which is jammed with a string of high-class stores, flogging everything from travel jewellery (for the terrified billionaire), to sweaters and blazers in every colour imaginable. That’s right, who said The Rich had poor taste?
Yes, we’d like to believe we’re all adults, but sometimes, after a few beers, it’s fun to play a game of Who’d You Rather? Read more
The coolest band in Indonesia? I think so. White Shoes & The Couples Company describe themselves as a small band that is ‘influenced by Indonesian movie soundtracks from the 70s and inspired by the acoustic spirit of 1930′s classic jazz musicians’. But I like to think of them as carrying the torch for artists like Benny Goodman, Tahiti 80, and The Cardigans, all at the same time.
Listen to their track, Super Reuni.
