Fuerzabruta
Buenos Aires, Lisbon, London and now Bogota have been shaken, beaten and enlightened by a group of wild, sensual, acrobatic Argentineans called Fuerzabruta, a project between two former De La Guarda theatre company members. The show takes place amongst and above the audience. There are no seats. Sprinkling water, fake blood, paper, and cardboard boxes may hit you. Everything is unexpected. You may even receive passionate kisses from the crazy performers who dance around you with the rhythm of a live DJ. The energy and sensations you feel are remarkable, as a pool hanging from the roof descends over you, and four dancers smash their almost naked bodies against the transparent bottom. There is no concept, just reality.

The Take It Easy experience in Barcelona
Two months ago, a very special and unique place opened in Barcelona: TAKE IT EASY, an anti-stress space. Inspired by The Eagles song, Ramón Regada created a comfortable area in the district of L’Eixample in which people can unplug and take a short nap in hi-tech massage chairs. It is aimed at workers with only short time after lunch to take the famous siesta. And all for just five Euros. Regada asks each customer to write down a phrase or word after taking the nap and each week he selects one as a banner in the front window of the space. Read more
El Cosmonauta: the first participatory film in Spain
Cosmonaut is a feature film project by Riot Cinema Collective and the first participatory film in Spanish cinema to date. The project uses the Internet collaboratively under free Creative Commons licences and, with the help of viewers, aims to create alternative finance, creation and distribution platforms for independent films. By inviting viewers to be a part of the production process of the film and give them access to all content created, Cosmonaut intends to engage the audience and jointly develop a closer and more transparent relationship.

Aussie wunderkid photographer, Nirrimi, is now represented by Look Management and is well on the way to becoming a true superstar in the field. I particularly love the muted colours in her work and the subtle sense of repressed energy which permeates her portrait photography. Read more
I awoke the other morning from the sleep of the damned, a fitful spell of tossing and turning courtesy of a mild dose of the flu and the constant rattle of the JMZ trains as they hurtle across the tracks outside my window. Read more
George Lois is the god of good ideas, or at least one of them. When I am stuck on ideas, I pray to George the God, or look through his works in hope of doing something one hundredth as good as his work. Read more

When I first moved to London and didn’t know a soul, I joined up with the British Film Institute [BFI] and started going to the talks they put on. When I went to see Gene Wilder speak, all the know-alls in the audience kept asking questions, not to find out anything, but just to show off to the room how much they knew about film making. He got annoyed. Genius boy genius.
God save the Queen. Oh, and Johnny Rotten, Sid Vicious, Steve Jones and Paul Cook too. Read more
is it TooLate? Is it? Never! This Italian-made watch has a beautiful minimal design, comes in lots of colors, is water proof and goes for less than $30. Hot damn! 10,000 of them were sold in the first ten days after their release and half a million in it’s first year of distribution. Apparently the Italians are wearing two or three of them together as part of some bizarre fashion clique. Wonder if the rest of the world will catch on?
