A Sparkling Protest
A limited edition Fur Free scarf by Pinar&Viola for Bont voor Dieren and Fur Free.
The scarf wants to expose the benefits of the alternatives for real fur in fashion by showing the beauty of the unnatural and the artifice. In order to symbolize the endless possibilities of artificial fur, we made the entire panthera family parade on a fashionable scarf. Blood drips of the anti fur campaigns are replaced by stains of rainbow colors ornamenting the panthers’ fur. The print displays an optical illusion of rounds that mimic a cut on the surface of the scarf. Utterly fake fur strains are peaking out of these graphical rounds; proud to be fake.
Bont voor Dieren (Fur for Animals) is a Dutch animal protection organization dedicated to the rights and protection of all fur-bearing animals. They campaign against the production and use of fur by raising public awareness on issues such as animal cruelty and welfare. Bont door Dieren supports Fur Free, an initiative by Jojanneke van der Veer and Femke Dekker. Fur Free organizes Fur Free shows, Fur Free exhibitions, publish Fur Free magazines and write Fur Free manifesto’s.
The Fur Free Scarf is part of the exhibition PROTEST!. Fur Free invited print- and graphic designers to come up with their very own iconic Fur Free protest poster. Participating designers are: Alex Kaséta, And Beyond, Antoine Peters, Bas Kosters, Bart de Baets, Experimental Jetset, Glamcult Studio, Hansje van Halem, Karen van de Kraats, Nicole Martens, Nieuw Jurk and Our Polite Society. The exhibition is on from January 21st till January 26th, all designs will be on view at De Slang, one of Amsterdam’s oldest squats on Spuistraat 199.

#CuttingForBieber
The Bieber smoking weed pictures caused a bloody online Twitter hoax. A group of pranksters, most probably from 4chan, posing as Belieber fans started #CuttingForBieber. It’s an attempt to stimulate Beliebers to cut themselves in order to make Bieber stop smoking weed.

Bōsōzoku
Bōsōzoku (暴走族?, literally “violent running tribe”) is a Japanese youth subculture associated with customized cars, motorcycles or trucks. Bōsōzoku is popular since the 1990s.
Bōsōzoku are known to modify their car, motorcycles or truck in peculiar and often showy ways.
These cars are often modified with large exhaust pipes, bright paint, and large aero kits, he latter modelled on Group 5 “Special Production Cars” of the 1970s. Also popular are oil coolers or less commonly large turbo or supercharger intercoolers with highly polished tubing, usually mounted in a prominent position in the front bumper.

Aureola from Champagne Valentine on Vimeo.
Chamagne Valentine is an interactive creative director duo that we consider one step beyond. They makes us face that the era of the paper print is already passé and we find comfort in it’s denial. In exception of rose-in-the-deep-holes-of-slums of Rio or part-time pizza delivery/part-time-gangsters/but still a designer, it’s very unlikely that we post a creative agency’s work in the blog. However, we find similarities in the way they and us operate. Innovation&fun with a constant flow… and people sometimes pay for it.
“Champagne Valentine. Interactive, creative, cross-platform brand bubblebath. We creatively direct brands into romantic digital spaces. Not always safe, but always warm. Apps, websites, installations, films, lazer beams. The stuff nobody saw coming. Technology can stir emotions. Feel ones and zeros.” (Taken from Champagne Valentine Website)

Cyriak’s surreal brain-spillages
“Hello, I am Cyriak from 100 years into the future, where I have been exhumed and sent backwards in time via cyberspace in order to welcome you to the unabridged contents of my brain-damaged imagination”.
Cyriak Harris makes remarkable animations, videos and comics. They’re all super surreal and eclectic brain-spillages often baring a distinct British theme. Many of his animations are based on Z-List celebrities, television shows and his hometown of Brighton. His pieces feature cats, cows, and robots, among other themes. Some of his work is set to his own electronic music compositions.
Here you can find Cyriak’s You Tube Channel.
This blog post is made possible thanks to our beloved neighbor Bart.
