    Takeshi Suga 1

    Takeshi Suga recently returned to Japan having spent a few years working for the NME, taking lo-fi backstage shots of bands like Two Door Cinema Club, Tribes and First Aid Kit. He’s coming back to Europe to open an exhibition of both his NME work and his dreamlike nostalgic shots of endless summers, at the Lomography Berlin gallery store. Suga’s also kind enough to be leading a Diana Mini workshop, during which he’ll explain how he gets “dreamy double exposures” with his cheap analogue camera.

    Analogue cameras look and sound better than digital ones, don’t they? I also believe that the magic will be lost if I know I can shoot as many frames as I like

    Berlin, you temptress you. Here I was, counting my pennies like a good girl, and you’ve only gone and opened up a concept store that makes me want to sell everything I own and clean them out Victoria Beckham stylee. Andreas Murkudis sits in the former Tagesspiegel building in northern Schöneberg and this light, airy space is more reminiscent of an art gallery than your average designer store.

    With collections, all handpicked by Murkudis himself, from the likes of Céline, Dries van Noten and Maison Martin Margiela – and some right bobby dazzler (Geordie for beautiful) homewares – I ooh-ed and ahh-ed my way around the store. I became mesmerized by one of the Bi-Cabas Céline totes (pictured below) that has been on my “if I ever win the lottery” list… very, VERY tempting. One more visit to this she-devil of a store and I might just be swayed!

    We’ve uncovered never-before-seen footage of a time-travelling Techno Viking tearing Weimar Berlin a new rave-hole:

    OK, so we actually made this ourselves – but that doesn’t make it any less awesome. Many thanks to The Artistifier app (“Make any YouTube video award winning”), Zoë, who filmed the video on her iPhone when said app wouldn’t export it, and of course Techno Viking – seen here in all his full colour glory.

      […] and recently Zoë and I taken to blending Berlin content. We started by turning Fuckparade icon Techno Viking into a 1920s silent movie, and now I’ve mashed together two famous visions of Berlin past and […]
