Just like 'the rest of us', I do not like it when there are no updates on my Notebook. Same goes to I Got Shot. But you have to understand that other than lab coats, no one dresses up to the hospitals... Right. I'll think of something.
Are you like me? Fascinated with all things print, colourful, cutting-edge, foreign and expensive? I've got some suggestions. Three, to be exact.
Kasino comes from Finland [when was the last time you touched something Finnish?] and now available at Borders, The Curve [shrink-wrapped, at that]. The cover is in human skin, with pores and fur and all. I remember feeling a lot of newsprint pages while skimming through the magazine. I don't remember what it talked about, though.
Anorak is a magazine for kiddies made in the UK. Not afraid of colour, collages, nutty rhymes and all are compiled into an old-school layout that makes you want to have kids just to gift them this magazine.
PIN-UP is not European but from New York City. It has a comfortable resemblance with Fantastic Man magazine, from the paper quality they use [newsprint forever!], text overlapping images done in the most controllable carefree way. Very suiting for those in search of 'architectural entertainment'.
All three magazines love Helvetica forever and comes in a single copy. Good luck in finding them, considering that the picture was taken two weeks ago.
Now, something else that is foreign and expensive. This time it's edible! And it comes from San Francisco! What is it?
I don't know how it ended up at Cold Storage The Gardens, but it was placed nearby the RM 30 Klondike bars. I am so going to get this and keep the box. It looks like it just came from M Sasek's book I bought not too long ago.
Lastly, typographic shot of the moment-
A star badge for those who already know what a fri-jado is.
