Tom Tykwer "3"


Another film I'm eagerly waiting for its release in Japan.





Anders Thomas Jensen


I've been a big fan of this Danish director.
Maybe one of only a few here in Japan.
 I've seen just 2 of 3 films he directed so far though...

Twisted plot, full of striking characters,
Very dark sense of humour.
Quite harsh but warm, caricatured but real.

Check these two movies if you have a chance.

Adam's Apple (Adams æbler)
I saw this film at Sydney Film Festival.


The Green Butchers (De grønne slagtere)


He is also a great writer.
He wrote many scripts for Dogma films.
Mostly famous for the collaboration with Suzanne Bier. 
(After Wedding, In A Better World, Open Hearts etc.)


Tides and Reflections






Sunset Beach, Bali

Lars Von Trier "Melancholia"


It looks very promising... 
But it's Lars Von Trier, not sure if it really is.
And when can I see it...?

Save Khaki


Another clothing store I have to visit next time I'm in NYC.
I love Save Khaki shorts and got 4-5 pairs already. 
Authentic workwear detail, but with sophistication.



Swedish/Male/Electro/Pop/Duo



Technicolor, quite "Never Ending Story".





Black & White, catwalk friendly



Both very promising, great remixers and gaylicious.

Lava flow, Big Island, Hawaii


Lava flowing into the ocean.




Gregory Crewdson


Another my favourite, Gregory Drewdson.
His works are very cinematographic.
Edward Hopper meets David Lynch?
Soap opera turned out to be Twilight Zone?
Somehow mystical, lunatic, absurd, and funny.









It's a bit like you are watching a movie which you are not quite clear what genre to be categorized and don't remember the plot when you finished watching.

What do you think?

Kashmir "Rocket Brothers"




A great song and video from my all time favourite band, Kashmir.
Denmark rules.


Saturdays Surf NYC

I've never surfed. 
I worked with Kelly Slater and Rob Machado once and also lived in Sydney.
But yes, never surfed. 

Saturdays Surf makes me feel like to surf one day. 
Probably, one day.



This button down shirts is just right. 
Summer is here.

I bought several T-shirts already and love them all.

Looking forward to visiting their shop in NYC.
Probably, one day.



Andy Gilmore


One of my favourite artists. 
Amazing geometric graphic art.




Washed Out "Within and Without"

Great summer album.





Sean Young in "Blade Runner"




She was classy and beautiful, a perfect replicant
... in the film.
