Pirate Black Noise

Once upon a time, in a life lived a long time ago, I dated a musician who was the most beautiful, divine soul that exists on the planet. We lived a passionate romance that ended up both our doing and our undoing, but that included amazing moments when we would be hugged by incredible force caused by music and sound that said more to each of us and to both of us, and more than we were able too say to each other. And we lived a million beautiful, never can be repeated instances - that felt like a dream. Like the time that we danced through hundreds of helium balloons in our lounge room, fuelled on by vodka from a vase, low lights, late nights and new love.

I'm not sure why Natalia Brilli's black gear makes me think of him. Maybe its the funeral black sadness of love lost? Maybe its the juxtaposition of simple form vs the rainbow of sound that we lived together? Maybe its that Summer has gone and Autumn is here, much like when you know that it's done? Whichever, or whatever, this gear by the Belgium born / Parisian based accessories designer is massively intense.

we are righteous.

Did you back a Melb Cup winner? I did in Komono. While rebelling the stifling confines of the straight line and the colourless (eg 9-5 work ...) the loose sleeve amazing that my beautiful friend from Belgium, Raf Maes, sent me in Komono, sucked me whole of incredible sentiment and desire.

Combining a love for the colourful and the design/designed, these amazing pieces include an aspect of planning as a response to the anticipated problem of needing. Additionally, they result in a piece that can be left behind as a exploration of a solution that is critical for an everyday necessity of being. Consider YOUR living space without under pants, or sunglasses to block out the crowds and the night just passed (Christian - imagine if you didn't have those Wayfarers...).

Don't push a square peg into a round hole. PUSH a piece of something that defines YOU into your being, and revolve around the less than over designed, and the very possibility that everyone can participate in a shape of the world that they choose.

My choices? The Bond (in black gun metal) the Einstein (in yellow) Tyson (in grey). BANG.IT.
Raf Maes'theMasses + Mo + Natalie the wonder

the Bond (in black gun metal)
the Einstein (in yellow)
Tyson (in grey)

Sums it up really, yeah?
