Instant trooper alert: a polaroid story, the expo

Instant trooper alert!!!

Some years ago I met Elisabeth at a concert of Mulatu Astate.  Miss Ouni and her polaroid camera were standing in the front row.  From then on, almost every soulful concert or hiphop gig I went to.. I saw Elisabeth and her polaroid camera trying to find a way to make a snap shot of Qtip, Raphael Saadiq, Erykah Badu, The Roots, Sa Ra, Method man, and so on and so on. … and ... she has some amazing shots!!

You can find them on her website, but even better: you can find them on her very own expo!!!

A Polaroid Story: from October 11th until October 27th @ A&Gallery.
Are you attending?

Besides being a trooper with that polaroid camera, we must say.. this girl has taste in music!!   Check out 22tracks.com the Ouni takeover!

* Clouds in my coffee:

In the Dampoort area, between all the pita places you can find a new breakfast- lunch - coffee bar.  The owners are the same owners of I/OBJECT, an online concept store offering nice design and interior objects.   The interior of clouds in my coffee is obviously stunning.

Wastelands Festival

Some hip wasteland venue, a blazing sun and an exclusive weird line-up.. sounds like a festival!  Street Gnar, Maria Minerva, Nick Nicely, Pictureplane and John Maus.  I wasn't very familiar with the music, but had a quite nice afternoon.

Picture your painting: sneak peek

Today I had a photo shoot in the Museum of Modern Art.  Never had a shoot like this before, but I loved it!  People could dress up in costumes from the 19th century and imitate a painting.

Lots of pictures to edit, but here's a quick glimpse.
