Because I still love having them in my own hands instead of looking
at a low resolution duplicate on the cumputerscreen.

Kino
Pilot issue
2007

I've been wanting to make a fanzine for a few years now.
The growing amount of webzines.
And the lack of both personal and ethical zines
only made my motivation higher.
So when my friend kenneth wanted to do the same thing.
I couldn't wait to get started.
It has interviews with Suis La Lune, Tang and The black heart rebellion.
+ some texts about veganism, candymals and tapes.

Matthew Barney
The cremaster cycle(I-V)
1994-2002

On Sunday, I went to see the cremaster cycle of Matthew Barney.
This is really an amazing work of art.
5 movies, each 2/3 hours.
It's somewhere between Lynch, Cronenberg and lords of the rings.
If you ever get the chance (because they don't show this often),
you should definitely see this piece of art.
