popfest 2010 Event-Panorama

zed melody — Mon, 10 May 2010 22:29:09 +0000

Hello guys,

last weekend we enjoyed some public music at our neighbourhood and we especially looked forward to one of the bands on the last day called > “Garish”. While they played their melodios music with a teaspoon of melancholy, I took my cam to take a fast panorama shot of this public scenery and despite of the bad 8pm lightning I think it shows the mood of all the different assembled people

Impressions: Modepalast 2010

zed melody — Tue, 04 May 2010 10:00:18 +0000

I know it’s late, but finally here are some impressions of a small choosen group of fashion designers which are an inspiration for us.

First of all we have to say a big wow to the organizers and hosts of the event.
For the eighth time Cloed Priscilla Baumgartner and Jasmin Ladenhaufen put a lot of sweat and time into the show.

Here you can see exhibition architecture, a two-floor walk-in show palace with stages.
It has been conceived by Andi Lackner and the crew of perfect props and is simply amazing.

We thought the km/a collection was very extraordinary, but still wearable.
It is a nice mixture of punk and sailor and surely a lot of work.

Birgit Rampula from Amateur La Boutique joined the Modepalast for the third time
and said that it was simply great to be there.
You will be able to read a bit more about her soon.

We especially liked the idea of Junikind´s multi-purposed clothes.
As you can see there are several ways to wear this dress/skirt/top.
The fabrics are awesome, using restrained and pretty floral patterns.

And oh yeah, a Yellow Submarine skirt. The perfect wedding dress, I guess
Many more of these crazy clothes can be found at Piratin.

All in all one can see that there is a lot of organisation and work at the Modepalast.

Even though it was said that people should not recognize the difference between green and normal labels, we would have liked to see some kind of mark.
Thinking green is a better way for the future and it should be visible.
The thought of “green is different in a weird way” will not vanish through hiding it.
Still one has to say that focusing on green labels inside of the fashion territory is not a common thing and therefor good to do.

tweemee business cards

zed melody — Sun, 02 May 2010 22:27:09 +0000

Because I like this business-card photos on ffffound, behance etc here we are: photos taken on silver-reflecting paper with a little photoshop post processing.

tweemee’s sales booth & label development

zed melody — Fri, 30 Apr 2010 22:30:36 +0000

Hello

Finally we’d get some time to create (temporary) business cards for our first sales booth today. you could find us here:
arche-noah.at
Obere Straße 40, 3553 Schiltern, Austria (details)

The assortment for this occassion will be rather small but still nice.
We will be selling small strawberries that smell like roses and vanilla, big strawberry-pillows, handcuffs (no, not like THAT ones!!!), handbags, jewlery and other home accessoires.
Hopefully we get to make some representive photos, for there are always zillions of people.

Wish us luck!
The pictures of our business cards will be online as soon as we will return + pictures from the sales event.

happy about: new shoes.

zed melody — Wed, 21 Apr 2010 23:05:17 +0000

Last year I got 2 pairs of great & cheap skater-shoes (I just love the shoe-designs) from Barcelona’s store “Pull and Bear”.
It’s a fairly unknown fashion sub-store-line from the italian concern “Zara” but with much cheaper prices and more colorful yearly-collections. And today it was the right time to get new ones – this time from our local converse&skate store in Vienna’s 7 district named “art & style”.

The fact that I last skateboarded in 2000 doesnt hold me back to still wear skatershoes. I think there isn´t such a big quality difference between the labels Emerica, Osiris and DC.

here some pics and details

The designers of OSIRIS did a great job with this TROMA II ( > google it to see the design-variety). In my opinion they produce very smart, elegant and fitting shoes and I will count myself lucky if I will ever get the chance to do a graphical print-on design for them.

we love: Audiotool

zed melody — Tue, 30 Mar 2010 13:41:13 +0000

Since yesterday I returned to my passion of producing electronic music – and with my previous knowledge of Propellerhead´s Reason – Audiotool is really an easy way to create music wherever I am – and all this for free.

The titel on their website “Start making music today — right in your browser. We provide all the tools to get you started!” isn’t just a joke. You get tools from synthesizer to effect units and a really professional sequencer (like Reason’s sequencer). Also the idea of placing your sound-units around the map is a great way to get a good overview on how your music will sound. Loopmasters provide some of their best samples in Audiotool for free – just create a Sample-Player unit and drop&drop a sample from their library in your sequencer to use them. Even if you change the master-tempo, the sample will stay in groove (but pitched).

+ You can save your project (as long as you have a free account)
+ export for your profile
+ set your song / composition as public, private and choose your licence (creative commons, copyright, etc)

Lovely equipment for mid-weight dSLR cameras

zed melody — Mon, 08 Mar 2010 23:36:51 +0000

Spring is coming and it’s time for a new year full of fresh photography. To take our enjoyment to the next level we will also get some fresh gear for our cameras. For steady shots a light-weight tripod, for smooth time-lapse captures a digital-timer cable trigger and last but not least the ultimate portable camera-dolly.

1) light-weight tripod: Manfrotto MA 055XPROB Pro

light-weight 2,4kg (5,2 pounds) with all features like a professional tripod + the ability to get 10cm (0,3 feet) above the ground. Great for macro shots! We will love it.

manufacturers website: www.manfrotto.com

(the tripod in this video is the smaller brother of the 055XPROB, but nearly the same)

2) light-weight fluid video head: Manfrotto 701HDV Pro Fluid Video mini head

A tripod without a (good) head won’t do its job. I think there’s no need for explanation about this

manufacturers website: www.manfrotto.com

3) digital-timer cable trigger: Phottix Tr-90

We already own this little digital helper and I have to say: although it’s a no-name product, it does its job very well. You just have to set the duration between the releases and the shooting-quantity to get some really good time-lapse captures

manufacturers website: www.phottix.com

4) portable camera-dolly: Glidetrack Shooter

“The Glidetrack Shooter is the world’s first camera slider, that doubles up as a shoulder support. Glidetrack Shooter is perfect for the new breed of DSLR’s that can shoot video i.e. Canon 5d, 7d, Nikon D90, D3s etc.”

manufacturers website: www.glidetrack.com

Taschen. Not Bags – Books :)

zed melody — Mon, 08 Mar 2010 22:29:14 +0000

We are in love with the publisher Taschen. Since we own more and more books from them (Decorative Art 60s, Japanese Art Now!, and so on..) we regulary look on their site for new money-sucking offers we can’t deny.

Our next investiment definitely will be this two books:

1) Guidelines for Online Success

> more infos on here.
> amazon for dollars: here.

2) The Internet Case Study Book

> more infos on here.
> amazon for dollars: here.

both are available in german and english (check out both links for the € and $ version. The second book is pre-orderable.)

Shops we love: Samt und Sonders | Vienna

zed melody — Mon, 01 Feb 2010 21:39:35 +0000

A little shop in the 3rd district of Vienna with lots of accessoires, gifts and well-designed home-stuff. We got in touch with the people there and took some photos of some products with our macro lens. The lightning was low (like in every store) but enough for some good shots:

A lot of work in the last days, but now we’re free for at least 2 weeks to post some more stuff for you:

Japanese Final Fantasy XIII Launch Line Report
A big party for all the FF XIII – awaiting people. We really want to be there, but just a flight-ticket for a release party would be too crazy

A first original gameplay video found on youtube from Final Fantasy XIII:

also interesting for game-fans like us: the japanese game-blog from andriasang.

Eventually we’d plan a trip to GB / London. Why?

Food we love: Delicious Monster | Vienna

zed melody — Tue, 01 Dec 2009 14:26:09 +0000

You enjoy your Vienna vacation and need some really really good and cheap food? You don’t want to drive hours to the outer/cheaper regions because you live or stay at the inner city? So you definitely have to check out the best burgers and food (also vegetarian, not only meat) in vienna at Gußhausstraße 12, 1040 Wien.

Shops we love: Favoritner ZOO | Vienna

zed melody — Tue, 01 Dec 2009 12:22:39 +0000

One of our favourite Pet/Bird/Aquaristic shops in Vienna is located in the Columbusg 27-29 in the 10th district. Most people in Vienna might think that the 10th district isn’t the most “likeable” place in town, but it’s a jump from the unterground metro U1 station “Keplerplatz” and if you need healthy fish and other pet stuff, it’s a good place!

Thanks to the lovely people who own this shop, we got the chance to take some pictures of fish and birds (through the gratings).

We love extraordinary people: Beardyman

zed melody — Sun, 22 Nov 2009 00:07:26 +0000

Midnight and clicking through a whole bunch of youtube videos, we found some stuff about the KORG KAOSS PAD 3 (which we also possess) and a guy named “Beardyman” (UK Beatbox 2006/2007 Champion) do a real go(o)d job with it: Beatboxing with his voice/mouth and resampling with hardware all in one.

The results are really professional, creative and rocking! His sound is a mixture from mostly DnB / Jungle to Techno with influences from a lot of other genres.

We really hope to see him in Vienna or around middle Europe in future. If you’re on a trip to England, you definitely have to check out his Beardyman @ MySpace account before. On our journey trip we’ll definitely get to see him live.

Count Basic – Concert photos from 13. November 2009

zed melody — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 20:34:47 +0000

Count Basic (not Count Basie – but the name is related to them) are an Austria R&B, trip-hop, acid jazz & smooth jazz band. Band Leader Peter Legat, the wonderful vocalist Kelli Sae (both working together for 13 years now) and a really really good band crew kicked our ass at the Gasometer to move to their groove beats and lovely melodies. Luckily we got the chance to take photos from the press box in front of the stage and it was great fun but also quite hard to shoot good photos, because of that low (sometimes red) light.
We enjoyed ourselves!
