Recall
Top Christina Aguilera
Bottom Girls Aloud
As I've still not seen any result of perpetuating the topic I'll explain it one more time: This is Barbie Fashion. And it got lost. Sometimes it still appears in Cheryl Cole videos. But we need it in an everyday context.

The Fall
The Fall 2006
Morphine for the eyes. An unjustly underrated and unregarded piece. The world re-constituting itself. Constantly shifting. And merging its narrative levels. It's like a Jean-Paul Gaultier collection replayed as a movie.

Optical Reflection
Top René Magritte, La Reproduction Interdit (1937)
Bottom Rokeby Venus, René Magritte (1651)
Images of imaginary vanity. I am wondering: How is the phenomenon called depicting a mirror image that is seemingly endlessly multiplied in itself? Who knows the technical term and can name examples of its appearance in popular culture?

Thin Line
Furniture Acne
After a disappointing 'no sale' shopping day I escaped into the mysterious and rather addictive voids of online shopping. The virtual shopping cart remained empty but I rediscovered another object of desire.

Winter Sleep
Rick Owens Fall/Winter 2006
This collection captures my current condition best. Wrapped in blankets and thermal wear. Minus degrees and black currant tea. When having a closer look, I do wish for Rick Owens's return to skinny boys sportswear.

Cordially contributing a photographic interpretation of the essence of Lynn & Horst, the creator himself states: "These are pairs, but pairs not that they are separate but that they are slight shifts in viewing of an object. Each is a study that I keep in the background of my studio, pinned to the wall. Lynn & Horst I also come back to as an example of a study, the pairings of objects and references. In these desk and model studies the objects and references become each other."

Wooden Veneer Fight
Rodarte Spring/Summer 2011 vs. Bavarian balcony
Absolutely loved this collection. Carvings on planks as dresses. One cannot deny a certain resemblance to the traditional Bavarian balcony. Or the typical yet brutal wall systems Germans are so fond of. But yes, bad childhood memories can be transformed into renewed contexts of beauty.

**New** - C.B. Design Insert Wheels
The new C.B. Design Insert Wheel has many of the same great features as other C.B. Design Wheels; however, it has been designed to accept wheel inserts. Machined wheels are generally available in a relatively small number of designs - one reason is many wheel designs do not lend themselves to accurate reproduction when machined (or the machining required is prohibitively expensive). Initially available in a 15x7mm size which fits Ninco "Classic" tires (21x7mm or 21x9mm), look for more sizes in the future. C.B. Design 15x7mm Insert Wheels will accept Slot.It inserts (15mm) or you can create your own inserts by turning down old plastic wheels.
For more information, please visit the Slot Car Corner or Slot Car Corner Canada website.
