And Then






The Prodigy - Firestarter 1996

Back to the original. The self-repetitive hardcore of techno grunge. A video that concurrently conveyed subculture into pop culture. Bringing back the faded memory of a pierced and hedonistic MTV generation. Formerly including myself.

Fantastic Planet










La Planète sauvage 1973

In love. From the very first second. Social criticism emerging from a Trojan horse known as surrealism. Masters and slaves. Destruction and self-destruction. Incredible imagery. And finally: Useful lessons in keeping a pet...

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.

Gym Inspiration






Neneh Cherry - Kisses On The Wind 1989

Isn't her outfit just absolutely flawless. A black high waisted tube skirt and a bra top - nothing else. Buffalo Style merged with minimalsim. Graphic and straight-forward.

Syncrisis










Prince of Persia 1989 & 2010

Please excuse my latest 80s-boy-loves-adventure-fairytale-computer-game-movie-adaption tendendies. But did I already share my childhood addiction of playing Prince of Persia on my 486 PC? Now you know.

Right Said Fred - I'm Too Sexy 1992

Models, armpits and Buffalo style. Mesh shirts, leather catsuits and broad belts. Shirts, cats and cupboards. This video might be known for an overstrung lack of taste, but mixed within are remarkably cool fashion shots.

Dune











Dune 1984

This movie is incredible. Partly disgusting and scary when confronted with evil Harkonnen's human experiments, but mostly stunning due to the monumental setting and imagery. I am also impressed by Kyle MacLachlan's perfect quiff.

P.S.: And how I loved the computer game. I wish my 386 PC back.
