Aesop Brera
The first Italian signature store, Aesop Brera, is a contemporary
insertion into the fabric of Milan’s history. Occupying a corner
tenancy, the 60-square metre space is located in a nineteenth-century
building on the Piazza del Carmine, next to the fifteenth-century Chiesa
Santa Maria del Carmine. The neighbourhood, traditionally home to
artists and ateliers, is now one of the main centres of Milan’s annual
furniture fair, Salon del Mobile. A collaboration with local studio
Vincenzo de Cotiis Architects, the contemplative design gives a subtle
nod to its previous incarnation as a salumeria.

LOCKED OFF
Rave culture is one of Britain's great cultural exports, but after its first wave in the late 1980s and early 1990s it was forced into the underground by stringent new laws and the rise of licensed super clubs.
Fast
forward 25 years into the midst of a nationwide purge on the UK's
nightlife, where nearly half of all British clubs have shut down in the
last decade, and a new kind of scene has emerged: a 21st century version
of rave, where young people break into disused spaces with the help of
bolt-cutters and complicated squatting laws, to suck on balloons and go
hard into the early morning.
But with the police using
increasingly extreme tactics to clamp down on these parties, and more
than one fatality causing a nationwide media panic, can the scene
survive?

Chiharu Shiota: The Key in the Hand
Chiharu Shiota born in Osaka, Japan and lives and works in Berlin, Germany for the past two decades.
The Key in the Hand is an elaborate weft of red wood and keys that dangle above two old-aged rustic boats for Japan Pavilion at the 56th International Art Exhibition Venice Art Biennale.
Chiharu Shiota explains “In this installation I would like to use keys provided by the general public that are imbued with various recollections and memories that have accumulated over a long period of daily use. as I create the work in the space, the memories of everyone who provides me with their keys will overlap with my own memories for the first time. these overlapping memories will in turn combine with those of the people from all over the world who come to see the biennale, giving them a chance to communicate in a new way and better understand each other’s feelings.”

OLD VISVIM NEVER DIES
Whenever I get a new pair of shoes, I immediately break them in by stepping on the left shoe with my right foot, and the right shoe with my left foot.
It's similar to getting a hair cut, and wanting to get over that odd, uncomfortable feeling.
I wear them on rainy days, while washing the car, an in any situation in a carefree manner and even when they get dirty it's not a big deal to me. I'll brush the uppers from time to time or change up the laces, and before long the leather begins to soften, and naturally mold to my feet.
The more you use something, the more you see it becoming a reflection of your own character, and you begin to feel an inexplicable fondness for the object. The fact you own something like this brings you happiness, and I am drawn to these kind of objects.
When I design products, I consider what is necessary to make something long-lasting, or what kind of things can be enjoyed for a long time. As I ponder those things I also think which materials, dyeing methods, and constructions will aid in that pursuit.
For example, the color in denim will fade over time, but the way in which it fades is dependent upon the wearer's environment and the way the denim is worn. It's the same with vegetable-tanned leather. These materials are highly affected by climates, temperature, sunlight, and the wearer's environment, which is precisely why human character is reflected so well. That metamorphosis is beautiful.
Personally, I enjoy watching this change, and as a creator, it truly brings me joy. - Hiroki Nakamura

"I would wake up in the morning and my Dad would come knocking on my
door, telling me it's time to go running. I remember wanting to stop but
I would push myself to keep going. I would think about my dreams. I
would think about the sacrifices my parents made for me. I would think
about my little sister and how I was her hero. I would look at the
beauty around me. The sunshine through the trees. I would keep
breathing. There are things I'm still afraid of. When i have to conquer
those things I still go back to that park. Before hitting the stage I
still go back to that park. When it was time for me to give birth I went
back to that park. The park became a state of mind. The park became my
strength. The park is what made me who I am. Where's your park?"

Juvenile - A film by Jovan Todorovic
What is life like in a Serbian young offenders institution?
Being young today often seems to hold more
fear than hope. This atmosphere of despondency is particularly
prevalent in the largest juvenile correctional facility in the Balkans,
where Jovan Todorovic and his crew filmed the lives of the minors that
have been forgotten and sidelined by Serbian society. Juvenile,
which we're premiering on Dazed, documents life within a correctional
facility for the young adults and children who've been sent there. For
these young people, who range in age from 14-23, the outside world can
recede into an unfamiliar place – particularly given that the longest
court sentence that can be imposed is four years, a lifetime for any
restless young person who dreams of freedom.
Juvenile communicates the monotony and hopelessness of a
life lived removed from the outside world whilst showing how youth is a
universal concept, with the hopes and fears of the minors within the
facility being no different to those who live outside of it. But for all
that the subject matter might appear at first bleak – particularly
given the uncompromising visuals of the post-Soviet correctional
facility itself – Juvenile is a hopeful film. Watching it, you
believe that there might be a positive resolution and some sort of
redemption for these teenagers, many of whom hold on to religion as a
way of processing the reality of their life within the centre.
Though many of the young people portrayed in the film are likely to never fully escape a life of crime, Juvenile
maintains a candid and honest approach. This is a film in which the
young people are allowed to speak for themselves, given a voice without
editorialising and judgement. We see them playing, telling
Jesus-as-a-pothead jokes, smoking incessantly (almost all the young
people seem to permanently have a cigarette in hand, which underscores
the reality that much like those in adult correctional facilities, often
there's not much else to do but chainsmoke and dream of the outside
world). In order to achieve this closeness with the young people he
depicted, Todorovic and his crew spent months living within the
facility. By participating in their daily lives and not letting the
stories of their past saturate their portrayal in the film, Juvenile connects
with the teenagers on a more intimate level. The result is as raw as it
is captivating, capturing moments of dejection as much as instances of a
faith and hope that even a life within a facility can’t fully
extinguish.
