When I woke up this morning, I did my digital native ritual as follows: while still rolling in bed I checked (in order of appearance) my email, twitter, facebook, blog reader. The first 3 didn’t really amaze me with something extraordinary. While checking the blogs I am following I stumbled upon this post by Brian Kenny. It was a mix

In the industrial cities, tiny little particles in suspension flutter, coming from industries, cars and sometimes even from hydroelectric power stations: it’s the DUST. Hidden, silent, omnipresent in our lives, it lands everywhere: the house, the roof, among the hair, the fingers…. DUST is a publication that will be launched on September/October 2010 and that is brought to us with
Read MoreAmerican Apparel is so 2000 and late. Dov Charney (CEO, AA) reinvented the shorts, briefs, tube-socks, V-necks, tight long-sleeves – these used to be the basics of every queer wardrobe. It was even more exciting for us children of former USSR where communism brought some real vintage sexyback (from today’s perspective) but where no one realized it back then. Well,

If it wasn’t for FUR_02, you wouldn’t be really reading this. Stefano is 24 even if he feels older. He grew up in Iglesias, a small town in Sardinia, used to live in Northern Spain and is based now in Cagliari, Sardinia. He is single and wants to go on like this for a while connecting with new people as

If someone told you there is a summer hole where nothing really happens and no news get published, tell them to shove their boredom and lack of motivation you-know-where. There is some fresh breeze on the queer press front and for once this freshness is not just a cheesy metaphor. Client is a truly unconventional (we’ll se about that!) magazine
Read MoreI was at the local adidas originals store in Berlin looking for some summer bargains. Unfortunately, all they had were those hideous black and white Stan Smiths. So I decided to go for something Japanese at Onitsuka Tiger. Anyway, since this is not a PR article and I am not getting any money either from adidas or from Onitsuka, i
Read MoreIf you are an average girl taking the pill, you’d think Naoki is crazy to dare having the idea for such invention. However, you can’t call yourself a real drag queen if you don’t have a Naoki Kawamoto Menstruation Machine. Fitted with a blood dispensing mechanism and lower-abdomen-stimulating electrodes, the Menstruation Machine simulates the pain and bleeding of an average
Read MoreThis was a tough one. 2 days in a roll I’ve been nipping, tucking, editing, choosing music, converting, recycling and extracting. It was a rough ride, but I enjoyed every single step of it. What I’m talking about here is the video interview with Gerry Visco – devoted horny nerds don’t need further introduction. For the wannabes: Geraldine Winfried Visco
Read MoreBerlin is the center of many kinds of start-ups – commercial start-ups like extravagant companies or new products; political start-ups like fugitives seeking shelter and personal start-ups like young actors and aggressive self-publicists.

There are a lot of porn actors in Berlin. Marcel Schlutt was one of them. The 32-y-o actor based in Berlin, used to be one of the sales magnets for Cazzo Film. He then went through the bold creative factory of Bruce LaBruce in OTTO where he learned to come out of his shell… and eat raw rabbit flesh. Now

It’s been quite hot lately. Sunday was actually the hottest day in the history of Berlin. Monday was just the same but on a workday. Weather has been going bananas recently in Western Europe. Usually I am waiting for the summer to end to go back to Bulgaria for a couple of days, but this time summer caught me flat-footed
Read MoreAsger Carlsen’s work is wrong and it makes me uncomfortably clumsy. But in the same time it’s hysterically funny. His artwork is like a lie you can easily get away with or a made-up story you don’t have to justify. The art mission of the New York based Danish photographer is to spread confusion: You have no other choice, but
