When a sunshine fades away....
If you've ever met Jayne Helliwell you know that she was a shining spread of light.
We've worked with her on a few projects and its been so easy, smooth, always so lovely to spend time next to her.
She is now creating from another place.
Some people say that some of the most beautiful souls are called on to go on bigger missions.
Life is really fragile. We are so lucky to be able to see, hear, feel and have each other to share it.
Jayne Helliwell, Thank you for being so special and making such beautiful work.
Rest in Peace with the angels.

*GIRLCORE* SPLASH! TONIGHT
It's nearly the end of the month and that can only mean one thing. Apart from payday.
GIRLCORE obvs!
While some of the Girlcore contingent are sunning it in Miami (bitches) we're having our own seaside party. This month's theme is underwater: think mermaid babes, Daryl Hannah (then not now), shell bras, deep sea divers, tropical fish, buried treasure, Octopussy...
Isa and Loki are far away so we have two very special guests for you:
JOYCE MUNIZ
http://www.myspace.com/joycemuniz
Joyce Muniz is a Vienna-based, Brazilian DJ, vocalist, club promoter and producer and one of the busiest female electronic-artists currently in Central Europe, with a jam-packed schedule of international gigs and a recent release on Daniel Haaksman’s Man Recordings label. On this Kubo 12” Remix of Mela & And You Joyce’s chanting vocals and Vienna’s Bassmonster Stereotyp’s dark and rough beats create a captivating floor-filler. Joyce’s percussion-based DJ sets provide a diverse sound, a musical journey through Afro beats, Tropical Tech, Electro and House. Major.
CAPTAIN MAGIC (PEANUT BUTTER JELLY TIME)
http://www.myspace.com/itspbjtparty
One of the true superheroes of club promotion in London, Captain Magic aka zesty Zara has been hosting the busiest and messiest of warehouse parties for a little while now, drafting in the likes of Greco-Roman, Niyi, Micachu and loads more. When Zara's not running around promoting and trying to turn London into her Hip House Playground you can catch her booty bouncing behind the decks to her Baille/B-more/Hip Hop Beats. Ghetto fabulous bebz!
and of course your faithful GIRLCORE resident mermaids (sea monsters):
NAOMI//

HOW TO MASTER DOUBLE EXPOSURE
These pictures are from 1994, when I was 15 -yes, im that old, but I got to see Nirvana live and basically, you are all copying my style now - I just have to go to my mom s and get my old clothes and YES, I still fit in them-.
I accidentally overexposed my dad's film. Here you have the results----> im the boy in red t shirt btw, and the cool guy is my dad, Lic. Norberto P. Corsaro
group of reckless teenagers skipping school and illegally drinking beer + cool "I knew it" guy (click on picture to see it big)
bunch of sexy teenagers + cool guy, challenging our conservative notion of "right composition".(click on picture to see it big)
Labels: 1994, double exposure, smell like teen spirit

FAMILY ALBUM
I've been spending almost two months in the place that I used to call home: Buenos Aires. Every time that I come here, it feels like traveling in a time machine. So here I am, sharing with you some of the best pictures I ve found in the drawers. Enjoy.
This is my granpa Domingo aka Mingo (first bottom right) getting pissed with mafiosi friends.He is my grandad from my das's side, the Italian one. As you can see, silly pictures arent exclusive of the digital era.
and here we have my basque grandad, from my mother's side: Tulio ( second top left). He's at some sort of gathering in the country side with a bunch of gauchos.
wowser to this one. my mom at some modeling moment.
and the first guy on the left is my dad. he could be anyone in Shoreditch, but those wouldnt be having drinks with pimps and tango singers who died young in a knife fight.My dad was the only one that went to bourgeois university, the rest of these people are in jail or dead. university saves lives.
my first fashion photograph ever. i took this picture of my sis when she was 7- i was 10. she quit modeling and now spends most of her time in church.
and the last gem: me trying to enhance my latin- ness. i keep failing on this task.
