Three Stripes for the SHORTY

Hollaaaa! We just found this cool Tumblr all about shorties in the adidas Three Stripe.

The pic above is a poster from our 'In Synthesis' group exhibition presented by adidas Originals, that we held at the Paramount Building just over a month ago. Shot by Rene Vaile featuring Shenay Carey wearing adidas Originals, and styled by Oyster's Ana Ifould, the poster was given to all those who attended along with a specially made zine with profiles on the exhibiting artists.

Check it!

REAL TIME - Dance of the Spirits by Alister Chapman

Real time footage of the Northern Lights, Aurora Borealis filmed on January 24th during the peak of a Solar Storm.  Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights) is a spectacular phenomenon that occurs in nature.  They are produced by tiny particles that rush out of the sun in all directions.  These particles are slowed down by the earth's magnetic field which releases energy that we see as auroras (colour waves in the sky), the colour depends on the altitude. 

 

The aurora borealis is also called the northern polar lights, as it is only visible in the sky from the Northern Hemisphere, the chance of visibility increasing with proximity to the North Magnetic Pole, which is currently in the arctic islands of northern Canada. It occurs often in Scandinavia as well. In addition, it is possible to see it during the day (it happens at all times but it is harder to see) and in different areas of the world. In fact, some rare occurances of the aurora borealis have mistaken people to take them for UFOs.
