Just came back from BBB...

Monday, January 25, 2010 1:18:48 PM CET

We just came back from the ”Bread & Butter” exhibition in Berlin, which took place in quite an interesting historical building: The Tempelhof Airport. Tempelhof has been designated as an airport since 1923 and in 1941 the current terminal building was taken into use. At one point it was among the largest buildings in the world and Norman Foster described it as ”the mother of all airports”. An impressive sight! Anyway, we were on the “1st floor” – a section for young and upcoming brands (read companies with limited funds!) situated rather remotely in the very corner of the old airport. On the lower left corner of the collage you can actually see the view from the "1st floor" and surely we where quite delighted not to be part of that borring, traditional-tradeshow-atmosphere down there. Instead the "1st floor" kind of reminded us of the old A-house days, with the small almost ramshackle rooms, where we could do whatever we wanted. Some local artists had installed the walls with some simple art, super well suited for our little setup. Our friend Rolf from HAY had helped us with some cool and simple furniture and Bo from I'm a kombo helped us with little fun play-stop-pause-rewind cookies that people could enjoy with their coffey from the next door café. Thanks to Rolf and Bo. Altogether it was three well-visited days in company with our friends from WoodWood, Happy Socks and Libertine-Libertine. And hey, we even got to try out the legendary Berghein Panorama Bar – quite an experience!

Tips for better ideas

Sunday, January 24, 2010 1:18:48 PM CET

Even if the thought of classrooms scares your creative soul, the Rethink Scholarship should get your creative juices flowing. Their attempt to spread the news about their $ 18 000 scholarship makes your childhood pop-up books look terribly outdated and sets a new standard for creativity with 'analog' tools. In an age of increasingly cheeky attempts at viral succes, this video is refreshingly genuine and surprising. Now go apply!

LEGO Mini Figures...

Sunday, January 24, 2010 11:18:48 AM CET

Our friends from LEGO have just launched a line of Mini Figures perfect for collectors. Series 1 consists of popular iconic figures from the LEGO world. Due for a 2010 release the series is made up of 16 figures, each blind packed, so you’ll have to shop around to get the whole collection, but as they are just $2 each, it won’t empty your wallet.. Series 2 could be a curated series, who knows?

Here's a few pics from a night with I'm a kombo...

Wednesday, January 6, 2010 1:18:48 PM CET

It was an untraditional "Christmas Lunch" rejuvenating our understanding of how to eat food. Eating from a trash can, from a lamp and from a Christmas tree. Kind of strange, but at the same time rather amusing, especially looking at everyone else around the table and how their face expressions evolved through out the night...try it! Rumors say they've found a new venue and will be doing another round sometime in February. their website will keep you updated.

2009 in 22 tracks from 22 genres...

Monday, January 4, 2010 5:13:19 PM CET

For the record, this is my first contribution to the AIAIAI blog. I usually blog about music at goingotherplaces.com, and I hope to keep you entertained on here, too, in the future.

Until 2010 gets its own soundtracks, the Dutch playlist-portal 22tracks has invited 22 different genre-experts to each pick their favorite track released in the last year from one of 22 different genres. The tracks include Breakage's cutting-edge dubstep, Japandroid's noise pop, and Lindstrøm's pleasant vibes, but also visit more experimental grounds with Steve Reich's compositions and a healthy dose of reggae, jazz, latin, and jazz thrown in for good measure. Don't let the genre-craze intimidate you, the tracks are all solid and well-worth a listen until 2010 delivers its own soundtrack.

Merry X-mas from AIAIAI...

Tuesday, December 22, 2009 5:13:19 PM CET

Before our grand X-mas lunch at I'm a komBo (will bring you photos of that later), we went through the freezing streets of Copenhagen to visit some friends and wish them a Merry X-mas. We started out at the Pølsevogn (sausage wagon), went by all the little legendary pubs, that truly mean a lot to our Danish culture, passed WoodWood and Norse, went down to Studiestræde 31 - where we might move to at some point - and ended up with a cup of varm chocolate by our friends at Ricco's. We took a few pictures on the way and created this little sequenze....Merry x-mas!!

I'm a komBo has just opened a super cool pop-up restaurant...

Wednesday, December 16, 2009 5:13:19 PM CET

Our good friends from I'm a komBo (Lasse & Bobby) have just opened a so-called pop-up restaurant at the A-house, where we used to reside in the old days. The restaurant is open for the month of December and it's been overbooked long before it opened. Luckily we got a few seats and are heading there on Saturday for an AIAIAI Christmas dinner. Will bring you photos next week.

Ace just opened a little pop-up store in Tokyo...

Thursday, December 3, 2009 5:13:19 PM CET

Pop-up stores seems to be the new thing to do and most of them are not worth mentioning. When we where in NYC last month we met up with the people from ACE HOTEL and they told us about their upcoming pop-up store project at Isetan in Tokyo. Featuring all their really cool collabo stuff through out the years, this is actually not just a matter of selling out the stock they have left. Congrats to Jou and his crew for pulling it of! Make sure you drop by if you are anywhere close...

Beck Covers The Velvet Underground & Nico

Tuesday, December 1, 2009 5:13:19 PM CET

In case you missed it, Beck has started what he refers to as a "Record Club" where he gets together a group of his friends and covers a classic/famous album from start to finish. For the first album, he joined with a series of folks including producer Nigel Godrich, Joey Waronker, Brian Lebarton, Bram Inscore, Yo, Giovanni Ribisi, Chris Holmes, and from Iceland, special guest Thorunn Magnusdottir. Some of the tracks are better than others, but it sure sounds like they had fun recording the stuff!

Check out musicalpairings.blogspot.com where you can download MP3s from the set.

We just created our own little T-shirt Label...

Wednesday, November 25, 2009 5:13:19 PM CET

We just created a little T-shirt Label at AIAIAI LAB. The idea is to release a new line of tees every once in a while. It could be resembling one of our partnerships, it could be an artist doing a cool print or just some kind of statement we would like to share. The print on the tees below are all created by MIX - our creative head at AIAIAI. They are now available in our webshop and will also be sold at selected stores throughout the world. Check them out by clicking on the picture below.

Cool footage of our test procedures...

Friday, October 9, 2009 6:13:19 PM CEST

In striving to improve our products and pursue the desired quality, we put our products through a durability test using these amazing robots. They'll pull the cables, push the button, plug the plug over and over again. We've created this little video footage to show you how it looks and works - quite cool!

Apart from this functional testing procedure we also test the sound response with our partners from Bruel & Kjær.

- edited and musically composed by our creative designer Kasper. Put some sound on!
