Hi,
It felt like only a week but indeed, I’d known Zinetta for a year and that called for a
celebration. Ever since I knew this girl, so many things had happened and I had got to
know so much about a whole lot of things apart from architecture through Zinetta.
Sometimes you just forgot she was an interior architect with a passion for light as she
never stopped talking about all the other stuff that interested and influenced her.
Thought I’ld ring her and offer her to come over for dinner, just like she invited me a
year ago. “Oh hi, how good to hear you!”, she welcomed me. “Seems like ages since
we last met, didn’t we last see each other at that exhibition? Oh gosh, I’ve got so
much to tell you, can we meet?” This was perfect timing. “Well yeah” I answered
nonchalantly, “what about dinner at my place?”. “Brilliant”, she replied “I’ll bring
dessert. Still got some delicious chocolate pie left Francis made for me” We hadn’t
yet met and notorious Mr F was talked about again…
Come 8 PM, there she was. Brilliant as ever, she was a natural beauty. I took her
coat and offered to have an aperitive at the fire place. Not even having started her
drink, she mentioned a book she’d read on the subject of devotion. “Well, it clearly
said you can be devoted to anything, not only to a religion.”
It came down to people being stuck to a certain subject and really spending a lot
of time studying or working on it. Collecting stuff also. “Why, you could say my
devotion is lighting!” I asked her if she wasn’t exagerating just a little bit and, as a
result, she gave me that look I’d rather not see.
As if she hadn’t heard what I’d said she went on showing me pictures of projects
in which she’d used lighting in such a way, it really made the total concept stand
out. I slowly got the picture of what she meant by devotion.
During lunch we started talking about what had happened during the past year. From
getting into shape after winter, to kite surfing in spring and yachting in summer, just too
much to mention. “And don’t forget all the wonderfull stuff we saw and visited during
the cultural year in Bruges”, she added, as if I’ld ever forget.
We ended with a nice cognac in front of the open fire after we had eaten what I must
confess was the most delicious chocolate cake in ages. Still, I avoided mentioning
who made it. Instead of that I took out a small present for Zinetta. It was a beautifully
hand-carved ring eskimo’s gave to their loved ones as a symbol of eternal friendship.
Bought it from this weird guy callled “TT” a while ago. I could see she was touched
by this small gift as I thought I saw a tear in her eye. “Oh I hope this friendship can
keep lasting” she said quietly, gazing into the flames. “Thank you so much for this
present, it means so much to me. Can we meet again soon?”
I couldn’t have received a more beautiful present than this question and telling from
the smile on my face, I didn’t even have to answer the question, but just said “well
that was exactly what the eskimo guy told me when I bought that ring from him. Give
this ring to a loved one and you’ll never part”. She gratefully hugged and kissed me.
As I saw her taxi drive off later on, I sure hoped the ring would offer a little more than
just friendship. At least, she promissed to call me again as soon as possible...

Eleven Questions ...
04_
by Toon
... to
Marcel
Wanders
Are you devoted to anyone or anything?
I live with people and objects, not for them.
“Form follows function.” Or has this become an old-fashioned, noble thought which is
untenable in our culture where image/form is all?
Function is a to small and limited reference to understand our surrounding, Life is to beautifull and vital
to be limited by functionality only, life is a dance, form follows...........form always follows!
Are you particularly sensitive? Do you feel instinctively that a particular object is going to be a
success or not?
I think we all know which products will be succesfull, If you know the market and look well to all
positives and negatives and to the competition you can have a good idea. This is how most companies
survive. If you make special innovative pieces, without a lot of reference, it is more dificult to predict.
This are the pieces which are surprising flops ore bigsellers.
If you were allowed to choose the ultimate design project, what would it be?
You have just redesigned the MandarinaDuck shop in London. You have obviously not limited
yourself to objects alone. Would you refuse to take on a particular assignment?
I want to design a zeppelin.
I was very selective in finding my wife, not only because she will be the genetic basis of my childrens future.
I see no reason to be less selective in finding the right companies to work with. Together with my
clients I am responsible for the designs I realise. I want them to be durable valuable masterpieces.
This kind of quality can only be reached working with the best companies in the field.
V.I.P. Chair, Stone Chair, Mellow, Flower Chair, Gwapa,.Fishnet chair, Knotted Chair. You have
already designed a large number of chairs. Have you got a thing about chairs and couches?
What is your favourite spot in London? What did you eat, drink, buy or do there?
Speakers corner on a Sunday morning.
Which object in your opinion does not need restyling? Is there an object that you definitely do
not want to redesign out of respect for its “original” form?
Do you tolerate ugly things in your surroundings? Or does a really ugly object irritate you and
would you prefer to get rid of it as soon as possible?
Most objects have a strong original archetype, I handle the object, the archetype and the history with
the respect it deserves, my creativity is never an offence but always a respectful celebration of the
original object.
The connection to beauty is an inspiration to me on a constant basis, I did become a specialist in
finding the beauty in places where hardly anyone is able to find it. I will be inspired always, everywhere.
Do you believe in divine power?
You try and make your designs and their production processes as environmentally friendly as
possible. However, this might have an inhibiting effect. Or does this enable you to find creative
solutions to a problem?
A good and smart vision, a goal which is good for all, can only juice up the proces of design, it makes
the tresholds smaller, it makes the solutions closer. Design is a difficult game, only if you know why
you want to win it, you will find a way how to win it. It is the why wich makes the big difference not
the how......................If you know why you will know how.
12
Chairs are the mayor leaque of design, they are the most human objects and designing a chair is
making a connection with our "family", designers and creators of the past.
If I close my eyes and think of all the greatness in and around me I feel great power. It makes me
grateful because I know I can never give back more than what I did already recieve.
Marcel Wanders (1963) is without a doubt a great contemporary designer. His own
independent studio designs products and interiors for various international labels,
including Moooi, Cappellini, Chi ha paura…?, Mandarina Duck, Droog Design, Flos, Boffi
and Magis. He is also associated with Moooi and Lensvelt in the function of art director.
One of his latest projects was the Mandarina Duck Flagship store (page 10), and
although his familiarity with architectural designs was limited, he has yet managed to
transform this store into a breathtaking (or should we say ‘breathing’) experience.
This store is somewhat the ‘house of Gulliver (probably the most legendary British
traveller) and inside the store Gulliver stands tall (7 meters) with his fully naked bright
yellow posture and connects with his presence (and a build-in audio system) the two
floors of the building. Around him clothing and bags are presented on glass tables and
shelves as well as on 40 subtle breathing mannequins. Not only the mannequins are
breathing, but also a chromed high wall does while changing its surface from convex to
concave in a constant fluid rhythm. Enough reasons to call this shop a vibrant living
centre...and enough reasons to ask Marcel Wanders our eleven questions.

As with the Thub range, Modular also deviated from a rectangular design for this downlighter.
Downut’s body is made of laquered aluminium suitable for a 55W TL5 Circline. The light source itself
is hidden by an MDF disk as well as a polycarbonate filter. As a result, the emitted light is not
blinding. The MDF disk is meant to be overpainted in the same colour as the ceiling. Contrary to
classic downlighters, you get the optical impression the Downut is part of the ceiling which seems
to be emitting the light by itself. The often un-aesthetic reflector is invisible with this novelty luminare.
Re-lamping is made very easy, as you only have to unscrew the MDF disk in order to gain access
to the Circline. From a technical side, you also only need 12cm in height in the ceiling to recess
mount Downut.
Finally, this novelty always comes with its own recessed frame as well as electronic gear.

Crosslink
The new Crosslink line could be called a perfect example of
modular lighting (what’s in a name...?) With only a few of these
fittings, endless combinations are possible. In all four of the cross’s
indentations another Crosslink can be fixed so that finding the
right combination for each project becomes a creative game.

Square Moon Backlit
The Crosslink principle of having polycarbonate filters before and
behind the light source is also a standard feature on this luminare.
As a result it is perfectly possible to combine different colours
according to the project. Square moon backlit has been conceived
for 4 X 18W TLD and also is provided of Kyoto standard gear.
Square Moon Backlit is available as a wall or ceiling mounted
fixture. Suspension kits are available separately

modules available with AR111 / AR70 / MR16 / TL8 / TL5
Half Pipe
Our current range offers plenty of choice as far as straight, pure form
are concerned in the lighting profiles chapter of our catalogue.
Once more, Modular are setting a new trend by deviating from the
straight, rectangular shape and by introducing the first lighting
profile with a cylindrical shape: the Half Pipe profile.

Thub
Thub: taking architectural lighting to a new dimension
Thub is the first recessed mounted fixture in the multiples series with
an organic shape. Moreover, it also offers the possibility to combine
two different light sources in one and the same lighting instrument.
From an architectural point of view, it also is the first time that Modular
chooses to deviate from the pure rectangular design which is typical
for the multiple product group. Instead, the choice was made to
create a light fitting that virtually is part of the ceiling and no longer is
experienced as an interruption of the surface.
Thanks to its shell-like form, Thub offers the architectural freedom to
have the fitting’s polycarbonate globe mounted into the ceiling or to
have it come out of it.
The Thub range goes beyond merely lighting and clearly offers an
added value to the architectural concept of any lighting plan.

Facteur Cheval
Facteur Cheval (1836-1924)
picture below: Le Palais Idéal (1879-1912)
by Elke
BUILDING A DREAM ...
... and that is exactly what Ferdinand Cheval, better known as “facteur Cheval”, did. Inspired by a
beautiful stone he came across on his daily 32 km round at Hautrives, the unskilled mailman started
to build his childhood imaginated “palace” or his Palais Idéal.
From 1872 till 1912, that is 10.000 days, 93.000 hours or 33 years of his life he spent building this
castle, which has to be seen to be believed.
A bizarre combination of styles which seems to have emerged from far beyond the outer limits of
human imagination, where temple, mosque, Hindu sanctuary, feudal castle, Swiss chalet and the
manger in Bethlehem somehow all come together and meet.
He claimed it was his intention to show what a single man can do with a strong belief in his dreams
stimiluted with a desire to create something that would last. As Indicated in the many inscriptions and
poems he put on the wall.
I looked and I found
For forty years I dug
To create this fairy - tale palace
To realise my idea
My body braved everything
The weather, the criticism, the years
Work was my only glory
Honour my happiness
Since his request to be burried in his creation was refused, he started to work on his own vault in
Paris. A job he finished only 8 years later. Twenty months after he died in Hauterives at age of 88.

A pilgrimage to Dadizele
by Angelo & Angelino
It’s not easy for us to be Zinetta’s brothers. Probably because we have a different look but most of all
we have other interests. We like tuned cars, tuned cars and above all tuned cars. But the money is a
little bit short, because we have once again spent it on car-magazines, cigarettes and booze.
Therefore we decided to contact Mr. Modular, maybe he could offer us a job, so we finally can earn
some money and buy us a real nice car.
Mr. Modular wanted to give us a chance because we are sharing the same blood as Zinetta (which
can be often very hot and surprising). Our first job was to prove that we have journalist skills and that
we can handle even the lousiest subject. So he sent us on a pilgrimage trip to Dadizele, one of
Belgium’s finest pilgrimage places. It was obvious that he sent us on foot, to test our car-lustfanaticism.
We took the job, this could be a perfect opportunity to lite some candles and pray for our car-to-come.
Anyway, Mr. Modular had nothing to lose and we had everything to prove.
And so to the job...
The booze from the evening before didn’t make it easy on us to get up at 6 A.M. A quick shower, and
we were off to our pilgrimage. One thing we quickly learned was that Buffalo shoes are not the best
to wear on a 21km trip.
We passed through the Starforest and we celebrated the beautiful daybreak with a few cigarettes and
some aspirins (the hangover was still there). 500 meter later we encountered our first dissilusion: a
closed dry stockfish and bratwurst cabin. This was of course very normal, since it was only 7.07 A.M.
A few minutes later our dissolution quickly transformed into a higher state of mind: the clouds were
breaking apart, and the light was coming true. (This had to be a sign).
Mr. Modular asked us to stop at the ‘Villa Eksternest’ (on of Roeselare’s best known modern house)
and have a closer look at it. But since it was only 7.36 A.M. and they did not seem to sell any cars,
booze or cigarettes, we decided to continue our trip.
the Starforest
Angelino: left dude
Angelo: the other one
For the next few hours we passed fields, farms and unlucky Angelino ran out of cigarettes, so this trip
was starting to bore ourselves.
At 11.43 we arrived finally at the basilica. We went inside, and took some pictures (we had to prove
that we’d done our job). After all we were impressed by the height of the building, but it seemed that
the door to the tower was closed. Being fascinated of the towers, we went to the presbytery and
asked the priest to help us. So he let us in, and we were heading for the sky....
253 steps up. They do make you thirsty, so we drunk our Red Bull, took some pictures and went down again.
253 steps down. They do make you hungry, so we searched for a nice place to eat. Rumour had it
that “‘tKloefke” was a very nice place to eat Cowboy Steak. (Cowboy’s are cool, so it was obvious
that we wanted to check out this prairie-food.)
This had to be the most perfect meal we had in the last 6 months. (Except maybe for the Kölner
Burger King).
After this fine meal, we decided to go to Dadipark, belgiums coolest playground, but when we arrived,
it appeared that the park was closed. (for ever)
The money was spent, so we had to hitchhike back to Roeselare.
Luckily a chick with a '91 Peugeot 205GTI/1.9 picked us up, and drove us all the way back home.
Thank you Shirley ;-)

INTERIEUR02
Fractal again constructed Modular's eye-catching stand at this year's Interieur Fair - Xpo Kortrijk.
Modular wanted a cold, Antartic place to present their newest fixtures. For this reason, a giant igloo
was conceived by Fractal to meet Modular's needs. To obtain an igloo shape, a 1/2 sphere in selfsupporting isolating material was constructed, then the stand temperature was brought down to 8°C,
big ice-walls were mounted, and the general constructions inside were also made by the Fractal crew.
Without a doubt, this stand was a "refreshing" experience where visitors even could sip on a cup of
hot coco or wine, whilst enjoying the stand ambience.
Modular was not only present with their own presentation, but was also responsible for the lighting of
several other stands, that didn’t leave the visitor indifferent.
GOOD DESIGN Award 2002
Since 1950 The Chicago Athenaeum - Museum of Architecture and Design organizes the GOOD
DESIGN Awards and throughout the years it became one of the most important design compititions
worldwide. The jury bases their decisions on aesthetic criteria which measure innovation, form,
materials, construction, concept, function, utility and overall product appearance. They encourage
manufacturers and designers from all over the world to improve their standards and quality. For the
2002 edition the Museum received hundreds of submissions in different product categories and
Modular is proud to announce that the Hit-me (design by Bernard Rommens) is one of the winners of
a GOOD DESIGN Award. After the Lights of the Future Award earlier this year, it is already the
second international recognition for this exterior fitting in the shape of a nail. A list of other awards can
be found on the museum’s website www.chi-athenaeum.org.
DE LAATSTE WEEK
PASSAGEN 2003
A few months ago Modular Lighting Germany opened their offices in Cologne. This could not be
missed by the visitors of Passagen 2003, the side event during the International Furniture Fair. For
this occasion, Modular found their inspiration in the unfinished character of the showroom to come up
with a finished presentation.
DE LAATSTE WEEK
For the third consecutive year TV production company DeMensen made “De Laatste Week” (The Last
Week) for the VRT, the Belgian national television. This talkshow, broadcasted in the last week of the
year, gives a summary of the most important events of the passed year through interviews with several
persons that distinguished themselves in one way or another. For the end of 2002 the producers
designed a new setting and the Square Moon fixture from Modular helped them to create the lounge
look they had in mind.

something’s cooking
by Francis
LAMB SHANK WITH WHITE ABBEY BEER, CARAMELISED TOMATOES AND GRILLED POLENTA
ZINETTA’S FAVOURITE CHOCOLATE & ORANGE TART
Serves 4
Serves 8
- 4 lamb shanks
- 1 onion
- 1 carrot
- 2 cloves of garlic
- 5 dl white abbey beer
- 1 dl brown veal stock
- 100 grams polenta
- 400 grams water
- 4 clusters of cherry tomatoes
- oregano
- olive oil
- butter
- salt and pepper
- sugar
- honey
- assorted fresh herbs (rosemary, thyme, sage, chives, etc.)
- a bay leaf
For the orange mousse:
- 75 grams sugar
- 1 thinly sliced orange peel
- 20 grams water
- 3 egg yolks
- 1 whole egg
- 180 grams whipped cream
- 40 grams Cointreau
- 12 grams gelatine
- 3 dl orange juice
First prepare the orange mousse by cooking the sugar with the water and the very thinly
sliced orange peel for approximately 5 minutes (121°C).
Slowly pour this over the beaten eggs and egg yolks, stirring all the time. Beat in the food
processor until frothy and cooled.
Then add the whipped cream.
Melt the gelatine in the heated orange juice. Allow to cool adequately, add the Cointreau and
then pour into the mixture of eggs and cream.
Divide the mixture among 16cm diameter metal rings with a height of 1.5 to 2 centimetres
and place in the freezer for a couple of hours.
For the crusts, mix the melted milk chocolate with the crumbled crêpes dentelles. Transfer
into a 20cm metal ring and spread the rest thinly over some baking paper.
Remove the ring and place in the refrigerator to firm up.
For the chocolate mousse:
- 150 grams melted dark chocolate
- 250 grams whipped cream
- 100 grams sugar
- 25 grams water
- 6 egg yolks
For the crunchy crust:
- 120 grams melted milk chocolate
- 120 grams crêpes dentelles crumbled
In the meanwhile, make the chocolate mousse. Boil the sugar with the water for approximately
4 minutes (115°C) and slowly pour over the beaten egg yolks. Beat this until frothy and
cooled with the help of a food processor.
Mix the melted dark chocolate with the egg mixture and add the whipped cream.
Place your crunchy crust in a 20cm diameter metal ring. Cover with a layer of chocolate
mousse and top with a slice of the frozen orange mousse. Crumble the remaining crunchy
mixture and sprinkle this over the orange mousse. Now fill the rest of the ring with the
remaining chocolate mousse.
Place in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours until it has firmed up.
Use a blowtorch or similar to heat the metal ring so that it loosens off the tart. Remove the
tart from the ring and sprinkle with cacao powder.
If desired, garnish with chocolate curls and candied orange.
In a heavy pan with a thick base, brown the shanks in the olive oil until golden brown.
Then add the onion, carrot and garlic and allow to colour gently for a few moments with the lid
on. Quench the contents of the pan with the abbey beer, season with salt and pepper and add
some rosemary, thyme and bay leaf.
Allow to simmer with the lid on for approximately one hour over a very low heat.
In the meantime, place the cherry tomatoes in an ovenproof dish, sprinkle them with some olive
oil, salt, pepper, a pinch of sugar and some oregano.
Place in a warm oven (100°C) for at least one hour.
For the polenta, bring the water to the boil together with some salt.
Slowly add the polenta, stirring constantly. Allow to boil gently for about 2 minutes, stirring the
whole time.
Then incorporate a knob of butter and season with salt and pepper.
Transfer the polenta onto some cling film and shape into a thick sausage.
40
Chill well in the refrigerator.
When the lamb shanks are done, remove them from the pan, brush them lightly with honey
and place them under the grill until coloured.
In the meanwhile, sieve the sauce, add the veal stock and allow this to reduce.

Giambattista Tiepolo
10_
œuvre
by Peter
Giambattista Tiepolo was (1696 - 1770) the master of colour and light of 18th century. He was
trained under Gregorio Lazzarini but was actually formed by the study of Sebastiano Ricci and
Piazzetta among living painters and Veronese among the older masters. In 1719 he married the sister
of Guardi by whom he had nine children and at about this time his own lighter and loose style began
to form.
His first great commission for fresco decorations came in 1725, when he began the work in the
Archbishop's Palace at Udine. These already show the virtuosity of his handling, the light tone and
pale colours necessitated by fresco obviously helping him to break free from the dark Piazettesque
models he had previously followed. The Udine frescoes also show him developing as the creator of a
world in steep perspective beyond the picture plane, with the architecture receding into dizzy
distances. The highly specialized work of painting these architectural perspectives was done by
Mengozzi-Colonna, who did this work for Tiepolo for most of his life.
Following the Udine frescoes Tiepolo travelled widely in Northern Italy, painting many more frescoes
in palaces and churches, as well as altarpieces in oil which culminate in the gigantic Gathering of the
Manna and Sacrifice of Melchidezek (c. 1735-40, Verolanuova, Parish Church), each of which is
about 10 m high. The frescoes of this period culminate in the Antony and Cleopatra series in the Palazzo
Labia, Venice, which were probably finished just before 1750, when he left Venice for Würzburg.
He was invited to decorate the ceiling of the Kaisersaal in the Residenz at Würzburg by the PrinceBishop, Karl Phillip von Greiffenklau, and Tiepolo and his sons Giandomenico and Lorenzo arrived in
The Glorification of the Barbaro family (1750)

Palazzo Labia, Venice
Würzburg at the end of 1750 and they resided there for three years, replacing Johann Zick, a German
pupil of Piazzetta. He painted the staircase with frescoes, some overdoors, and some altarpieces as
well as the Kaisersaal, helped in the gigantic task by both his sons as well as several assistants. The
Palace itself is a superb example of German Rococo architecture and the combination of architecture
and painting into one vast and airy allegory - apparently referring to the Prince-Bishop as a patron, but
including Barbarossa and German history - is perhaps the most successful even in Tiepolo's career.
In 1755, after his return to Venice, he was elected first President of the Venetian Academy and in
1761 he was invited to Spain to decorate the Royal Palace in Madrid by Charles III. He arrived in
1762, with his sons and assistants, and painted the huge ceilings in the Palace in four years. In 1767
Charles commissioned seven altarpieces for Aranjuez, but Tiepolo's last years in Spain were
embittered by intrigues on behalf of Mengs, the representative of that Neoclassicism which was soon
to condemn his kind of splendid and carefree painting as frivolous. He died suddenly in Madrid.
His enormous output of frescoes and altarpieces was partly due to his practice (like Rubens before
him) of painting small 'modelli' which, when approved by the client, could be carried out by his skilled
assistants under his own supervision. Scores of these modelli and sketches survive, together with
hundreds of drawings. He painted very few portraits. He also etched many plates, and, with Marco
Ricci, was one of the founders of the great school of 18-century Venetian etchers.
Tiepolo died on March 27, 1770, while decorating the walls of a church in Madrid.
R U Watching

Futurastica

by Dominique Meersman
Dear Reader,
Modular keeps a constant eye on what’s happening in the world around us, not just only on
developments in our domain. What’s more, this way of observing evolutions of all kinds has
found a scientific footing in the recent years, known as trend watching. In this column we aim
to reveal the world of wonder this opens up to us.
Are you a “devotee”?
Being devoted can mean a number of things. For starters, have a look at how Webster’s Dictionary
defines devotion: “The state of being devoted; addiction; eager inclination; strong attachment, love
or affection especially, feelings toward (a) God, objects, movements or persons” This clearly also
means that people who are truly devoted to whatever it may be, regard their object of devotion as
pretty much the most important thing in their lives.
As described and explained in previous R U Watching columns I also mentioned a trend called
“beehiving”, actually meaning that a number of people are devoted to the same thing and want to
share their experiences, no matter what layer of society they belong to. Remember the decent
lawyers being member of the Harley Owners’ Group and striding their steel horses in
companionship of brick layers or people whom they never get in touch with otherwise?
Some movements are even on the brink of not being devoted anymore but of getting obessed. The
difference can be hard to notice. Examples are hard core soccer fans so devoted to their side they
would kill for it. Think of pop stars being stalked by over-devoted fans...
Let’s take a look what the marvellous world of statistics can offer us for a couple of global types of
devotion…
Guesstimates:
Guesstimates combine intuitive guesswork with estimations based on rational methods
such as scientific research or mathematical models (cycles, trend curves, likelihood ratios)
Let the following guesstimates help you to make your mind work:
Here’s some religious stats for you. Figure this: 80 % of the world population is covered by only 5
main religions. Obviously, not all people reported as belonging to a religion are devotees but it is
remarkable to see only 5 religions cover so many people and that eight out of ten states report they
belong to one of these. Religion Top of the Pops: (1) Christianity: 2 billion, (2) Islam: 1.3 billion, (3)
Hinduism: 900 million,(4) Buddhism: 360 million, (5) Chinese traditional religion: 250 million.
Another type of religion: sports: undisputedly soccer is the most watched and played sport in the
world. This past World Cup was watched by an estimated 33 billion people around the world for
almost 27 days. This makes soccer, the most watched single sports event in the world's history not
surpassed even by the Olymplics. With 600 million people, soccer has the most registered players
in the world than baseball, american football and basketball combined. In motherland England
however, there are more officially registered golf players than soccer players.
Just figure out for yourself what your true passion or devotion is and if you would move heaven and
earth to be able to stick to it. Well, why not do a personal check if you’re obessed by something or
not. Getting your next Zinetta for example…
Allow your brain to digest these guesstimates. Zinetta shall be back for more in the next issue. Sources: adherents.com

tennistronics

Future of the not so near future / tennistronics
Devotion? I first thought I was talking about God in the not so near future. People have many levels of
devotion to their God - or even none at all - and the simple fact that we will all be making increasingly
use of computronics (equipment that combines the functions of device, computer and electronics) will
do nothing to change this. The attitude of believers and non-believers of a particular God will no doubt
change, but to be perfectly frank, not being God, I cannot predict the future. Whatever, devotion does
not always have to be Divine. Which brought me to...
...tennis! Now there’s a Divine thing. In my opinion anyway.
Hmmm, even the fragrance of the red-brown gravel makes me drool (and let us not forget the women’s
dress code on court which is equally divine).
Let’s face it, how devoted must you be to play tennis at least once a week? Mental weakness can
explain a lot, even this. And of course you need a subscription to a local tennis club.
The wife of my tennis partner collects reading books. Nothing special about that you may think but I do
have to wonder why she has never actually read any of them. Is she perhaps too devoted to these books?
Fortunately, the not so near future is, well, not so near; therefore, I still have plenty of time to practise
and arm myself to the teeth with the latest tennis gadgets. By then I will perhaps be playing tennis at a
high enough level to finally give my eternal opponent, Mr. Yves Quadrofoglio, a hammering.
And so to the match...
6/2, 6/0, 6/0: he only won these two sets because the AutomaticSnareTensioner® on my racket was
momentarily defective. But with the help of my GAPP® (Global Appareil PassPartout), I was able to
download an update so that the built-in AutomaticSnareTensioner® did what it was normally supposed
to do: keep the strings at the right tension. The fact that I only in the last game noticed that my
AutomaticSnareTensioner® was no longer working shows that Yves Quadrofoglio was not much of an
opponent and that I might as well have been playing with a wet rag.
Another reason why I suddenly won against Mr. Quadrofoglio (even on one leg) are the new electronic
white lines. No way you’re going to be able to pull a fast one over these. If there is any disagreement
about the ball being in or out, a video is shown on the TennisFrauduLens®. Mr. Quadrofoglio tried 25
times to have the game judged in his favour. 24 times he had to admit with great embarrassment and I
quote: “Sorry, I must have judged the ball wrongly”. The other ball was indeed within the lines... only, the
lines on the neighbouring court. This of course plays havoc with the AutomaticRefereeEye® but it has
now been promised that in the following update of the AutomaticRefereeEye®, account will be taken of
balls way out of play.
The investment in the FilthySweatSensor® for my racket handle proved to be unnecessary. This match
was far from being tiring enough to make me sweat. What is useful about the FilthySweatSensor® is
the direct communication with the MixMyDrinkDispenser®, which can be found on practically every
court. Based on a sweat analysis every thirty seconds, a suitable drink is prepared for me. Between
games I got the chance to quickly sup the perfect mixture of salts, minerals and vitamins to completely
regenerate my body. That this MixMyDrinkDispenser® was no longer compatible with the 12 year older
Conditionometer® belonging to Mr. Quadrofoglio and as a result he could only get hold of ordinary
water, explained why he felt weak in the knees that day. Oh well, perhaps he takes his training scheme
too seriously and he had overdone it. The match was of course quickly over.
Naturally, we sealed our friendly match with a few corny jokes at the bar. Like we do every week in fact.
He asked me to support him as he was completely wiped out. I dragged him to the bar where together
we had a few glasses of NoPromilleBeer®. (Incidentally, isn’t it strange how we still call glasses
“glasses”? Glasses haven’t been made of glass for ages.)
In the car park, we each walked to our OnePersonMobile®. I again mentioned the score just to tease
him a bit. Maybe that reverberated too much - I was a bit loud after all that NoPromilleBeer®. We knew
only too well how we could turn NoPromille® into FullPromille® with the new PromessPromillePills®
(the only non-electronic gadget that we trusted).
As usual, Mr. Quadrofoglio took his leave angrily over the gravel. He disappeared in a cloud of dust.
Better luck next time Yves?

VIVE LA FÊTE –
MAQUILLAGE / HORRORMOVIES
METRO AREA –
METRO AREA
If you’ve been DJ-ing since the 80's you probably
will have most of the tracks in your vinylcollection, but even so this compilation is worth a
journey in your CD-player.
We can assure you, this album is here to stay in
your CD-player for a few weeks, because all of
the 17 tracks will not bore you or get you
nervous. Nope, they are created to dance to, and
not a lot more.
These sounds still sound sexy, and are made in a
decade where electronic samplers and
synthesizers where outlawed. (OK, we exagerate,
but let's say it was underground pioneering stuff.)
Anyway, this non-mainstream electronic
movement took place in derelict discos and
warehouses everywhere in Europe during the
80’s. And if the words Belgian New Beat comes
to your mind, have a closer ear to A Split
Second’s Flesh.
So if you want to know where electronic dance
music came from, this is what you need.
“Maquillage, c’est camouflage, et je n’aime pas.”
Why need more lyrics? This song is as
complicated as the lyrics, so expect nothing more
than a very simple, but yet, very very catchy beat,
and that’s what we like.
The other half of the EP (Yes, vinyl does have two
sides) welcomes you to the Vive La Fête Horror
show, which sounds more amusing than horror.
Anyway, this EP is a very fine teaser for their third
coming new album this year, and still has a very
Vive La Fête sound, and that’s what we like. Bravo.
This album was bought in Paris, (very ‘chique’ of
course, but we were looking for that album
already for a few weeks, so it screamed to be
bought when it caught our eyes). Anyway whilst
driving back to Roeselare we had our car full of
people fallen asleep from the tiring day we just
had spent. A frightening idea, because we finally
got our hands on Metro Area’s debut album and
we were so eager to play this CD through our
speakers, but then… all of our companions
would be woken up. And we didn’t want to wake
up a mother with child. Nope, we didn’t, so the
speakers where turned off at the back, and on the
passengers side. Hooray, still one speaker left.
And to be honest, this album is so good; it
survives on a low-volume-one-speaker-only-so-abit-like-mono playback.
Our fingers still hurt. They ricky-ticked too much on
the steering wheel. Nobody can resist Metro Area’s
disco-mixed-with-boogie-and-nicely-dressed-withelectronic-dance-and-deep-house happy beats.
Bravo again.

RICHARD DAVIS SAFETY
*****
What a surprise. Never thought that a never
heard of artist would be so overwhelming good.
Richard Davis could be a newborn singersongwriter. He sure has the name and the looks,
but then again, his music is too electronic to fit in
that category. But then again, these songs are so
‘finished’ they do fit in with this singer-songwriter
allure. Anyway, the content of this album is more
to be called ‘songs’ then ‘sounds”, (although he
uses lot’s of different sounds) and that’s what
makes this album so special.
So, for clarity’s sake, he is a singer-songwriter
but he does not play the guitar, nope, he plays
upbeat, varieted, electronic dance tracks, sorry
songs. And that’s enough said. Bravo bravo.

WEIRD NATURE –
CORNELIE TOLLENS
ARCHITECTURE OF THE NIGHT –
DIETRICH NEUMANN
With GB; Graphic Britain, Laurence King Publishing moves back
from Scandinavian design to their own national borders. Showing the
best of UK graphic design this book focuses mainly on upcoming
talents. Covering a period of three years in different areas of graphic
media, it gives an idea of how new designers try to establish
themselves and their identity in the graphic world of their succesful
predecessors of whom lots are still graphically active.
A quick look shows that vector graphics are still very popular besides
its advantage in flash environment. While other artists combine them
with pixel graphics and still others are taking deliberate refuge from
the clean computer designs.
In a world dominated by fastfood images Cornelie’s pictures reveal a
world that captures the eye and gently persuades it to come inside.
Once you've entered there's no way back: It's a mixture of confusion
that jumbles the nerves and gives awareness of the human body’s'
'romantic' side. Most erotic pictures merely aply to feelings of physical
desire and inmediate satisfaction or just the other way round; nudity
exposing vulnerability slash trauma. Cornelie’s pictures exude emotions
beyond these primitive, body related sentiments. This is erotism at it's
best: flirting with time and patience, beginnings and endings, humour
and horror, vanity and youth, desire and distance. The images seem like
the best shots from a narrative that has not been told.
This fascinating and richly illustrated book traces the history of
architectural illumination. The book containes 200 photos of which
100 in color. Examining 100 specific examples, this is the first
survey of the history of architectural floodlighting. An illustrated
account of the history of architectural illumination in American and
European cities. While the work serves as a historical survey of
architectural lighting throughout the 20th century, it also examines
the cultural, social and artistic issues surrounding this phenomenon.

TATTOO YOUR TOWEL
REAL DOLLS
Who has the time to sit down and embroider
anything? Just the word sounds painstaking, timeconsuming, intimidating. But this is a deceptively
simple activity. Embroidery is a perennial favorite
on home furnishing, clothing, accessories.we pay
big bucks for that extra-threaded touch and even
more if it's done by hand. But why shell out extra
for the handiwork that you can do yourself? "It
looks so hard to do". Pshaw. Embroidery is easy,
relaxing, and one of the least expensive crafts you
can take up. Anything through which you can pass
a needle and thread is game.
For the more wealthy among you there’s an
improved version of the inflatable doll. The dolls
feature completely articulated skeletons which
allow for anatomically correct positioning, an
exclusive blend of the most expensive silicone
rubbers for an ultra-flesh like feel, and are each
custom made to order, to customer's desires. They
offer an extensive list of options, from body type
and head type all the way down to fingernail color.
If you've ever dreamed of creating your ideal
woman, then this is the place to turn to.
On their website there’s plenty of choice for men but
the lonely women would have to do it with Charlie.
At last! Craft patterns and kits with a new look.
Now you can DIY with style....

An excellent site for those interested in “the art of
creative relaxation.”
The Russian Horizon 202 is a fully mechanical 35
mm camera with a 28mm swing lens design
covering 120° horizontally and 45° vertically. And
that’s enough technical info. Admire this camera
for its rough looks and its panoramic qualities. (not
like the panoramic button on a camera, which
merely crops the top and bottom of your image).
This camera is in production since 1989, but is
once again brought to us by the lomographic

aspect of your image will be very … Russian, so do
expect very beautiful images!

delivers a new stunning realistic environment. The
lighting effects make it the best XBox game for the

is similar to dolby surround. You can hear enemy

CHRIST FASHION
AL-MUAZZIN
At the prayer time, you are reminded of each prayer by a true human voice that
announces ALLAHU-AKBAR twice followed by the name of the prayer FAJR,
ZUHR, ASR, MAGHRIB and ISHA for the 5 different prayers respectively.
It has a built in Calender for the next 100 years and works in over 2,500 cities
worldwide. Simply enter your city code from our code list into the watch and
the watch will automatically re-calculate the prayer times for your city.
Al-Muazzin watch allows you to control the alarms. You can turn off the next
prayer alarm or all alarms. The nice thing about Al-Muazzin is that you can
preview the 5 daily prayer times. A daylight saving time function compensates
for the 1-hour difference during summer. The watch allows for adjustments of
local prayer time.
A built in compass on the watch band helps with knowing the direction of the
Kibla. It’s look, feel and functions makes it the only one of its type.
Imitation of Christ have been called "anti-fashion"
designers and "deconstructionists." With Chlöe
Sevigny as muse, they create their line by taking
thrift-store items of eighties clothing and
recontextualizing them-as high fashion. Last year it
was frumpy blouses reborn with the addition of
braided hair sashes; this spring, old prom gowns
with lace insets. It's earned them a lot of press and
critical acclaim. When asked Ms. Sevigny to
comment on the success of Imitation of Christ.
