The second KNOTORYUS book.
It’s called ‘Everything I Drew (I Drew It For You)’. It has pictures, notes and drawings in it. And it will be available at Colette, Paris. (Thanks, Sarah!)

“Mind Racing Nowhere 1″ – (c) KNOTORYUS 2011
A few days ago, a much-loved Belgian actress was charged with racism after an incident in an Antwerp restaurant, causing all kinds of random commenting, mostly off-topic. We, Dominique and Stefaan, felt personally hurt by the events and we feel we have the duty to use the platforms we have created to write our own piece.
Even though our Fams are like : “We fully support you but this is scary shit.” The thing is, I’m not scurrred. We have a Danny McBride attitude about this: “Come at me bro.” ‘Cause that’s what you learn after a while. (OK, a couple of decades.) Kindergarten scolding will start you thinking about it, crying about it. But the most important pinnacle is the moment when grown ups start saying the same kind of stuff. While you were trying to be the grown up all the time. I don’t care though, this is for all our kids.
Here we go. And I hope you’re ready.
This one’s for all my peeps. Their parents. Their children. Basically this one’s for You.
Eastpak asked KNOTORYUS to design a backpack to be auctioned off to benefit Designers Against Aids. So this is what we did. We hope you like it. We hope you’ll bid on it.
That giant Ü plastered all over the front is, of course, the logo of our daughter site.
HERE you can read a brief interview with KNOTORYUS about the collaboration.
HERE is the international overview of all the artists involved.
The bags are on show at Bread & Butter in Berlin and there will be an Eastpak pop-up shop opening at Kleine Markt 10 in Antwerp on the 27th, where you can fawn over all Belgian entries, including ours.
Oh, and one more thing:
*BOOOOOOM!*

If you’re reading this to determine whether this video is worth clicking and spending 2:49 of your online time: mon Dieu! stop now and click this thing!
Imagine Vangelis, Enigma, and Ed Banger tag-teaming to produce a prophet for the end-times, dressed in blue cookies, commanding cosmic laser transport, choosing a concubine from the gathering of stunned humans and generally acting very God-like.
This is a first glimpse of the new album “God is Blue”.
My love for RA’s Wünderkinder Anna and Romain travels wide and deep.
Not only is their Antwerp store one of the greatest in the world. Every time you see one of them, talking seems obsolete. Just hovering around them drags you into a mystically dangerous world. Gets your blood pumping.
I just got invited to the opening of their new store in Paris, but unfortunately I won’t be able to make it.

Profess your love, watch the city from afar, get in a fight, hit the road and eventually close your eyes and let it wash over you.
The best Shlohmo tracks are made in moonless absences you have never heard of. And although this new one called “Wen Uuu” is mild and clear, it is still smudged with the darkness blotting out hope, the gale prophesying your downfall.
