The Whole Story


Debra Folz has created a very cute way to maintain and showcase your photographs in an open and creative way. These little books stand up on their own closed and opened, and are buyable on her site: www.debrafolz.com. Definitely something unique, something NYV.

Alain Delorme: Brilliant Photographer


Born a Parisian in 1979, a Master of photography at Paris VIII University, his latest work "Totems" is fantastic. " fascinated by migrants' loads, he has photographed (during 2009 and 2010) piles of stacked 'made in china' products which form unusual sculptures, symbols of a form of fetishization of the objects themselves." Take a look yourself. www.alaindelorme.com

Her latest creation is the Martha Stewart Cookie App which includes "instructional videos, baking tips, packaging ideas, kitchen timers, shopping lists, sharing options", its bound to be worth much more than its App price of 7.99. Chocolate chip cookies here I come.

Globe-Trotter Needs

"Synonymous with great British design, Globe trotter is the very definition of hand made luxury luggage. A modern day classic, the Globe-trotter case offers a uniquely strong yet lightweight functionality with a stark, instantly recognizable aesthetic." Beautiful designs, and a gorgeous classic feel. You can find them on www.globe-trotterltd.com.

A Different Kind Of Folding Bike

Check this new bike technology out on http://stridala.wordpress.com.

It takes 5 seconds to unfold and carries a whole lot of positives like:


Unlike other folding bikes, STRiDA has. . .
  • a comfortable, upright riding position with superb visibility.
  • the ability to roll when folded.
  • the smallest footprint of any full-sized folder.
  • no gears to worry about. Just pedal and go.
  • the easiest fold. No need to think about complex sequences. You don’t even need to bend down. Magnets do all the work for you.
  • a convenient umbrella shape when folded.
  • a clean, quiet belt.
  • no oily chain or gears. Your trousers stay pristine.
  • a large, distinctive triangular frame as the dominant visual.
  • one-sided wheel mounting for easy tire and tube changes.
  • a short wheelbase. In bike mode, it takes up much less space than most bikes. Pedestrians will thank you. In folded mode, it takes up next to no space.
  • the ability to prop up vertically.
  • a rack that makes a convenient stand when folded.


Prices start at 600 and go up to 1200. My favorite, the LT in cream.
