The Quarterly

Founder of The Creative Book project, Sanj Sahota, who works as a designer for ORB Brand Agency UK by day, has turned to the popular crowd-funding website, www.kickstarter.com to raise funds to cover printing costs for the second issue of his latest endeavour, The Quarterly Magazine, which he describes as: "A creative journal with a focus on the photographic medium which aims to do things ethically and fairly".

In October, Mr Sahota and the team will also be hosting a 3-day exhibition in London to celebrate the launch of issue 2 of The Quarterly and further promote all of their contributors exclusively featured work from the printed magazine. "We're going to put together something amazing where people can meet our talented contributors and have a chance to see all of their work up in lights. True talent deserves recognition and we want to make sure we shout about it from the rooftops."

Vogue and Google Glass

When technology meet fashion the new elite product is born, so that what I think Google is trying to do with its overestimated cult gadget Google Glass. I think most of you remember the first appearance of "real" G-Glass on catwalk for Diane von Furstenberg Spring 2013 last September and then a First Google Glass Porn video. Okay you have seen a lot about Glass last year and they are not yet on sale. They are still a sort of futuristic way of thinking about the gadgets and Vogue just splash some fuel on its marketing fire with its latest photo-session. Shot by Steven Klein on location of architect Roberto Bruno's house the session is spiced by Vogue's short message "Beyond the blue horizon lies a futuristic vision of fashion—a beautiful minimalism tailored for the brave and the bold." vogue-google-glass-6

Maiko Takeda fashion photography

Maiko Takeda is a student of jewelry design and fashion, a fact that is apparent in these stunning photographs. Takeda’s portraits feature figures adorned or ornamented, creating interesting juxtapositions of light and shadow, geometry, space, and logic. Out of a simple and seemingly ordered concept emerges something intricate, chaotic, and mysterious. Takeda’s work is both elegant and bizarre, a world where beauty is revealed through obfuscation and composition. Takeda is currently pursuing a Masters in Millinery at the Royal College of Art. via

Amanda Charchian photography

The photography of Amanda Charchian is like a vaguely familiar dream. Her series featured here make a strange sort of sense in much the way a dreams do. via

“I really enjoy what I do, so I am constantly working. I am very fast paced and I like working in a trance state, so it doesn’t suit me to adhere to a particular plan. The process always starts with that sort of light bulb flash (usually when I am doing something really mundane), and then I refine the concept. With that concept lurking, the physical making of the work always becomes very intuitive.”
