After a several months stay in Milan, film maker Francesco Paciocco decided to produce a short film on the city that told a story about its people, places and essence. We really like his play with light in the film and the fact that he did not solely concentrate on architecture and landmarks, but captures people and life as well.

Director/Editor/Producer/Director of Photography: Francesco Paciocco
Music: Saltillo, “A Necessary End”

SlamJam Milan presented last year The Changes “Italiens” exhibition and has now released about a year later a book to the exhibition.
“The Changes are made up of creative minds of today, with brains in the future, and eyes from the past. The brains actually belong to Sk*thng AKA KING ELVIS, Tokyo Sex Pistol and Icecream graphic designer, FERGADELIC AKA Aries Overlord, the graphic equaliser and the brains and pen of Tonite, and Misha and Shauna, AKA Dennis ROussos, and Veronique Cliche, of PAM, famous for travelling around and making the things they make.
This is their first tour of Italia, and are ready for some cosmiK ARt Action in Milano’s best, SlamJAm. The show is an introduction into the world of their own. SciFi and Punk music. To the Tune of Disco and Metal. Think Stockhausen, The Creatures, Johnny Cash and listen to the CHangesMix, and breathe the fluroscent UFO’s. Late last year the stages a CHANGES exhibiton in Tokyo’s ZAMIANG, the basement gallery of Undercover. Stay tuned for more excitement in the near future!!! And beyonde…….”
The book is now available at SlamJam. Have a look after the jump at some pics of pagespreads.

Pharmacy Industry also known as PHCY was conceived by young designer Davide Martelli who has quickly become a star among “street couture” brands. After an excellent feedback from accurately selected shops in Italy, Spain, France, Great Britain, United States and Asia he decided to fix the brand’s positioning by opening the first flagship store “PHCY STORE MILANO” in via Vetere 7, milan’s latest nest of young fashion designers, during the smashing milanese fashion week.
Pharmacy Industry, well known for its famous “stars and hexagons” pattern which has been copied over and over, has never jeopardized its integrity despite the massification of many streetstyle labels keeping high quality standards and a persisting research in developing new collections which are exclusively produced in Italy. This past summer Pharmacy also showed at the Capsule Tradeshow in NYC, slowly entering the US market.
A mixture of an atomic bunker and the garage of your personal spaceship where raw concrete and unrefined wood suggest a post-industrial atmosphere inspired at Pharmacy’s latest collection “Sci Fi Fever”. The electric system runs along the walls through all-steel tubes spaced out by industrial switches. The writings on the wall of the mezzanine quote real comments people (fans and not-fans) left on PHCY’s website! The shop’s window is dominated by an impressive missile. The shiny white surface and the PHCY rosette play down it’s dramatic symbolism and emphasize it’s pure aesthetic value.
The store, while featuring lots of cold attributes such as concrete and other industrial features still reflects an overall warm atmosphere. Congratulations to the brand for this impressive move and translation of their company philosophy into a store. It is great seeing brands, that we covered from the very beginning making such big moves. The Hundreds also opened their own flagship store not too long ago and some other brands are following and will be opening their stores this coming year.
Now check out the Pharmacy Industry Store Milan in detail after the jump.

Kitsuné, the Parisian Musicians and designers, introduced the first Boutique Kitsuné Maison in Tokyo a while back. The next stop of their pop-up store is Milan and is taking place at the Go Gallery.
The temporary store will opened the 20th September, with a special opening party at GoGallery, and will last for exactly 4 weeks, until 20 October. It includes a wide selection of Kitsunè products on sale, most of them exclusively for the Italian pop-up store, like the A/W 07 “Pasolini” collection, including the Kitsuné / Pierre Hardy series02 collaboration, the newly released “La Glace au Sesam Noir” candle and a whole selection of Kitsunè Maison’s compilation and exclusive records. Via Honeyee.
Definitely a nice project. Since Kitsuné clothing is rather hard to come by you should try to check out Go Gallery in the next couple of weeks!
