Our columnists +41 (//DIY) recently did a video for Vitalic’s “See The Sea (Red)” from the album “Flashmob”. The video clip shows “a man recreating the 19th century experience of Etienne-Jules Marey on fluid dynamics. Smoke lines represent the notion of stability, the triangle goes for the disturbance and incidentally for the V of Vitalic. The concept of a flashmob is illustrated here as a result of an intruder perturbating a stable environment.” All in all a very cool concept and execution, so make sure to check it out!

After the recent incident in Iraq, where a guy threw his shoes at President Bush, PLus 41 and Cellophant reacted quickly and have released today the “If You Want The Facts, It’s A Size Ten Shoe” t-shirt.

The t-shirt is now available in the Plus 41 online store and of course also at Cellophane.

As an exclusive homage for Roger Federer’s birthday, Nike got together with artistcollective Plus 41 to create a special Nike Sportswear Flywire Windrunner, along with some other product.
Nike Sportswear official launch took place on 08.08.08 too; as a homage to one of the best and most well known tennis players in the world, Nike created a very special Gift Pack in collaboration with the Swiss artist collective ‘+41’. Here we present you the windrunner and the longsleeve shirt out of the pack.
What makes Roger Federer gift pack pretty unique are the exclusive graphic symbols created by +41 collective, showcasing the most important moments of his life as well as the biggest success stories of his career: for example there is a double merging ‘W’, which stands for his first Grand –Slam victory in Wimbledon in 2003. A perspective tennis court showed as an arrow with a crown on its peak, demonstrates his way to the long-lasting number one of the Tennis world class. And a symbol made of three tennis balls, lying on top of each other is the symbol for the family. Further there is a graphic of four swung into each other hearts, which symbolizes Roger Federer’s love for his girlfriend Miroslava (Mirka) Vavrinec. In total ten of these graphics decorate Windrunner and Tee.
the Nike Sportswear special Gift Pack was handed over to Roger Federer at the launch event of the Nike Sportswear Store opening in New York City, 21^st Mercer Street. This moment was captured by + 41 and will be displayed in an installation in the exhibition space of the Berlin 0808-store (Münzstraße 20, Berlin) in September. More on that soon.
Now have a look at detailed images of the windrunner and the t-shirt after the jump.
