The Travel Almanac

The Travel Almanac Edition 1

My friends Brooke and John have been developing The Travel Almanac, a beautiful new magazine that recently launched.

About:
The Travel Almanac explores the topics of traveling and temporary habitation from the personal perspectives of innovative figures in the fashion, music, art, and film worlds. Addressing an increasingly mobilized creative community, it is the first publication of its kind to speak to this sophisticated generation of travelers. The plurality of this community inspires the magazine to focus on individual’s personal experiences and the effects of travel on their lives and work.
Our first issue features original interviews and conversations with director, David Lynch; Javier Peres, Los Angeles/Berlin-based gallerist, curator, and owner of Peres Projects; Andy McCluskey, lead signer of the legendary 80’s band Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark; James Murphy of LCD Soundsystem; art-star Terence Koh, as well as many other cultural icons and innovators. The issue also contains a feature on Japanese Ryokans (ultra-traditional countryside hotels), as well as personal travel stories, and reviews of the most exceptional and interesting hotels worldwide.

Live at Guggenheim

Bureau V performing live at the Guggenheim

Last night we performed with Assume Vivid Astro Focus at the Guggenheim Museum as part of the Eye to Eye series. We created a sort of soundscape somewhere between the Velvet Underground and Kraftwerk, but noisier, more abstact, and surely not as good. Our set was surrounded on all sides by Kandinsky paintings. We actually were required to keep our distance in case of a catastrophic technical failure. We perform again tonight.
