World cup stuff – I’m a Berlinizer!

I am exited. Today finally is the world cup kick off, world cup mania in Germany, a unique experience. Especially in Berlin, we expect many, many people, hopefully a lot of sun and we want to be hospital and helpful and just have a good time all together.

“Berlinizers” is a campaign to make Berlin citizens visisible that are willing to help guests get along in our city. Make a short test on Berlinizer.com and they’ll give you a pin to display you are a Berlinizer. I just got one in Spanish! And I liked the Berlinizer song by Culcha Candela so much, it’s now even my ringtone.

Check out my tips (in German) for all the football in the club events during the worldcup in Berlin, featuring WM Lounge, Polarpark, Lido, Pop Kick and many more.

You see. I am really excited..

Multiplayer Online-Soccer

Worldcup-madness and you can’t resist? Thinking about the round thing all the time, want to see it dither in the knitting?

Now you can, with some überstylish football simulation: The Netzkicker. It’s easy, effective and fun, the most straight forward football simulation I have seen on the net. (And I have seen many: Yahoo has one, Intel tried it and RTL, too).
Run with the mouse, kick with a click. It’s still Beta, so handle it gently..

The netzkicker is realized and maintained by the online communications agency Face2net which I work for.

Futureboogie Mixes back online

Hurry! Last month they cut the connection because they had too much traffic.
Futureboogie is an online platform by guys who are really fans of Jazzanova, Compost, Sonar Kollektiv and Ninja Tunes. Just like Stylewalker.

They host sets of people they like, as well their own ones, packed with the best British taste since Gilles Peterson, plus interviews with King Britt, Recloose, Bonobo and many more.
Now they are back and running, e.g. with a brilliant, smooth, a little psycho and housy Dixon mix, Rainer Trüby, or Trickski with a spacy reggae mix!

Check Dixon:

Gnarls Barkley – Listen today!

Gnarls Barkley are DJ Dangermouse (remember the grey album – most downloaded music in history) and singer Cee-Lo who just made history with the first UK number 1 hit that was based on online sales alone.

From today until sunday you can listen to their album “St Elsewhere” on their MySpace-site. Album release is the 5th of may. What a hype! But: Cool music: funky, techy, souly and defintely Stylewalker-approved.

Danger Mouse is a workaholic. In between he produced the Gorillaz-album and among others an album with MC Jemini. Listen to a legendary interview on Radio One.

Sven Väth is alive

Sven FäthFoto von Christian JakubaszekThe godfather of techno is in a good mood and his message is cristal clear:
“Gude Laune, Aldaaaaaaaaaaaaa..!”

Love, peace and crazyness, ecstasy and ayurveda..
Everybody who thought Sven Väth these days is only about vegan food and healthy lifestyle was obviously mistaken. Voll drauf, Alda!

Landsky P3P..with Martin Landsky in Brussels. Watch a video packed with clubfeeling. Deep, sexy, sweaty music and party impressions from P3P-club in Brussels.

We need more club documentations! If you see any, tell me!

Let math and design mingle

ButanglasanimationRicard Marxer Piñón is an artist who combines the mathematics of signal processing with the esthetics of font, fotos and sound. On a highly abstract level he e.g. uses reduced letters to create new shapes out of words.

The animation on the right side is a processed picture of burning gas in a glass. He is also working with the (to me, until now, unknown) programming language Processing I recommend his highly entertaining website ricardmarxer.com.

I got to now him about a common friend who is an astrophysicist. Oh, it’s nice when the worlds blend..

Guns for sale in GB?

Guns for saleDid you know, in england, they sell guns on TV? Here’s a the Teleshop that put the Movie Icon spot even online!

It seems funny, in the end it is rather sad. More guns than ever sold today. This viral campaign by Amnesty International UK wants to raise attention for an international arms trade treaty which should be initiated by the UN and signed by as many countries as possible.

More info about the viral campaign.
