All Gone, or is it?

The hyped street culture book entitled All Gone released worlwide this week on it's fourth year. The book is pretty fitting all gone from most of the retailers already, but i managed to snatch mine from the local Wood Wood store yesterday. The book itself is like we know it. A beautiful layout, and quality pics. A pretty complete collection of the efforts from various artist, stores and brands. We all know the big deal in this genre, and it does not need further introduction. When skimming this book i am pretty surprised to see how much 2009 has offered, and that is the fun part about this book. In 10 years it will work optimal, but right now for the time being it really screams as a giant commercial.

The Collaboration scene keeps on growing, and it is no secret that we do see at least as many failed attempts, as we see well performed projects. But in all the uproar i cant help to think for myself what a good collaboration really is. The first thing that fascinated me was also very obvious. The work between large and small scale. The opportunity for a small company to get their creative minds in to work on something big. To get the personal style rocking on a piece of foreign and different design, or rework the classiks, and the chance to create something rather unique. I myself hope to see more of the personal, well thought and interesting colabs this year.
