F de OceaniC.)
Memory as future.
Fabric as spore.
Pixels as nostalgia.
Inland seas as exposures.
Aluminium as purity in vintage.
Painted whiteness as the thing already said said again with meaning.
F de Circuitry.)
Walks between buildings.
Balancing against wind gusts.
Braced for an end of cycles.
And the revision of the drivetrain.
F de Halo.)
Knows that everything that happened has happened and everything that is about about to happen is about to happen.
And, in regards to this wild, claw-foot knowledge of the physics of our times, F de C, well: is it at the point of turning ?
Or is it the point at which the turn was watched?
Or is it, between those two points,
crimped, crippled and widened by the encounter,
working in the closure of the conceptual, the opening of the POST-PRODUCT?
Or is it, more simply, the FINality and banality of things gone into conceptual-concrete crossover?
F de Affirmation.)
The answer is 'Yes', because, above all, F de C posts itself as a model of all this as PROblem-for-BEing,
as a static-adjusted wide-eyed critical analysis of the movement of things going between the ordinary and the
parabolic-hyperbolic-sterodical-joyousness.
F de Mishima.)
Of course, it is the going-between that is key.
Beyond the pastoralism and rusticity of the digital code, therefore, F de C is a real-time gesture of respect and regard and humiliated honour.
F de It-girl.)
It is a lip-stuck insertion of the intimate into the pulp of our times.
It is for the latent in the manifest.
It is the gestalt-psychoanalysis of clothing.
It is the open platform for friendships made through the spaces and objects of living.
It is in the present-tense and the ongoingness of a modernist moment limping from victory toward a new lo-fi world order.
It has brakes, it has sleeves, and does not use them.
It has a memory and has seen a lot of folk go down.
It has gone down after them.
F de Exhale.)
And it is more than fine with that.
Tossing its hair back, walking in old shoes.

reader comments on the F de C Reader #1:
I read the Reader - great great great! haven't read so interesting/intelligent things about fashion and photography for a long time!!!
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
... perfect the way it turns a fashion magazine on its head, how it becomes personal as you read it, how you can easily take it anywhere and actually read it on the subway(nobody reads magazine on the subway anymore, only read iphones or w/e)
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
i have been gradually making my way through the reader, i am not kidding i just keep it in my bag and keep reading bits and pieces, which i think is what was intended. ... seriously so excited when it arrived, i have even saved the package it was posted in with its 'books only!' handwritten warning on the front and the paper the reader was wrapped in, so great / i absolutely love the low fi quality of the printing, thin page texture because as its life evolves, it seems to develop this nice book in hand crushed and creased feel. i think it's uncompromising in it's pure content / the writing has an honesty, raw purity to it, (that to me, anyway) really speaks to me. there is a nice tongue-in-cheek / brian eno reference to russian strippers a backing band / chim-pom talking about 'super rat' etc and i am increasingly obsessed with the photography in the reader

... I like the book. It's design is really fun and playful, and I like the contents' range. ... Nice one .

The Reader arrived.. looks great..perfect analogue moment !
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
The reader is really well done, carry-reading it all over the place in fact.

oh what a wonderful thing the postman delivered to us!
wonderous
weird
whimsical
so modern it is pointless
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
somehow its more precious because of it and I leave it at home cause I don't want it to get crushed in my bag. The content is really nicely curated; its refreshing (and relieving) cause I've just been reading super dense dry theoretical stuff or nothing at all lately and my brain feels like its going mushy. ... congratulations on the first issue! I talk about it all the time to people because it's seriously so interesting.

... at first glance it is great! really like the quasi revolutionary artefact zeal to it. kind of like a remembered dream of transformation without nostalgia. the flattness is cool in this regard, as it kinda locates it between histories as i am sure was the intention. and you can't look at it without being super aware of the hand as a tool for carrying and fanning and flagging things down.
anyway, that was one take on the doc as an object, then i started reading it took off further. this thing has content! nothing has content anymore. except jacket magazine of course. ... you have the right blend of the personal and the public and this allows you to start deconstructing cultures from the human first rather than the semiotic or the bracketed """""cultural"""" (if that makes sense).
