Started as a visual diary by Jan Philipzen, ‘Ravedeath Convention’ soon grew into a hybrid of autobiography and fiction. While love, joy and friendship are explored, violence and excess come about too, often captured only as traces and symptoms. A collision of different, occasionally mismatched, cultural symbols stresses... ​The first pictures taken at age thirteen, this series of black and white images is the edit of a continuous process of photographing, revisiting and reworking over a span of ten years. In the crippled prints the physical presence of body and photograph merge, celebrating human imperfection. The title references Tim Hecker’s album ‘Ravedeath,1972’.Published by Art Paper Editions20 x 26 cmSoftcover176 pages1st EditionOctober 2020EnglishISBN 978-9-4931465-2-5

Our Adventures In Frequencies Tee is inspired by countless hours spent digging through varying genres of records, both physically and of course, digitally, finding mind-bending experimental masterpieces that inspire us, beautiful avant-garde journeys through sound that creates a drive to further advance our knowledge into the never-ending library of music and subcultures linked to music. we took heavy influence from rave/dance flyers from 1991 - 1993 specifically, such as “Real Dream” presented by Perception in 1992 in the UK which featured Carl Cox & DJ Seduction, although well before our dancefloor days, we marvel at what once was and much like records, we love exploring past explorations into the electronic dance music scene and all the wonderful, mind-bending artwork that was created alongside it.Printed and designed in Melbourne on 100 percent cotton teesBlue Screen Print On White TeeFrequency - the rate per second of a vibration constituting a wave, either in a material (as in sound waves), or in an electromagnetic field (as in radio waves and light).

In 1994, the New York Times Magazine assigned me to ride along with cops from the Los Angeles Police Department, photographing them at work. This was just two years after the protests that erupted when four officers were acquitted on charges of beating Rodney King, and LAPD needed a public image makeover. So they gave me and the Times unprecedented access to the department, hoping we’d give readers a story about LAPD’s new “kinder, gentler cop.” I was embedded with officers from several divisions and branches, including some of the more notorious ones: the anti-gang unit “CRASH”, the Rampart Division, and the homicide unit. For several weeks, I rode day and night in the back of police cars, taking photos. Most of those photographs have never seen the light of day, until now. Given the potential revolution around policing in the US taking place right now, the time has come to share them with a wide audience. The photos are a reminder that the same problems we are reckoning with today—systemic racism, violence against community members, corruption—have been around for decades. These photographs tell a story about the power imbalance between police and the community, the constant tension between the stated goal of “protecting and serving” and the reality of police violence. From behind my camera, I saw how decades of profiling, racism, and brutality had led to deep distrust in many communities—distrust that the LAPD’s mild attempts at reform couldn’t even touch. The photos capture a particularly turbulent time for the LAPD, just after several very public corruption scandals in addition to the charges of police brutality brought to light by the video of Rodney King’s beating. I was no stranger to this type of assignment. At that time I had already published two books, Spanish Harlem and East Side Stories, which depicted life in impoverished neighborhoods. Covering LAPD gave me a chance to show how police operated in marginalized communities, and how those communities were affected by individual cops and the department as a whole
