Top Deejay headphones
First impressions.
Many years ago, I worked for my parents who own a video production company. Because it is a family business, you inevitably end up wearing many hats and being the czar of many different jobs. I mainly managed projects and worked as a video editor. On production, there were times that I was called on to work as an audio tech and was made to wear headphones on long production days. In those days, having a really good set of headphones that picked up every nuance of sound was essential to making sure the client got what they needed.

In those days, having a really good set of headphones that picked up every nuance of sound was essential to making sure the client got what they needed.
Naturally, my first impression of these headphones is based off of the look of them. They have a classic over-the-ear style that is highlighted by a blue LED light that indicates the power for the noise canceling. The padding on the ear pieces seems adequate for extended usage periods.
They are wired headphones, but the 3.5mm stereo mini-plug cable is detachable. Something else I noticed right of the bat was the very nice carrying case that comes with them. It has a hard plastic exterior with a soft cloth interior that helps to protect the surface of the headphones from scratches. I never truly appreciated cases for headphones until I started carrying them from place-to-place. Now I can’t imagine not having a case.
It’s safe to say that because of my unique professional experiences, I’ve tested out a lot of headphones.
John Williams
A perfect fit.
Once I gave the headphones a thorough once-over exam, I tried them on. As I mentioned, they have a classic over-the-ear style and just looking at them, the padding on the ear pieces seem adequate and the peak of the headband seemed to be a bit lacking, but you don’t really know comfort unless you try on the product. So, I slipped the headphones on and found them to be exquisitely comfortable. In order to test how voices sounded, and the overall art of sound mixing, I pulled up Netflix on my iPad Air 2 and watched a few minutes of a movie to hear all the nuances of the film. None of them were lost. In fact, I ended up hearing sounds that I hadn’t heard before. Echoes…birds chirping…wind blowing through trees…breathing of the characters…it was very impressive what the headphones ended up bringing out for me.
Quality.
Now that I had the headphones on my head, I was finally ready to plug and play some music. I plugged the provided cable into the jack on the headphones and then the one on my iPhone 6. Then I called up Pandora. I tend to have a very eclectic music purview and have many stations set up for different moods. From John Williams to Fallout Boy, the sound quality of these headphones was remarkable. There is an amazing depth of sound and incredible highs and lows that make listening to music a truly breathtaking experience.

Pornydays (review)
This weekend the Pornydays Film Kunst Festival took part in Zurich for the third time. Bê and I were there celebrating the world premiere of Jasko Trying Hard. The film was part of the incredibly well curated and well attended (200ish people) opening night and ran right between bigger productions financed from Canal+ "The America of Womankind" and a film by Shine Louis Houston (Bê is a big fan) who had also an extra programme at the festival. The Q&A went really well and the people seemed to have had a lot of fun with our detailed production report.
Premiere at the Porny Days Filmfestival
Super exited to announce that the Porny Days Filmfestival in Zurich will host the world premiere of "Jasko Trying Hard" (Direction: Bê & René de Sans, starring Jasko Fide). We are part of the opening night!
Jasko Trying Hard is a short deconstruction of one of pornography’s most driving factors: the orgasm. Is a film still pornographic if you are denied its typical visuals? And is it still a turn-on if there is no orgasm?

Exhibition at the Pornfilmfestival 2015 (review)
This night my exhibition in the moviemento cinema at the 10th Pornfilmfestival Berlin ends. Thanks to all who participated and who gave me good vibes and feedback on my photos. All of my 100 businesscards got taken, so hopefully some of you will remember me when you think about modelling for photos or if you think about collaborations for future projects. Like I did with David Bloom for his shortfilm Sonata which had its fulminant and sold-out premiere at the festival.
I made some new contacts and met really interesting people. Hopefully with some of them I will carry on doing amazing art together.
Thanks also for all the great people, models, dancers and artists with whom I had the opportunity to work so far. Like Caritia Abell, Bishop Black, Jasko, Bê, David Bloom, Anna Natt, Coco Katsura, Valentin Tszin, Momoyo Morioka and Chia-Chia Hsu.
You all took part in helping me to start a new chapter in my life this year – creating the art I want to make and expressing some unseen images of a world beyond the ordinary.
