Nalden meets Niels ‘Shoe’ Meulman is actually the first video in a series of upcoming ‘Nalden Episodes’ in which Nalden sits down with different inspiring people. No dodgy interviews, just honest conversations, small talk or revealing escapades.

In this first video Nalden sits down and talks with the internationally known artist, graphic designer and art director Niels ‘Shoe’ Meulman. Shoe revolutionized the art of writing with Calligraffiti, an art form that fuses calligraphy and graffiti. He launched this movement in 2007 with a successful solo exhibition in Amsterdam. Since then, his Calligraffiti pieces (signed NSM) can be seen in various international exhibitions.

February 7 to 10 2010… ISPO time.

We went to Munich to deliver two kick ass videowalls we created with Edwin. While we were there we could also check out what the Bataleon stand looked like with the 2010 Bataleon team video we did.

On Sunday we were invited to come to The Farm where twenty international riders came together for an invitational Best Trick session at a farm close to Munich, Germany. Check out the movie (not ours ;) here

Amazing tricks went down during the heated session held in a cash-for-tricks mode. For a total purse of €10.000, invited riders including Jed Anderson, Nick Visconti, Louis-Felix Paradis & Marc Swoboda, among others, brought out their best tricks.

Nike 6.0 supported the locals, including teamrider Basti Rittig, in setting up a stunning jib park, made out of natural materials that served as the location for this stunning event.

Job de Wit and Tom Trago were invited to watch some music videos at VPRO’s Afzien

Circus work displayed over in London. Check it out if you’re in town. Thanks Suzanne!

“Chips With Everything” is an exhibition of works by three innovative Dutch collectives/studios working across the disciplines of digital design, animation, multimedia direction, art direction and art.

Baked Beans, Circus Family and Minivegas are three contemporary Dutch studios based in Amsterdam.

Their work is seen internationally within the commercial sphere, for example on television or as part of brand campaigns, not only in the Netherlands but also in countries around the world where they have won commissions. But, as can be seen from some of the included works, they occasionally cross the floor, veering into the realms of media art and visual art, something that perhaps has a longer tradition within the Netherlands than in the UK.
