Caroline Polachek of surreal pop duo Chairlift visited the agency at 111 Fifth Avenue to answer a series of questions ranging from the pronunciation of the song title "Amanaemonesia" to the Dior appointment of Raf Simons. Together with bandmate Patrick Wimberly Caroline released Chairlift's second album Something (Columbia) in late January and since has been active in its promotion. Live alternate versions of "Sidewalk Safari" and "Met Before" have been recorded and released since last autumn, thereby giving the songs an added layer of richness that is otherwise beyond the industry-wide practice of the remix. Chairlift are already setting their sights on their next album, which Caroline promises will be more "alien sounding" with lyrics that are more "sexually confrontational" than their previous records. Caroline wears a Mandy Coon top, vintage trousers, VPL boots, and a necklace by Lady Grey.

Ford Models Secures Exclusive Rights to Animated GIF Printing Technology for Its Comp Cards

Sat, 31 Mar 2012 00:00:00 GMT

IMMEDIATE RELEASE Ford Models is proud to announce its exclusive rights to an all new, highly advanced nanotechnological microarray printing process with sub-micron positional accuracy that will realize the heretofore impossible feat of printing a fully animated Graphics Interchange Format (GIF) image to card stock paper. The GIF89a spec, which allows for the continuous (looping, looping, looping...) sequential display of 256 colors with resolution 3 x 8bits/primary, has long been the sole dominion of the interweb browser dating back to Netscape Navigator 2.0...that is, until now. A new proprietary printing technology has been developed in secrecy that looses the GIF89a spec from cyberspace onto the printed page or in the case of Ford Models, its world renown model comp cards. The above exclusive, never-before-seen video shot at the Ford Models global headquarters at 111 Fifth Avenue in Manhattan demonstrates the technology in action on the front of model comp card of Francisco Lachowski (Ford Men). Given the explosive ("viral") growth of animated GIFs on CompuServe, GeoCities, and Tumblr, the exclusive acquisition of technology rights was an absolute must for Ford Models. Animated GIF composite cards are poised to put Ford Models in the pole position for most IRL reblogs, likes, and retweets. Please direct all press inquires to twitter.com www.fordmodelsfashion.com
