Sure, we here at JUICE take a lot of pride in our cover designs (tirelessly crafted with tender loving care month after month by our resident vector vigilante Davis Kam), but we admit that some other mags have neat fronts too. The American Society of Magazine Editors (ASME) compiled 40 of the best covers of […]

30GB of storage! Wireless connectivity! Download songs straight into your digital player! Immediate area networking and song sharing! And the chance to finally walk up to an Apple-using friend and go “Hah!” The Microsoft Zunes are almost here!

So here we are again - the year’s worst traffic jams, the worst restaurant reservation season, the most blindingly blatant advertising campaigns, the most garish roadside decorations. Ramadhan in KL is like Christmas shopping season, first day of school, and annual bonus week all rolled into one and loaded full of cocaine. It never fails […]

Another image rediscovered. Kent kindly sent 10 clubbers, two journos and a rep from GCI to Tokyo Japan for a weekend’s worth of malarkey and the unanimous consensus was to make a pilgrimage to Evisu while there. The store which happens NOT to be smack in the middle of Tokyo, also kind of looks like a Ralph […]

If you can’t afford the threads there’s always Bape Cafe.

It’s the weekend. The deadlines are upon us but the mind wanders to other things, gets sidetracked by menial tasks. Like looking for photos.

I have to say I am stoked to watch The Science of Sleep. The latest feature length from former music vid director Michel Gondry, the bloke that brought us possibly the most romantic movie of this generation, Eternal Suncshine Of The Spotless Mind, it also stars Gael Garcia Bernal (Y Tu Mama Tambien, Amores Perros, […]

I’ve got a bad habit. It’s not that I don’t remember people’s name. Sometimes I do. But lately I’ve noticed that after an introduction I start my conversations with “What do you do?” I guess it’s not as bad as “and you’re whose daughter/son?” or “Excuse me, do you know where the exit is as […]

It’s a Hello Kitty exhaust pipe. What else can i say?

Right about now, the lomocam freaks are cradling their Holgas in awe-stricken denial. This digital camera right here just ripped the quirky cool throne from all those 9-frames-at-a-time plastic playthings. The Seitz 6×17 Digital does’t just look weird, get this: it takes panoramic photos measuring 6cm x 17cm (hence its name, duh) in staggering 160 […]
