The old-fashioned way - I love the look, the feel, the clicks and rattle of this 80’s benchmark camera.

Self-Portrait - One of my first self-portraits I did for school. Despite the lens deviation, I am still quite pleased with the result. I love the setting and the suit :) ©MRTN.
The Black Box Revelation is two Belgian teenagers, Jan Paternoster on guitar and Dries van Dijck on drums, whose debut album, “Set Your Head on Fire” (Beverly Martel/T for Tunes), stomps its way toward garage-rock and proto-punk, with Mr. Paternoster yowling like Iggy Pop or Mick Jagger and calling for love. Every so often they strip the music down to something slow and bluesy. But the Black Box Revelation isn’t purely retro. They are just as happy with a drum-machine beat and a heap of overdubbed percussion, as long as the music makes its happy, trashy crash. – February 24, 2008, The New York Times
In 2011 Jan and Dries went back to Hollywood to record their third album ‘My Perception’ which was released in October 2011. They stood an excellent chance as supporting act of Jane’s Addiction and they will soon perform live in David Letterman’s The Late Show on CBS. ‘Madhouse’, the first track of their new album will be featured in the fifth season of Californication.
Keep your eyes (and ears) out for these rockers!
Chasing Dreams -The wings on both my ankles stand for ‘chasing dreams’. After all, most achievements in life start with a dream. It reminds me to keep on moving forward. These wings are also a trademark of the Roman god Mercury. Like his Greek counterpart Hermes, Mercury was a messenger of the gods and a god of trade, abundance and commercial success. He was also leading newly-deceased souls to the afterlife and carried Morpheus’ dreams to sleeping humans.
Brugse Zot - Who can resist this little fool? Launched in 2005, Brugse Zot (Bruges Fool) is quite a newcomer and the only beer that is brewed and lagered in the heart of Brugge (Bruges), the fierce medieval town in Flanders, a.k.a. the Venice of the North and one of the most beautiful cities in Western Europe. Brugse Zot Blond is one of the lighter pale golden ales with an alcohol content of 6% and an underlying faint malty sweetness. The beer finishes with a short, fruity taste that somewhat sticks to the palate. Great taste, splendid design! Not surprisingly, a year after it was launched it was already awarded the Golden Medal in the “Belgian- & French Style Ale” category at the World Beer Cup in Seattle, US. The beer did this result over in the next edition of this bi-yearly event. Brugse Zot is a product of De Halve Maan - a member of the registered society Belgian Family Brewers. Visit their website to discover the story behind the Bruges fools!
