He produces and publishes three magazines that, though they have small print runs, have a near-religious following: the six-year-old Fanzine 137 – a compendium of everything Venegas cares about, Electric Youth (EY!) Magateen – an oversized cornucopia of adolescent boyflesh started in 2008, and the high- ly lauded Candy – the first truly queer fashion magazine on the planet, which was launched last year. His all-encompassing, erudite view of the fashion universe is the foundation for Venegas’ next big project: the fashion academy he plans to start in 2011. It will be a place where people, as he says, “who are interested in fashion learn about certain key moments from history, film and pop culture.” To get a preview of the curriculum at Professor Venegas’ School of Fashion, Suleman Anaya paid Venegas a visit at his apartment in the Madrid neighborhood of Malasaña, a wonderful space that overflows with the collected objects of his boundless curiosity.

  • Manufacture of Wool Products
    9 Manufacture of wool products K RUSSELL, D McDOWELL, I RYDER AND C SMITH©THE WOOLMARK COMPANY 9.1 Introduction Opportunities for introducing variety into wool products are provided by the fact that wools of different origin vary considerably in terms of mean fibre diameter, distribution of diameter, fibre length, crimp and medulla- tion. Such extensive variations result from the fact that many different breeds have evolved over the years, either through natural selection or through the efforts of man. Different breeds have adapted to particular habitats, and the wools from each breed have their own characteristics and physical properties. In textile processing, wools of different types may be blended together or with other fibres to create special product features, but usually within a fairly narrow average diameter range. Figure 9.1 illustrates the typical usage of wools of different diameters in 11 broad product areas.The darker colour in each band indicates major usage and the lighter areas in the bands indi- cate some usage. Most apparel products are made by weaving or knitting, although carpets and felts may use other processing methods (see Chapter 10). Chapter 6 covers the processing of wool fibre into singles yarns. This chapter now out- lines the machinery used when processing from singles yarns into woven and knitted materials. The various processes are applicable to all fibres, but some are more suited to wool than others, and special conditions apper- taining to wool may sometimes be required to ensure production of a satisfactory wool product. 9.2 Twisting Yarn twisting or folding is a relatively expensive and non-productive operation but for weaving yarns it was, until relatively recently, the only way to produce a final yarn that could withstand the rigours of the weaving process and provide fabrics that exhibited good performance in wear.

    Shooting the Movement: Black Panther Party Photography and African American Protest Tr a di ti o n s T.N. P h u Abstract: Although the failure of the Black Panther Party has often been attributed to the violence which consumed it, the photographic record suggests otherwise. This paper argues that the movement in fact developed a striking and self-aware protest aesthetic. Moreover, this still influential self-referential visuality emphasized the spectacular forms of defiance, contributing, in doing so, to African American traditions of protest conventionally rooted in the oral tradition. A focus on Black Panther Party photography helps account for how the rhetorical violence which focused the BPP’s protest aesthetic became complexly indistinguishable from violent realization. Keywords: African American photography, American studies, cultural studies, visual culture, race Re´sume´ : Bien que l’e´chec du parti des Panthe`res Noires ait souvent e´te´ attribue´ a` la violence qui l’embrasait, les dossiers photographiques laissent penser le contraire. Selon le pre´sent article, le mouvement a en fait de´veloppe´ un caracte`re d’autoprotestation frappant en matie`re d’esthe´tique. En outre, ce phe´nome`ne de perception autore´fe´rentiel qui conserve toujours son influence a mis l’accent sur des formes spectaculaires de de´fi et a ainsi contribue´ aux traditionnelles protestations afro-ame´ricaines classiquement enracine´es dans la tradition orale. L’accent mis sur la photographie du parti des Panthe`res Noires permet de constater comment la rhe´torique violente sur laquelle s’est polarise´ ce parti est devenue complexe et impossible a` distinguer de la re´alisation violente.
