Albert Einstein was such a genius, even he didn’t know how clever he was! When he talked about ‘time being relative’ he was thinking about really big things like massive celestial bodies bending the spacetime fabric.

At the time of writing we’re in election week and the magazine isn’t coming out till long after the dust has settled, making me the most harmless person to write an opinion piece about New Zealand politics.

It’s not how big your super-yacht is, it’s how you use it. If you’re going to go anywhere in the world to see floating palaces it would have to be Monaco. I’d say any major center in New Zealand with all the flooding we’ve been having recently but we don’t have any palaces despite what […]
Logitech today announced their brand new bluetooth speaker, the Ultimate Ears EPICBOOM.

We’re constantly being sold the dream of flying cars, and usually when we hear “flying car” it’s then followed by a picture of something that looks either like a car jet that definitely couldn’t find parking in town, or a VTOL, which would face similar issues parking wise. Flying cars have been a dream dating […]
The Gucci horsebit loafer is one of those fashion items that is perennially old school and new school all at the same time. You can just as easily imagine Hueh Hefner swaggering around in them in the 60s as much as you could Chris Pine our Cover man this issue. Way back in 1953 […]
An icon on the track, Fernando Alonso is about to become an icon on the red carpet as well as he’s officially partnered up with BOSS, who’s going to be suiting him up at all major events. Kind of the ultimate wingman in a way. BOSS was already the Official Fashion Partner of the Aston […]

What has it meant for you to portray the lead character of J. Robert Oppenheimer in Christopher Nolan’s new movie, surrounded by such an extraordinary cast? It’s a dream, really.

Imagine for a moment, the earliest of prehistoric times, when our ancestors sat around the glow of a campfire and stared up at the mesmerising dance of stars in the night sky.

“If something is important enough, or you believe something is important enough, even if you are scared, you will keep going.” – Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, Motors and SpaceX “As a founder, lay all the possible scenarios – from best to worst – in front of you, so you don’t get surprised when something […]
Stay Sober with Beer Chilling with friends recently and being a newish dad who doesn’t particularly enjoy the idea of being any kind of hammered has left me in an odd spot with beverage choices.

Starfield Xbox Series X and Series S, PC Somehow this feels like the first big expansive Bethesda RPG worth talking about since Skyrim in 2011. The world has over a thousand planets to explore, but only 10% of them will have any forms of life in them, and the world will contain the largest city […]
One could be forgiven for not realising New Zealand had an election coming up. At the time of writing we’re about 2 months out and there’s been hardly a peep about it. Here in New Zealand politics has taken its cues from its native wildlife. It’s shy and likes to stay out of sight for […]

It’s not every day a Fashion House recognises architects as auteurs, but if you can design a towering skyscraper you can design a bag, right? In the case of Kengo Kuma it appears to be true, as he’s left his mark all over the Fendi Spring Summer 24 collection. His materials of choice was […]
Earlier this year, NZ’s very own Allbirds announced that they had cracked the code on the world’s first net zero carbon shoe, aptly dubbed the M0.0NSHOT (hence the 0.0 in the name!)

Later this year in October parts of the late Roger Moore’s private bond collection will be going under the hammer. As the fourth actor to play Bond, Moore brought the spy to life in Live and Let Die (1973), The Spy Who Loved Me (1977), For Your Eyes Only (1981), Octopussy (1983), and A View […]
Brands are constantly attaching themselves to events, activities, and people in an attempt to have some of that credibility rub off on them. Brand alignment, have you ever heard anything so soulless?

I stay credulous when it comes to bold claims made by brand new startups. They’re there to drum up funding, and the best way to do that is to find themselves in headlines like this one. With that said Swiss startup Destinus has been hitting some milestones hard and fast and it’s gotten me pondering […]

There have been very few times I have been homicidally angry in my life – in fact I can count them on the fingers of one hand: The first time was when Trevor Chappell bowled underarm to Brian McKechnie at the MCG in 1981… Grr. STILL rarked about that! The second was when Warner Brothers […]
When this story was dropped in my lap I initially couldn’t find any real problems with Artificial Insemination apart from perhaps some sort of eugenics program. I still managed to come up with 5000 words on the subject. After my editor saw it and informed me he meant the other AI the job got a […]

Wehead When you’re in your bunker it’s nice to know that your loved ones will be able to remotely animate a head cobbled together out of four android phones.

When I told my friends that I was trialling the over-ear Logitech G Pro X 2 Lightspeed Gaming Headset I got nods of approval all round, till they found out I had the white pair. Apparently when it comes to headphones my friends will haze me if I get anything other than the black ones. […]

Time flies! It seems like just yesterday the Auckland exhibition of the world’s greatest pieces of photojournalism and documentary photography was being gracing our shores.

Back when I was a kid the idea of robots helping around the house was limited to the Jetsons. It was a pipe dream of the future. At around this same time a small startup called ECOVACS ROBOTICS was getting off the ground (or getting ON the ground should I say) with their very […]
You’ve got the shakers, you’ve got the muddlers, you have the measuring spoons and all that jazz. You’re just about at the peak of your cocktail and hosting game.

There are sketchy landings and then there’s this. 56 stories up on the Burj Al Arab Jumeirah in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, is a helipad. I repeat, a helipad.

Getting up to MSCHF MSCHF is back at it again with its shoes that are more Instagram curiosity than actual shoe. Known as BWD Shoes, this weird looking thing is actually a pair of slides.

Monti Castello – Made in Italy The Italians use the French term ‘pochette’ to differentiate them from the ‘fazzoletto’.

From parrots to paisley, terrazzo to […]

This is an intervention, we need to talk about your frame rates. The film industry has been stuck on 24 frames per second since 1930. As movies have started to thrash around more, this low frame rate is starting to show its age. Action can become an indecipherable smudge over the screen. If you’ve seen […]
Kiwis need no reminder about how dangerously powerful large bodies of water can be at the moment, but it’s nice seeing someone conquering the surf in a place where the surf is supposed to be, at a beach, and not inside our homes. Riding this particular wave is Izzi Gomez at Cortes Bank, California, United […]
Find two very tall objects extremely far apart and Jaan Roose has probably slacklined between the two. This particular stunt was pulled off in Bozzhyra, Kazakhstan, just 160km from the Caspian Sea.
