DIS Magazine http://dismagazine.com DIS is a multimedia art magazine. DIS is a dissection of fashion and commerce which seeks to dissolve conventions, distort realities, disturb ideologies, dismember the establishment, and disrupt the dismal dissemination of fashion discourse that's been distinctly distributed in order to display the disenfranchised as disposable. All is open to discussion. There is no final word.

Check out the latest song and video by San Francisco corporate-casual pop icon Myles Cooper, entitled “Lord Love Music”! The video, directed by DIS contributors Party Effects, takes office politics to an urban spelunking performance space, the creepiest possible echo chamber for the song’s titular refrain. Watch it now, exclusively on DIS:

Known for his magnetic stare and chiseled jaw, Barney exudes energy for the camera in a slew of high street catalog pictorials and energetic sportswear campaigns for J. Crew, Barney’s, Le Coq Sportif, and more! Find young Matthew at the Click agency, circa 1986.

The Congo (formerly Zaire), 2008 (?)

Today’s entry is about the arranged marriage of disparate styles and the intense randomness that springs forth from such unimagined couplings.

Koffi Olomide’s songs are a cheesy Congolese staple. In fact, you don’t need to see more than 60 seconds of this video to know that nothing about him stands out, except for his genius styling choices: think of early-’90s TLC videos, all of the shitty fur and leather stores on Orchard above Delancy, Morpheus from The Matrix trilogy, and see what else springs to mind.

Random enough for you? This triple-combo was clearly overlooked and needed to become synchronized via some thoroughly post-modern choreography. Throw in a giant hall brimming with chandeliers and you have yourself a major breakthrough in styling and art direction. Koffi has even added the words “Coco Chanel” in the very beginning of the song in order to take us there. I could write an essay on this video but I’ll stop right here.
