emerging and established artists, illustrators, designers and studios
from around the world to collaborate with us. Thanks again to everybody

We received our copy today of the newest
ava book from the highly recommended 'basics:' series. We've already
been featured twice in format
- the launch issue - a while ago and 'image' - the equally interesting
fourth book in this series - is now presenting a whopping 6 FL@33
projects! Soon in your favourite bookstore... 8)
October 1st, 2005
Lots of fresh updates here at flat33.com!
We added pictures of the brandnew stereohype
clothing range 2005-06 (including the
bzzzpeek.com
support
tees), a few snapshots of the stereohype
stand @ top drawer 05, previews of the
forthcoming 'hooked?'
monster t-shirts and an illustration
for victionary featuring a recent FL@33 wall painting/room decoration.
Last but not least we can finally show pictures
of the woyzeck campaign commissioned
by the young vic theatre, london. Woyzeck is a very exciting project
indeed as it involves a must-see theatre play (directed by gísli
örn gardarsson) to be performed at the barbican as part of this
month's bite:05 series 'young genius'. "Iceland's vesturport
use hair-raising, high spectacle, circus skills to electrifying effect."
Half-way through the project nick cave and warren ellis (a bad seed)
signed up and produced original music for this spectacle! We were
briefed to illustrate
the story of georg büchner's woyzeck with a twist of gísli...
But everything came together when we heard who would write the music
for this dark play as everybody involved was thinking nick
cave/kylie 'where the wild roses grow'
anyway... 8)

Just spotted our first FL@33
book review in this month's grafik magazine.
(...) "..., this is a perfectly formed volume showcasing the
intriguing work of London-based Franco-Austrian duo Agathe and Tomi,
aka FL@33. Its diminutive size means that the emphasis is on imagery
rather than text, so copy is pretty much restricted to the captions
and a preface by Liz Brown. It doesn't really matter too much, though,
as the work is consistently engaging and presented in a fresh and
appealing way. It's a great snapshot of what they've achieved so far
and bodes well for FL@33's future." (...).
A big THANK YOU to everybody @ grafik tower! 8)
July 4th, 2005
We have recently been commissioned by the young vic theatre company
to create a visual

play, directed by gísli örn gardarsson, will be performed

of the 'young genius' season. The visual is currently being used for
the barbican brochure and online promotion. A poster and postcards
will soon be added. We'll post previews at flat33.com once everything
is ready.

Our amusing yet educational online project bzzzpeek.com
is currently enjoying a new wave of popularity after the
new york times (free registration required)
featured a 1/4 page article on our project two days ago. Wired.com
and many other websites quickly added the link and we even had to
pop into the bbc bush house a couple of times to record radio interviews.
Our server is smoking as the daily average of unique visitors to bzzzpeek.com
is currently up to approx. 10.000 and rising (up from approx. 2.000).
Hopefully we will receive plenty of sound submissions to add all the
missing languages to this evolving collection. Links to radio streams
will soon be posted at flat33.com. Thanks so much for all the encouraging
emails we are receiving!
June 2nd, 2005
