The Rise of The Unbreakable Watch Worn By Kid Cudi, Murakami and The Entire Universe || BTH: G-Shock

G-SHOCK is a hot topic on various online forums dedicated to watch collecting. For many, the brand conjures nostalgic memories, as recent converts dabbled with purchasing their first affordable, quality watch intended for everyday wear.

The watch of the working class, G-SHOCK timepieces are built with strength and longevity in mind. However rugged, unbreakable and tough, the Japanese label refrains from treating aesthetics as an afterthought. G-SHOCK’s pioneering leaps into glass technology, metalwork and incremental improvements with its proprietary shock-resistant build have solidified the brand’s prestige as a go-to durable, no-hassle watch that stands the test of time.

In the latest episode of Behind the HYPE, Hypebeast celebrates the people’s watchmaker and unpacks influential subcultures the label has graced in fashion and cinema and the many celebrity wrists that have donned the iconic, chunky silhouette on the silver screen and beyond.

Frida Kahlo's 'The Two Fridas' || Great Art Explained

Frida Kahlo is the most famous female artist in history.

She deviated from the traditional portrayal of female beauty in art, and instead chose to paint raw and honest experiences.

A near fatal bus accident at 18 left Frida crippled and in chronic pain her whole life, but she managed to make a virtue out of adversity, and astonishing original art out of her pain.

She was a Mexican, female artist who was disabled, in a male-dominated environment in post-revolutionary Mexico.

A feminist icon who broke all social conventions, and produced some of the most haunting and visionary images of the 20th century.

Why This Plant Could Save the World || Short Film

In this Our Changing Climate climate change short film, we look at how hemp could save the world from climate change.

Obviously, there’s no one solution to climate change, but hemp and hemp cultivation could unlock a lot of alternatives to industries that currently emit tons of CO2 every year.

Hemp is not only beneficial for the soil, but it also sequesters a substantial amount of carbon dioxide.

Also, hemp is one of the fastest-growing crops.

Hemp has over 25,000 uses which means, if grown right, hemp could replace everything from cotton to concrete to plastic and sequester millions of tons of carbon in the process.

Hemp is truly a miracle crop and should be seen as a plant that’s sustainable and a viable solution to countless problems we now face in the climate crisis.

TAOISM || Be Like Water

Many people are hijacked by the rigidity of their minds. Thinking in categories and fixed ideas can be a great crutch for survival, as it creates clarity in a chaotic universe. But thinking too rigidly also has its negative consequences. Seeing the world in categories and separate boxes limits our perception, so we become stuck in our ideas of how things are, or supposed to be.

As the universe is ever-changing, and most things, if not everything, is more complex than our minds can comprehend, a more fruitful approach to life, would be one that is flexible, tangible, that enables us to flow along. You know... a bit like water.

The ancient Chinese philosopher Lao Tzu (Taoism) celebrates flexibility in his timeless work named the Tao Te Ching, in which he opposes the rigid life stance that some people choose to take. In contrast to what many think, weakness, and softness, or more specifically, the ability and willingness to yield, can actually be a great strength, according to Taoist philosophy.

Hence, Lao Tzu states that the supreme good is like water. This short film explores the benefits of being a bit less rigid and a bit more like water.

"Be like water" - Bruce Lee

LANZAROTE || THE WONDER

Raw. Mineral. Bewitchingly.

It's this side that we wanted to explore. 

The soul of its landscapes, of this volcanic lands, between dark rock, stormy ocean and wonderful nature.

Why Real Champagne Is So Expensive || So Expensive

Champagne is only true champagne if it's made in the Champagne region of northern France.

All other sparkling wines made outside of this region, even those from neighboring parts of France, must be labeled differently.

Champagne often costs double the price of other sparkling wines, such as prosecco or cava.

A decent-quality bottle of it can cost you anywhere from $50 to $300, and vintage bottles often sell for thousands.
