embroidered hangings

TAKE A LOOK AT THESE FAB NEW HANGINGS... just arrived

Shisha or mirror-work, is a type of embroidery which attaches small pieces of mirrors and reflective metal to fabric. The term "shisha" means glass in Persian from where the word transferred to Urdu/Hindi and other related languages. Shisha embroidery was brought to India by the Moghuls and is now most common in parts of Gujarat and Rajasthan in India. This type of embroidery lends a sparkling appearance to the brightly-colored clothes worn in the region, it looks beautiful as a hanging...150x100cm

African Prints in Street wear.

African prints are back... Well they never left anyway but the is a strong resurgence of the prints. We at thesis have taken note of this and we are about to put people up on the prints in a good way. What we love about the prints is the rich colour and patterns that makes it easy to play around with for styling and getting a good combo.

Thesis is a street wear brand and African prints will be thick this spring/summer on the streets. Make sure that you counted in.

Feiyue fakes spotted in Cape Town

So you guys know that Thesis is the only Feiyue sneaker outlet in Soweto and we don't want to hear that a person has bought them sneakers at some unauthorized dealer outside JHB. (we know all the dealers). So this manga manga shop in Cape Town has been selling fake Feiyue sneakers. How do you do that? Poppa trunks must be exposed!!! Shame on them. if you bought a pair there, they fake.

This is the official word from we-are-awesome.com

Open Access Week Competition

The week of Monday 18th - Sunday 24th October has been allocated as Open Access Week across the globe. Now in its 4th year, this dedicated week aims to promote 'Open Access as a new norm in scholarship and research'.

To mark the occasion we at the WRN are running a competition for partners with an Open Access theme. We are looking for your best repository success story. Whether it's a story of success convincing an academic researcher to interact with the repository, or a tale of success regarding a deposited item that ended up proving the wide-reaching audience of the repository.

Entries can be as long or as short as you want and we are looking to put the best stories together in a blog post and perhaps even in a new advocacy learning object!

The competition is open from now until the Friday before Open Access Week (15th October). There will be a prize available for the winning entry.

Good luck!

J&B Q and A with DJ Kenzhero

If you don't know by now, then you running late on this. The J&B "start a party" awards are happening on the 16th at Turbine Hall. They have enlisted the DJ skills of Culoe De Song and DJ Kenzhero. In his short preparation for this gig, DJ Kenzhero managed to answer these questions and give us a link to his latest mixtape. Download here

Who is Kenzhero?

Kenzhero is a personality embodied by a dj from South Africa Joburg and he has been spining disc’s for the last Ten years.

What was your impression of the Thesis Social Jam Session?

Very Organized also different from the other sessions that happen in Soweto … worth seeing ….

Away from DJ’ing what else do you do?

Organize events of own and other commissioned events … I make music as in produce for artist. Ive done TV scores …I Run the Venue called OST with my business partner Osmic …etc
Are you into corporate events/social events?
My DJ Partner DJ Bob noticed I get edgy when ever we did corporate or weddings which may be true cause other gigs no matter how big other gig I do are I am never edgy or nervous but generally the corporate gigs turn to be the easiest. Some times they are demanding especially from the client point of view they, can be abusive at times especially if the brief never roll out the same as planned …

What’s the one song that people should expect at the J&B start a party awards?

Hmm ill leave that for the night as a surprise cause I never super plan for events I just feed of the crowd

What are your ingredients for starting a party?

Start slowly I never like coming after high energy dj’s I like to start the party and finish it off …

J & B Start a partyyyy ticket give away!

Cape Town, 2 September 2010: On the 16^th September J&B will be hosting the first ever Start A Party Awards in Jo’burg as the finale to a series of online challenges set by the brand. Promising to be everything a normal awards night is not (they’re usually pretty dull), J&B will be presenting its own take on what an awards show should be. DJs Culoe De Song and Kenzhero will be ripping it up on the night alongside some mystery guests in a transformed Turbine Hall.

In total, J&B issued seven challenges for people to take part in all of which involved the simple entry mechanic of uploading crazy photos on the web for the community there to comment and vote on.

Thousands of people submitted photos of themselves “photo-bombing”, “jump-shotting” and “shaky-facing” their way into instant internet fame. From these thousands, five finalists in each category have been chosen to attend the awards along with hundreds of party starters from the entrants.
