London-based indie rock outfit The Vaccines unveil their latest video for “Wetsuit” in conjunction with browsing and managing photos app Instagram. Fans around the globe were invited to submit their images capturing their summer of music. Director Poppy De Villeneuve selected the best ones and weaved them together in order to tell the story of a festival day. The band’s lead singer Justin Young said:
‘We always talk about breaking down the barriers between the band and the fans. We like sharing music with them, meeting them, interacting with them, as most bands do. So this felt like the ultimate interaction. Instagram was suggested to give photos taken on people’s phone a nice warm feel. It’s great to be able to make the fans part of our art.’

For the third edition of Real Scenes, RA and Bench go to one of the most special places for electronic music in the world: Berlin. When the Berlin Wall came down in 1989, techno became the underground soundtrack to the reunion between East and West. In recent years, it’s become an international destination for ravers—a cheap place to party with clubs that are renowned throughout the world.
Techno has become a business in the meantime. Yet Berlin still maintains a credibility that other cities lack. To understand why, RA and Bench went to the German capital eager to find out about its unique history and the reasons behind its continued relevance.
Remember the 8-track? How about a rotary telephone? As life and technology move on, so many of these parts of our history become obsolete. It’s with that in mind that German digital agency Jung von Matt/Next brings us the Museum of Obsolete Objects.
