Weekend Inspiration

09 September 2009

Closer Now
Whether it's the hypnotic trance or soaring vocals, not a body stands still when New Yorker DJs Filo and Peri take control of the dance floor. This duo have skyrocketed to the top of the US Billboard charts and entered the UK Top 40, cementing their status in the global dance scene and winning them an international army of fans.
When: Saturday, $15 before 11pm, $28 after 11pm
Where: Zirca, Block 3C The Cannery, Clarke Quay.

Short Report
The 5th Singapore Short Film Festival, Singapore's only international short film festival, returns this weekend. Featuring over 120 short films check out some whimsical Italian shorts, gritty US documentaries, or a beautifully produced French fantasy. The Midnight Cinema programme is a definite highlight.
When: Sunday - 21 September
Where: The Substation, 45 Armenian Street.

Fair Fine
Check out the new FairPrice Antiques store, opening today. With opening specials and a new range of items, we are sure there will be some fab finds.
When: Store opening tonight 7-10pm. Store open Wed-Sun 12-5pm.
Where: FairPrice Antiques, 315 Outram Road, 01-10, Tan Boon Liat Building

Casual Bites
District 10 is a new understated, casual chic bistro that already has a following. Tucked away in a quiet nook not far from Newton Circus, this joint has a great indoor and outdoor ambience. We love the use of the large pong pong tree as a key feature in the outdoor dining area.

Geek Out
Are you a tech junkie? Or do you NEED a new laptop, mobile phone or HDTV? If so, hot-foot it to Comex this weekend. This is the biggest, best, tech show with over 800 exhibitors. Expect the latest and greatest gadgets from next-generation digital televisions, coolest mobile phones, ultra-slim mobile PCs, digital imaging and more.

Where: Comex, Suntec Singapore, Levels 1, 2, 3, 4 & 6

Mind Time

With an excellent collection of travel fiction and biographies and books on natural science and history, it also has a small photo exhibition on this weekend - "Places To Look For Your Mind" by Akiko Koga. This goofy exhibition is about a bittersweet longing for places, persons and things.
