Amin Kavousi
Written as a cinematic experience, 99 Ninety Nines is a three-act structured non-fiction narrative poetry collection that depicts a personal journey of enlightenment. Seven years, seven continents, seven heavens and seven hells in the making, but completely composed and edited over the past thirty-three months.
The text is synodic in wording, but precise and convincing, raw and real in quotations. With the audience in mind, we fly in, out, through and beyond spheres, layers and worlds, to achieve the impossible by reaching our Creator, becoming one with creation and human anew. In the rebirth, the main character, 'blue budgie' or 'the traveling heart' thrives after a powerful quest in truth-telling, to become 'a knower', and a whole person.
Specifications - Soft-Cover. Design Version. Poems: 199 / Pages: 399 / Writer: Amin Kavousi

A section of plates showcases every photograph he took while on the road, from small town high streets to plates of food, from hotel rooms to portraits of locals. This collection brings together the entire body of work for the first time, including iconic shots, outtakes and unpublished photographs.
Specifications - Limited to 3,300 slipcased copies, each one numbered and signed by the photographer.
Guido Mocafico
In 1999, pioneering fashion editor and stylist Babeth Djian founded Numéro, the now famous Paris magazine with an unmistakable aesthetic that boldly combines fashion, contemporary art, music and design. Guido Mocafico has photographed provocative still-lifes for Numéro since its first issue, and this comprehensive six-volume publication contains all this work to date.
Every month Babeth gives Mocafico carte blanche for the closing pages of Numéro, a rare privilege in today’s advertising-driven fashion magazines. In response he creates radical still-lifes (of objects including perfume bottles, shoes, watches and jewelry) that incorporate the genres of architecture, landscape and nude photography, and make comparable work in other magazines look like uninspired product shots. The experimental forum offered to Mocafico by Numéro facilitates his maverick, sometimes critical view of contemporary vanity, and has given birth to some of his larger influential series including “Medusa,” “Movement,” “Serpens” and “Stilleven.”
Specifications - 6 volumes: 1324 pages. Softcover in slipcase. Four-colour process. 23 x 30cm.

I GOT 99 PROBLEMS, BUT A BOOK AIN'T ONE
The first official street slang dictionary is celebrating its 10 year anniversary, in this ultra-limited edition pressing, only available at STORM.
The dictionary marked the beginning of a new era in the Danish rap scene, where the old guard of Danish rappers were being replaced by newcomers, representing a whole new sound and a new language, inspired by Arabic, Turkish, Kurdish, Spanish, French, Albanian and all the other languages spoken in and around the blocks of Denmark.
For the last 10 years, artists like Sivas, Gilli, Kesi, Benny Jamz and Branco, have been dominating the charts and have proven that what was once considered simply a fad, is here to stay for good. They have paved the way and opened the doors for newer artist like Lamin, ArtigeArdit and Icekiid, who have all become household names, dominating the radio airwaves and the charts.
To celebrate the culture of Danish "street-rap", the bestselling "GADE/DANSK Ordbog" has been pressed in an ultra-limited 10 year anniversary edition of 99 copies, only available here at STORM.
Tofu Collective
Situated in the westward path of what is known as Typhoon Alley, the coastlines of Taiwan are frequently plagued by hard-hitting hazards. While devastation has been left in the wake of the storm each time, the island has always managed to readjust and bounce back with vigour as changing winds has become embedded within its memory. Yet, to address a collective consciousness remains contested, unavoidably tied to the disruptions following cultural assimilation throughout history. As the island transitioned towards democratisation and global engagement, art became a way to restructure a cultural genealogy, functioning as a dual-wielded narrative that both sought to adapt to the flood of external influences, as well as define an artistic language that looked towards the essence of what it meant to be Taiwanese.
Emerging from reclusion in demand of comprehensive restructuring upon entering a globalised art circuit, structures to support the new paradigm for contemporary art steadily took shape, while experimental movements pushed the boundaries of their newfound freedom through wildly progressive expressions, that raged against lingering oppression and looked towards a decolonised and queer future. The maintenance of liberty to consistently push societal boundaries has positioned Taiwan as a leading democracy in the region, exemplified in 2019 when it became the first in Asia to legalise same-sex marriage. The hybrid identity of Taiwan is its unique quality, but it is the same complexity that also poses a string of challenges for the largely unrecognised nation-state and its meeting with the international art scene. The identity has remained a centripetal force that pulls artistic examination towards it, time and time again, and with each roundabout, the voices muffled by the storm grow louder. In the midst of the eye, a generation of trailblazing artists navigates the art scene that mirrors the dynamics and multifariousness of an island nation in flux, superseding cultural barriers, carving out interstice, and maintaining the continuous progression of identity.
Typhoon is a product of comprehensive research and forged friendships by Tofu Collective – compiled in collaboration with dmp editions and an esteemed board of advisors – airing an eclectic capture of the streams that flow, intersect, and diverge within the many layers of Taiwanese art circles, through diverse portrayals of both promising younger artists and heavyweight practitioners. From inside and outside perspectives, we move through the sheer depth and variety of identities, fluctuating between an abundance of dichotomies, between local and global, natural and artificial, body and mind, past and future. Planned as a double-release dubbed ME–WE, Typhoon is conceptualized as two parts of a whole negotiating between the layers of collective and personal identity in order to uncover some of the complexities and distinct voices of contemporary Taiwan. The ME issue explores artistic endeavors rooted in introspection shaped by personal narratives, whereas the WE issue widens the lens and encourages reflection upon a grander scheme of shared memory, cumulative experience and societal progress.
