Zentai is a Japanese term for skin-tight suits worn to cover the whole body. Thought to be either a contraction of zenshin taitsu, "full-body tights," or derive directly from the term for "full body," Zentai is a lifestyle choice for people interested in transforming from their natural identity into a colorful, faceless form.

Vice Versus - Cavemen
The New York tribe of Paleo dieters was founded in July of 2009, and has since grown to more than 300 members. The group believes in living according to ancient human principles. This means they avoid any food or drink created after the advent of agriculture. They prefer scaling boulders and running barefoot for exercise instead of running on a treadmill in some state-of-the-art gym, they seek out the sun to ensure they get plenty of vitamin D and, yes, they eat a lot of meat. The group's structure mimics the lifestyle they've chosen. Though John may be the "tribal chieftain", any member of the group may take the lead at any time to guide it to the next meat-centric barbecue, icy swim in the ocean, or a simple caveman cooking class. Members have found that many are like-minded politically, favoring an anarchist and libertarian view of the world.

Beyond the Clouds
The first documentary by double BAFTA winning director Lee Phillips, Beyond the Clouds received the Silver Spire at the San Francisco Film Festival for Short Documentary. A death-defying cross between sky-diving and surfing, sky-surfing is as extreme a sport as you will ever witness. Free-falling from over 12,000 feet at speeds of up to 140mph whilst performing incredible gymnastic manoeuvres, Beyond the Clouds not only gives us an extraordinary glimpse at the sport, but delves deep into the psyche of why someone may choose to risk their life for their hobby.
