amp

This amp here was given to me by my friend Luc Levy, my partner in Cafe Gitane at the Jane Hotel. It’s a vintage Macintosh. I mean, Luc is just the most amazing person. This amp was in the original Gitane, so it’s a present Luc gave me a few weeks ago. Luc and I have this relationship where we give each other really amazing gifts. So when I moved to New York, he gave me an amazing vintage globe and this is the latest gift he gave me. Have you used it yet? Does it work? Yeah! It’s amazing [plugs in]. It has this really heavy dial. It’s from the 60s. It’s really, really insane. So I’m looking for old vintage speakers to go with it... This is your car? [Pointing to photograph] Yeah. It’s an old 1975 Ferrari. Oh man! I know. It’s crazy. It’s less fancy than it sounds. I just bought it from a friend of mine, one of the designers at Apple. They all have really really crazy cars. This was his baby Ferrari. I don’t know anything about cars, but I just fell in love with it, the vintage and the color. It doesn’t look like a Ferrari because it was designed by Bertone. So it’s really square and it looks like this crazy Italian UFO. It’s a cool photo. Yeah, my soon-to-be sister-in-law [Lara] took it. She’s an amazing photographer... She also did this Monica Vitti portrait. I’m obsessed with Monica Vitti. Lara is an an amazing illustrator, and jewelry designer. She’s multi-talented.
