This month, we’re looking at Asian tradition beyond the tangible — foodways, festivals, languages, gestures, crafts, and digital folklore. We’ll be exploring how memory becomes a living medium in the 21st century.

Tattooer and painter JAX (@jax_tattooer) sees his city the way he approaches his art, raw, unfiltered, and shaped by punk rock and vintage movies. His Shanghai isn’t found in the places where authenticity lives.
It’s dive bars that feel frozen in time, perfect noodle bowls from no-frills joints, and the ritual of training with a good teacher. It’s cold beer with good people, and endless exploration on two wheels. This is the city as he lives it, drawn from punk, played on film, and always in motion.

These days, most hongbao arrive with a notification sound. A WeChat ping. An Alipay transfer. Digital confetti on your screen.
But before the QR codes and group chats, there was the physical red envelope, 红包 (hóngbāo), 利是 (lai see), ang pau (âng-pau), crisp paper, gold foil stamping, embossed characters, textured stock you could actually feel.
Originally rooted in Chinese New Year and special occasions like weddings and graduations, the red envelope tradition began in China and spread across Southeast Asia and diaspora communities worldwide. The money inside mattered. But so did the design.
Are you team digital transfer or team paper hongbao?

Everyone is hungry during the New Year so ESENES (@esenes.ww) knew exactly what to drop.
The brand behind those viral Cufant clogs and “Loose Screw” hats is back at it, this time with a limited-edition accessory that looks good enough to eat. Made from genuine translucent leather with a “dumpling filling” canvas lining inside, it’s playful, irreverent, and undeniably ESENES.
With only 150 pieces to exist, dropping 2/20 for $150, this might be hard to get your hands on.

Inspired by Everything Everywhere All at Once, the set comes with a wooden carrying case stamped with the iconic googly eye, 160 black tiles engraved with custom icons, racks, dice, the whole multiverse.
Would you play this or keep it boxed for the aesthetic?
