, Rossy de Palma, Ali Michael, etc.) and asked them to photograph themselves in his work. They all released the photos at the same time, triggering a mass Yang Li-ification of Instagram.For Spring 2020, on September 28th Li presented the"Automatic Show II: Greatest Hits" at La Gaité Lyrique in Paris. The collection was shown on 3-D models — based on scans of Ruby Aldridge, Wolf Gillespie and Tatiana Katysheva — created by artist Augusta Yr, in collaboration with Showstudio.
Ruby Aldridge on Instagram: “Last night I got to sing ‘Just like Honey’ with @jesusandmarychain This was completely insane. Once in a lifetime experience. Thank you so…” And Li, an industrial enthusiast, has paired the clothes with an upcoming LP featuring music from 14 participating artists. The Jesus and Mary Chain even performed at the show, followed by a live appearance onstage of friends of the brand dressed in the spring collection. Aldridge, a musician in her own right, sang"Just Like Honey" with the band."This was completely insane," she wrote on Instagram."Once in a lifetime experience.
Li dipped into his archives for the collection, asking friends and artists to remix garments from his past seven collections. According to the accompanying press release,"Greatest Hits: Automatic Show II is Li's second exploration of the automatic show concept, whereby creative control of the collection's presentation is turned over to collaborators. By ceding control of collection imagery, Li seeks to reverse the status quo and create a more genuine method of storytelling.
The clothes were infused with rock 'n' roll — the scanned models were even shown holding guitars. One of Aldridge's scans sported a t-shirt with"Just Like Honey" lyrics:"Listen to the girl/ As she takes on half the world." Leather jackets abounded, and there was a good deal of dramatic evening wear. But while the garments had a real '90s vibe, Li's presentation methods are decidedly modern.

Drop Out, Andrew Yang!It was easy, initially, to dismiss Andrew Yang as a joke. When he first entered the primary, the startup guy-turned-presidential candidate’s most distinguishing qualities seemed to be his almost pathological aversion to wearing ties and a belief that giving all Americans over the age of 18 a Universal Basic Income, what he called his “Freedom Dividend,” would prepare us for a looming economic collapse driven by robots and automation. (Yang himself often sums up his presidential run like this: “There’s an Asian man running for president who wants to give everyone $1,000 a month.”)
