Steve Jobs 1992 NeXTWORLD Expo 'Keynote Presentation' VHS Cassette Tape Uncommon VHS cassette tape of Steve Jobs’s historic keynote presentation at the inaugural NeXTWORLD Expo, which was held at San Francisco's Civic Auditorium and Brooks Hall on January 22-24, 1992. On the second day, Jobs thrilled attendees when he demoed NeXTSTEP Release 3, NeXT's modern operating system and developer platform, and introduced improved NeXTstation systems scheduled for release in 1992. The tape’s label reads: “Steve Jobs / Keynote Presentation / NeXTWORLD Expo, 1/23/92 / 1992 NeXT Computer, Inc. / All rights reserved / 1M4901 / 1:50:49.” Includes its original paper slipcase, which bears wear and stains. In fine condition. Having resigned from Apple in the fall of 1985, Jobs founded the innovative NeXT project, a computer and software company aimed at the markets of business and higher education. The first NeXT Computer was introduced in 1988, and then the smaller NeXTstation two years later. While computers encountered subpar sales, the NeXTSTEP operating system and development environment proved highly influential. Apple purchased NeXT in 1997 for $429 million and 1.5 million shares of Apple stock, with Jobs, as part of the agreement, returning to the company he had co-founded in 1976.

A ceremonial short sword, "ikul" Ceremonial sword, "ikul" Cuba, DR Congo Ohne Sockel / without base Copper, wood, white metal. H 40 cm. Provenance: Gérald Minkoff (1937-2009) and Muriel Olesen (1948-2020), Geneva. Published: Minkoff, Gérald (1997). L'art fait signe aux royaumes des Kuba. Edition Miss Understanding For All. Page 26. Exhibited: Forum de Meyrin, Ville de Meyrin, 11.04.-10.05.1997. Described by Gérald Minkoff 1997 in the exhibition catalog "L'art fait signe aux royaumes des Kuba" as follows: "Un vrai mukuba ne saurait sortir sans son poignard ikul qu'il porte sur la hanche droite, enfilé dans un pli de son vêtement. Le plus court des deux possède une lame en cuivre d'une forme peu fréquente. The other one, an iculintey, is made of wood and its port is reserved for this period of three hours of the new moon, when it does not appear in the sky. During this time, it is accepted that the men do not murder and that the women would not conceive a child, their condition increasing with the reappearance of the moon." ----------------------------------------------------- Ceremonial weapons are characterized by careful manufacture and decorative design, e.g. ornamentation with valuable materials such as copper, bronze, ivory or fur. Their original function is therefore limited, so that their use as a weapon of war is no longer the main focus. Instead, they signaled the wearer's social status and power, making them more like cult, ceremonial, dignity and status weapons that were also used in barter.

Fogel Media. ----------------------------------------------------- Gérald Minkoff and Muriel Olesen Muriel Minkoff-Olesen (1948- 2020) completed her training at the School of Design in Geneva. Gérald Minkoff (1937-2009) was a trained anthropologist and biologist. Both achieved fame as artists and from their meeting in 1967, the emblematic couple of contemporary art were inseparable. The travel-loving Olesen-Minkoff duo explored life like curious nomads, roaming the globe from Africa to Asia, Oceania, America and Patagonia. As artists and experienced collectors of contemporary art, they understandably had a keen sensitivity to the aesthetics and concepts of non-European art. The couple's Geneva apartment, perhaps their most beautiful joint work, thus became a place where the works of close friends such as Daniel Spoerri, Arman and Man Ray, as well as their own photographs, lived together with almost a thousand objects from Africa, Oceania, Asia and South America.
