‘Uzair Merchant is a compelling visual storyteller who stimulates conversation through a new age matrix that intertwines AR, AI, and VR.’ — Vaughn Lowery
World Police Summit brought together global law enforcement from over 138 countries to share tomorrow’s strategies to combat global emerging criminal challenges and pave the way for a safer future.
To highlight this safer future, the opening ceremony for the summit featured a never-before-seen film, Merging Realities, which quickly turned into a fully immersive experience for attendees. Viewed on one of the largest seamless mesh holographic screens ever built, at 22m x 4m, this was the first immersive experience of its kind.
With the slogan of the Dubai Police in mind, “Welcome to Policing 5.0,” the film portrays a sci-fi inspired world of Dubai, the technological advances and how the police are always one step ahead, hinting to what the future of policing would be. It showcases the universe all the way back to a single atom, showcasing how we are all connected in a Quantum Realm, the atoms, charges, and electrons pulsating through all of us, the larger picture that we are all one.
The genius behind this film is Uzair Merchant, the founder of bKREATIV Productions and The Kreativ Lab. Merchant’s most recent work embarked on pushing the boundaries of immersive experiences, merging together mesh technology and holographic, traditional cinema, and live onstage action. His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, H.H. Sheikh Ahmed bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Second Deputy Ruler of Dubai were in attendance along with Lieutenant General Abdullah Khalifa Al Marri, Commander-in-Chief of Dubai Police, and police leaders, security experts and professionals from across the world.
Merging Realities will soon be released to the public. The full livestream of the event can be viewed here.
His artistic journey began with a pencil, where he sketched almost anything and everything that caught his eye, and then progressed to the camera. He became fascinated with capturing inanimate objects and presenting them to people, resulting in conceptual narratives. He successfully integrated his creative talent into the commercial arena after nine years at Voir Fashion Magazine as Art Director. Selfridges, Chanel, and Dior recognized his deliverables because of his unique storytelling style. Through dealings with the mentioned clients, Luke realized that high-level advertising campaigns heavily rely on emotional connections with consumers rather than tangible goods and/or services offered.
Enjoying a round of golf, breathing in the fresh air, and taking in the stunning surroundings – for a growing number of hotel guests – this is the perfect leisure experience or vacation. Numerous scientific studies have confirmed the benefits of golf: it is one of the most enjoyable and relaxing ways to improve one‘s overall health and well-being. Few other sports offer such a comprehensive opportunity to enhance both physical and mental state.
“We are thrilled to see the growing interest from our guests in exclusive golf getaways, which confirms the value of our investments in this thriving leisure sector. Across our portfolio of 82 international luxury hotels, we offer access to brilliantly designed golf courses in stunning locations, with some even hosting prestigious tournaments”, says Amanda Elder, Chief Commercial Officer of the Kempinski Group and member of the Executive Board. Here is a carefully curated selection of Kempinski’s finest golf-related hotels around the globe.
Belek, a town characterised by its Seljuk-style architecture and crystal-clear waters, offers golf enthusiasts an abundance of choice with its impressive selection of courses. Nestled within the Antalya Golf Club complex, Kempinski Hotel The Dome is a charming Mediterranean resort with lavish pools, a private beach, and the spacious Sanitas Spa complete with a Turkish Hammam. For the ultimate golfing holiday experience, the PGA National Antalya Golf Club offers a challenging 18-hole course spanning 6,477 meters that seamlessly integrate with the surrounding forest. The shorter Pasha course also entices golfers, with strategically placed bunkers inviting experienced players coupled with generous fairways to ease the impact of wayward shots from higher handicappers. Other notable courses include the impressive 7,200-yard championship Carya Golf Club. With Belek’s proximity to the ancient world, guests must not miss the opportunity to visit Aspendos, where the remarkably well-preserved theatre continues to host memorable opera and ballet performances.

Making a monumental power move, VERZUZ—the online award-winning, multi-media platform launched by Swizz Beatz and Timbaland—has cemented an exclusive partnership with X for distribution. Swizz and Timbaland personally broke the news at an activation in Cannes, France today.
Earlier this year, Swizz and Timbaland reacquired VERZUZ from previous partner Triller, now owning 100% of the platform, while retaining their equity (along with the artists who participated in VERZUZ) in Triller. Upon resuming complete control, they sought out the perfect channel for independent distribution.
The partnership journey with X has now begun!
Together, the companies orchestrated a mutually beneficial alliance where Swizz and Timbaland maintain their full ownership and creative control, while X receives exclusive distribution rights. As a result, VERZUZ will now broadcast to an audience of over 550 million active users, exponentially expanding its viewership and international reach like never before. Since the inception of VERZUZ, the conversations around each VERZUZ naturally evolved on X from fans and enthusiasts alike. Viewers will now be able to watch for FREE exclusively on X, bringing the visual series, and viral conversation, all to one platform! Stay tuned for the announcement of the next VERZUZ matchup coming soon.
About this chapter, Swizz stated, “We are beyond thrilled to have found the best partner for Verzuz. Not only are we excited to have Verzuz on X, we’re excited to help X build the biggest entertainment company in the world. I would like to thank Elon Musk, Linda Yaccarino, Brett Weitz, Mitchell Smith and the entire X team for believing in the Verzuz vision. We can’t wait to get to work.”
Timbaland added, “We are thrilled to partner with X, the most innovative platform globally. Our goal has always been to bring Verzuz to the world, which we can now do bigger than ever.
As they have since the first VERZUZ, the founders uplift the culture and community into the spotlight in the center of the world’s stage. However, they preserve the same grit, honor, authenticity, and integrity that makes hip-hop, rap, R&B, soul and ALL genres of music so special. They have the opportunity to magnify its resonance, thanks to Elon Musk, Linda Yaccarino, CEO of X, and the entire X team championing their unfiltered voices.
Linda Yaccarino stated, “X is so proud to partner with trailblazing creators, artists, and entrepreneurs, Swizz Beatz & Timbaland. Our platform stands at the forefront of innovation, and Verzuz defines the essence of an innovative content experience. As we continue to work with the most exciting voices to bring premium content to X, there is no better fit than this series. Together we will redefine how consumers engage with their favorite entertainment, one Verzuz at a time.”
VERZUZ has partnered with Uncontained Media, led by Christian Sarabia, and Raymond Garcia. Together, they have produced multiple hit shows including Emmy Winner DRIVE WITH SWIZZ BEATZ and will serve as the production company and Executive Producers of VERZUZ.
The influence and impact of VERZUZ has proven to be undeniable. So far, it has produced over 40 episodes, generating 100 million-plus live views and over 70 billion impressions. It has naturally encompassed other verticals with VERZUZ SPORTS, and VERZUZ COMEDY, all which play well to some of the most highly engaged communities on X. Not to mention, the power of the #VERZUZEFFECT cannot be overstated. Every artist that has participated in a VERZUZ have seen dramatic increases in streaming, ticket sales, merchandise, and overall revenue from just one appearance.
Welcome to the biggest, boldest, and best era of VERZUZ. Welcome to the future of entertainment.
360 MAGAZINE had an opportunity to capture as well interview new face Deshawn ‘Tree’ Coplin.
What’s the first thing people notice when they meet you?
My height and eyes.
If you had one word to best describe yourself, what would it be? Why?
I’m torn between two. Experienced because I’ve lived many lives. Ethereal because I’m not from this planet.
What was it like growing up in your shoes?
My life is a movie.
Siblings?
2 younger siblings. I love them to death. I wish that I could see them more often.
Mixed heritage?
I never met my biological father. My mother is white and my step dad is black. I’ve done a DNA test to see if I could locate my biological father. Instead, I found a lot of cousins from South Carolina. I’m Nigerian, Egyptian, German and Native American.
City or place of origin?
Born in Pocatello, Idaho. At the age of 2, we moved. Namely, due to my step dad being a part of the special forces of the United States Air Force.
If you had an opportunity to look in the mirror and have the 10yro version of yourself, say to the present-day version of you…. How would that conversation go?
I’d be proud and blessed to see the man staring back at me.
Now that you’ve been immortalized by 360, what’s next? Where do you go from here?
I want to become a fashion model. I want to become an actor and specialize in action and horror films. And, I want to design fashionable clothes for baseball players.
In the morning, as soon as you wake up, is there a goto regimen that you have in place?
Gym! I train everyday for 2 hours.
At night, right before you go to bed, what do you have to have?
Sex and meditation.
Most memorable moment in your life and why?
The birth of my daughter was the day my life changed for the better. I’m doing this so that one day I can give her the world.
Who’s your ideal soul mate?
Someone who is a good contact to me.
Physically?
Slim thick
Age range?
27-33
Are they on a certain frequency?
The frequency of love. We treat one another with respect. And, I’ll punish those who treat my queen wrong.
Is there anything we haven’t touched on that you like us to know about?
Nope. Y’all are just gonna have to wait and find out.

On May 6, 2024, Little Rock, Arkansas, typically known for its traditional southern charm, hosted an avant-garde celebration that could rival any major city’s fashion scene. “Revival: An Evening of Art and Fashion” brought together Little Rock’s vibrant artistic community for an immersive, invitation-only event that showcased local talent with international flair. Organized by creatives and philanthropists Cat Sims, Sarah Oden, and Kimberly Cyr at Jill White Designs, the evening exemplified how even smaller locales can produce forward-thinking and inspiring cultural experiences.
Drawing inspiration from the opulence of the Met Gala, the event adopted this year’s Met Gala theme, “Garden of Time,” and “Reawakening Fashion.” The hosts aimed to create a unique ambiance where history and modernity intertwined, celebrating the creative spirit of Little Rock. The venue featured a live showcase of the Met Gala, allowing guests to experience the prestigious event alongside their local celebration, fostering a sense of global connectivity.
Kimberly Cyr, one of the hosts and the event’s wardrobe stylist, shared, “Curating fashion for ‘Revival’ was about showcasing local designers and jewelry artists. We wanted each look to resonate with the theme and evoke a sense of timeless elegance. Seeing guests embrace their individuality and push fashion boundaries was incredibly rewarding.”
Indeed, fashion was the highlight of the evening. Guests adorned themselves in high-fashion attire rarely seen in Little Rock, deviating from the traditional ballgowns and tuxedos often donned at the region’s typical formal events. Big floral headpieces, extravagant dresses, and avant-garde ensembles created an atmosphere reminiscent of the Met Gala’s red carpet. Designs by Korto Momolu and Souq, paired with accessories from OFaolain, Lydia Elsa Martin, and Laura B Luxury, demonstrated the high level of craftsmanship and creativity in Little Rock’s fashion scene.
The artistic contributions were equally impressive. Works from Stephen Wilson Studio, Alecia Walls-Barton, Kvinna Studio, Jaird Art, and Hannah Hill Art provided a visual feast that complemented the fashion displays. Each piece was thoughtfully curated to enhance the overall aesthetic and thematic experience.
Sarah Oden, creative coordinator of Revival and creative director at Ava Model Management, emphasized the importance of accessibility and diversity in the event. “We aimed to bridge the gap between established names and emerging talents in Arkansas art and fashion. The excitement and creativity from all participants truly made ‘Revival’ a standout event.”
Enhancing the evening’s elegance, Tanarah Luxe Floral’s exquisite arrangements adorned the venue, adding vibrant bursts of color and natural beauty. The floral designs, along with the venue’s stained glass windows, provided a stunning backdrop that elevated the entire experience.
The event was not just a visual and sensory delight but also a philanthropic endeavor, supporting the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. The hosts, alongside generous sponsors, ensured that the evening celebrated creativity while contributing to a meaningful cause.
DJ Jellybean’s lively soundtrack and Central Arkansas Entertainment’s sleek, modern production elements, including a glossy vinyl red carpet, added to the night’s glamour. Lori Sparkman, an internationally recognized photographer, and Weaver Films captured the evening’s memorable moments, creating a visual record of the event’s highlights.
Culinary artistry by Vibrant Occasions added another layer of sophistication. Guests indulged in gourmet stations, from mozzarella caprese to a dramatic parmesan cheese wheel set ablaze. The culinary experience was as creative and elegant as the fashion and art on display.
“Revival: An Evening of Art and Fashion” received overwhelmingly positive feedback, with guests expressing how seen and inspired they felt. The event set a new standard for artistic and fashion events in Little Rock, demonstrating that even small towns can host events with international appeal and impact.
As plans for next year’s event are already underway, “Revival” promises to continue celebrating Little Rock’s rich creative landscape, offering a unique blend of art, fashion, and philanthropy. For those eager to be part of this exclusive experience, connecting with the hosts is the first step towards securing a coveted spot on the guest list.

Lexus partners with luxury appliance brands to build bespoke culinary experience on wheels
To celebrate the recent debut of the all-new 2024 Lexus GX, Lexus has partnered with luxury appliance brand Monogram™ to design a bespoke concept vehicle for culinary, wine, and spirits aficionados: the Monogram GX. The vehicle will make its official debut at the Food & Wine Classic, June 14-16 in Aspen, CO.
“Our all-new Lexus GX was designed to highlight the unique duality of luxury and off-roading capability, enabling our guests to create amazing experiences on the road,” said Cynthia Tenhouse, vice president, Lexus marketing. “Together with Monogram, Lexus is taking the GX experience to a new level, where road adventures meet culinary experiences.”
“This unique pairing of unexpected luxury cooking while away from home is created with signature pieces from Monogram that elevate the everyday,” said Julie Burns, executive director of Monogram appliances. “The Monogram GX puts an entirely new spin on the road trip experience with a crafted, culinary journey.”
Inspired by the Monogram Designer Collection, Lexus and Monogram consulted with the luxury appliance brand’s creative director and celebrated interior designer, Richard T. Anuszkiewicz, to bring this concept vehicle to life. Alongside the industrial design team at Monogram, Richard looked through an elevated lens to further heighten the vehicle’s refined style and proportions. Showcasing a story on materiality and entertainment, the Monogram GX features two-toned camel leather custom patterned interior, an emphasis on brass and titanium metal, Dekton slate stone accents, custom rims, and exterior detailing. The brands tapped the elite team at Complete Customs to build and engineer this one-of-a-kind showpiece.
Specialty features of the Monogram GX include:
Monogram 30” Smart Flush Hearth Oven: the electric hearth oven was handcrafted to capture the performance of a wood-fired brick oven to prepare pizza, soft artisanal bread, or fresh-caught roasted branzino.
Monogram Forge Heated Ice Press: the first and only heated ice press in the U.S.; entertain to the nines with this showstopping piece, that creates a sphere to chill bourbon or spirits.
Exterior Wine and Bourbon Storage: with pressure fitted cutouts on the exterior side panels, individuals can store bottles of wine, bourbon, a bottle opener, and glasses for quick retrieval of drinking essentials.
Chilling compartments: a rear cold drawer and an additional cold console compartment in the back seat offer flexible chilling for your ingredients.
Plating Station: additional hearth-oven must-haves, cutlery and trash bin are positioned within the trunk.
Wine and Spirits Bar: the bar comes complete with a bar kit, glassware, bitters, and folding cutting board.
The vehicle shown is a special project vehicle modified with non-Lexus parts that may void warranty, negatively impact safety, and not be street legal.
