BLU Wonder

Boy, some artists really have the ability to blow you away. BLU is one of them. A while ago he came up with a video where he drew over what seemed to have taken months an endless graffiti story with incredible ideas and characters onto a street. A real Jaw-Dropper! For those who dont remember it here is the video again:

And now BLU has come back with another visual belter! This time in a collaboration with an artist called David Ellis. In this video they have turned a derelict building into an animated piece of art. Truly and utterly amazing.

It seems these guys make a magic combination - surely something to look out for in the future!

Face in a Place of the Day

Matching the topic underneath - A Homely Face.

Go home - watch Home!

I 'm sure everyone remembers the ground breaking photo exhibiton "Earth from Above" which was showcased in every major city in the world a few years back.

Breathtaking large scale images shot by Yann Arthus Bertrand from a bird's eye perspective showed you our planet in an unforgettable way - but also taught you a lot about how humans are affecting every form of life - mostly in a busting-it-all-up sort of way.

Now Bertrand followed up this project with a jawdropping movie called Home. Filmed in the same style -  accompanied by a beautiful angelic soundtrack and narrated by a captivating voice it tells the story of our beloved Earth and how mankind is about to destroy it. This of course is not new to anyone who hasn't just woken up from a 20 year coma.

But showing our planet in such a fascinating way breaks your heart thinking that we might just kick it all in the bin so soon. 

The whole movie is freely available in HD on YouTube. It really brings you home!

Here a few stills i grabbed for you:

Face(s) in a Place of the Day

These pillars here seem to have inspired someone to pimp them up to become faces. I know they are not proper Faces in Places because of  extra the input - but somehow i still find them worthy to put them up here.

I laughed when I saw this sign! Just how bad has your service become, when you need to tell your costumers that something IS actually working?!

"No, really, it's NOT broken today!"
