Bubbles, Bubbles, Bubbles, Bubbles....
This is another great example that sometimes the simpler an idea is - the more powerful. In this case the straight forward idea was to hang thousands of white ballons up in the air inside stunning architectural gemstones which resultet in this mindlowing and surrealistic effect.
Artist, dancer and choreographer William Forsythe has been taking his audio/visual installation called Scattered Crowd around the world since 2002.
If you want to know what it feels like to walk among these stunningly arranged white bubbles of air then there is a chance to see them in 2013 at the Brockenheimer Depot in Frankfurt (Main) in German. Running from 21.3.-24.3.2013.

As a little taster here is already a video from an earlier exhibition a few years back at the Saddler's Wells in London:
Street (He)art by David Zinn
Seriously, I think I have never come across a more heart-warming collection of work than these images here by artist David Zinn. I love how he often incorporates his characters into the surroudings and also how he really cleverly uses the perspective to create an even more powerful optical effect.

iPhone Pixels turned into Instant Photos!
My mind was blown when I saw what the guys from the Impossible Project came up with. They invented this apparat that exposes the light of an iPhone screen onto instant photo paper. This means whatever you have shown on your screen - will seconds later be turned into a real instant photograph! Total Genius!

A Collision of Stars
Ha! I like the idea and the execution of these images. We've probably all seen the old photos versus new photo projects that usually show you places mixed with old postcards or old family pics with new ones.
And I guess this is just another spin on the same idea - but a think quite a striking version of it.
