Let's Colour is a worldwide initiative to transform grey spaces with colourful paint.
This spectacular global film for the Let’s Colour Project was shot by multi-award winning director Adam Berg over four weeks in Brazil, France, London and India: the stairs in Lapa-Brazil, the council estate in Aulnay-Paris, Virginia Primary School in Tower Hamlets-London and the boys school, main street and community centre in Jodhpur-India.
Every location is real and they remain transformed by a palette consisting of 120 different colours. It´s the result of 650 people from all over the world who came together in the name of colour.
I would love to be a part of such a beautiful project!!!!!
PIXELS is Patrick Jean's latest short film, shot on location in New York, where 8-bits creatures destroy everything they find in their way. ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC!!!!!!.
Flickr Flow is a very interesting experiment by two technologists, Fernanda Viegas and Martin Wattenberg. They invent new and very attractive ways for people to think and talk about data.
Can visualization help people think collectively? Can visualization move beyond numbers into the realm of words and images? Can visualization tell never-before-told stories? Can it uncover truths about color, memory, and sensuality?
This experiment deals with colour and time, and the way relative proportions of different colors can be seen in photos taken in each month of the year. The resulting diagram picks up the ebb and flow of seasonal colors. The close-ups below show winter, spring, summer, and fall.
More projects on their web site, and lots of interesting facts about colour and its study on their blog.
I just found an amazing illustrator, Nikki Farquharson, who makes experimental illustrations with coloured pens and photos or magazine cuttings. Some of them have been used by Missbehave Magazine. I think they are absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!! So colourful and carefree.
This bronce statue, which can be found in Kaunas (Lithuania), is probably not too special during daylight... But at night, it recovers its true meaning, and this beautiful work of art is completed.
After all these years I have observed that beauty, like happiness, is frequent. A day does not pass when we are not for an instant, in paradise. Jorge Luis Borges
Art is the pleasure of a mind that sees through the Nature and discovers she has a soul. Auguste Rodin
Beauty is lost in life, but is immortal in Art. Leonardo Da Vinci
Friday, 6. November 2009, 14:22:42 We appreciate good design, but sometimes content is king, and this blog is one of our favorites. We love how she highlight designers and artists she find interesting! Although she spend a lot of time reporting on other people's work, she also sparks off interesting discussions. Like her Picasso story proved. Her posts are mostly about design, but she also knows a thing or two, as her design portfolio proves! Put your hands together for our Spanish graphic designer Henar!
I really didn't expect this when I logged in on saturday. It was very early, and I was exhausted after a really long sleepless night working on a presentation. I looked at the screen, trying to focus, and what do I discover? I´M MEMBER OF THE WEEK!!!!
Thanks to all the people at my.opera that wanted to make me MOTW! I hope a lot of members will visit my pages and hopefully find something interesting enough.
I want to thank everyone that wrote all those nice messages, you are all so kind! Thanks to this, I´m meeting a lot of great people.
