Field of Light

Field of Light, an installation by British light artist Bruce Munro, opened this weekend at The Holbourne Museum. Field of Light consists of a stunning 5,000 lightbulbs "planted" around the museum grounds creating something akin to Avatar's glowing Pandora landscape.

Breathtaking - if you're in the UK - check it out! Its open through January 2012.

CNN Ecosphere

Hello lovely

This live twitter visualization is one of the most gorgeous, smooth and data filled visualizations I've ever seen. CNN's Ecosphere is a visualization of the live conversation for the COP17 Conference on Climate Change.

Breathtaking...and nerve-wacking to watch...but beautiful.

Eames love

Such brilliant people so far ahead of their time. I wish I could have been designing during this time. Charles and Ray Eames documentary "Eames: the architect and the painter" playing now at the IFC Center.

London Squared

Today is full of awesome.

For anyone who knows me...this video is like an amazing motion version of my "Faces" project that I've been doing for years now. These faces found around New York City are not static, however, but talking and singing!!

Combine anthropomorphized newspaper bins and insane stop motion - are you kidding me - this is best thing ever!! LondonSquared - hats off to you. This is spectacular.

And to top it all off - it is yet another amazing part of the MoMA Talk to Me exhibit I have yet to see!

Thanks to @veroacosta for knowing me so well and sharing this!!!

Also...both videos autoplay - sorry. The first one is a music video and the second is hilarious personalities talking about life.
