Google Doodle

 The dorky modern dancer in me loves this: yesterday the Google Doodle was an animation of Martha Graham's Lamentation to celebrate the modern dance pioneer's 117th birthday.



Recognize the artist? Ryan Woodward - the same artist from my first post about the animated dance, "Thought of You". Yea bringing together creative spirits from all over time and space! Sometimes Google is awesome.

The English Language

This infograph I created to represent the three distinct time periods of the development of the English language. A major thank you to my sister for researching and organizing the content. Oh, and writing a mid-term paper on it. Heyo!

Wasteland

Until last week there were only 2 movies that have made me cry - The Green Mile (who doesn't?) and P.S. I Love You (ok, don't tell me Gerard only being in the first 10 minutes doesn't tear you up inside).

So a third has been added.  WastelandMaybe it was the full moon, maybe it was the stress of finals week a-comin. But I don't think so. This is a powerful documentary. Vik Muniz is an incredible artist and through this project, an anthropologist, philanthropist, and social activist.

His idea was to change the lives of a group of people with the same materials they use in their lives everyday.

You need to see the full thing (instant view on Netflix!) - the trailer doesn't do it justice. But here it is .


WASTE LAND Official Trailer from Almega Projects on Vimeo.

"The moment when one thing turns into another thing is a beautiful moment. A combination of sounds transforms into music." - Vik Muniz

Here's the poster I made for a class in response to the film.  I arranged our glass bottles into a mosaic in my driveway and stood on the roof to take a picture. Can anyone guess what it's supposed to be? It's a bird in mid flight (inspired by this image).
