Polonaise Icelandaise
That is what we’re goin’ to do, one month from now.
But first: Incubate! -
Go and see: The Falling Man
A documentary about a photo of a man jumping from the twin towers during 9/11. The film is a quest to identify the person on the picture. Heavy stuff but a must to see.

Mini houses on tiny islands
It sounds like a lot like Tim Burton, but these exist for real!

Go and see: Beautiful Losers
In the early 1990’s a loose-knit group of likeminded outsiders found common ground at a little NYC storefront gallery. Rooted in the DIY (do-it-yourself) subcultures of skateboarding, surf, punk, hip hop & graffiti, they made art that reflected the lifestyles they led. Developing their craft with almost no influence from the “establishment” art world, this group, and the subcultures they sprang from, have now become a movement that has been transforming pop culture.
Starring a selection of artists who are considered leaders within this culture, Beautiful Losers focuses on the telling of personal stories. It speaks to themes of what happens when the outside becomes “in” as it explores the creative ethos connecting these artists and today’s youth”
With quite some famous artists like Harmony Korine, Ed templeton and Shepard Fairey. More here.

David vs. Goliath
These pictures of homes with stubborn owners who don’t want to move, not even for a lot of money, somehow remind me of comic books like Asterix or Lucky Luke. Don’t know exactly why, but they do. More pics here.

Mastodon on Letterman
Mastodon on Letterman? What is the world coming to? Anyway, we have been to a Letterman show ourselves last year and it’s a quite an experience. Before the show started we got drilled, for something like over an hour, how to act, react, clap, laugh and breathe. And we just missed Barack Obama, who came on the show the day after we were there… But, we saw that wining brunette from Sex in the City instead. Hooray.

Aerial Virtual tour of New York
360 photography of New York City, seen from different angles. Like I said before, miniature stuff, maps, navigation tools, all that sort of things.. can’t get enough of it. But I wonder: does that dreamy background music give it an extra “woooow” factor? I admitt, it does to me…
(Thanks Groenjongen!)

Gary Busey
Found this image on FFFFound and thought it was quite hypnotising and freaky. Later i saw that it was the head of Gary Busey, the actor with the biggest mouth in the world, that was photoshopped in this image and actually meant to be funny instead. Found a whole gallery of those here.
Have a nice weekend!

Philips Carousel Commercial
Wicked award winning commercial for a new LCD TV with revolutionary new immersive experience made by Philips.

Go and see: Zeitgeist
The latest hype in quick spreading online guerrilla media is without a doubt Zeitgeist. These mystical documentaries claim telling the truth about Christianity, 9/11 and the world banking system. Once you start watching you can’t stop, due to the atmospheric voices, images and sound. And ofcourse it smells like conspiracy big time but the arguments they bring up really made us think.
Check out their website here.

Going Dutch
Great journalistic piece about our homeland Holland and its people appeared in the NY Times (I can’t link to the article itself, but click ‘Going Dutch - How I learned to..)
Quote:
“I spent my initial months in Amsterdam under the impression that I was living in a quasi-socialistic system, built upon ideas that originated in the brains of Marx and Engels. This was one of the puzzling features of the Netherlands. It is and has long been a highly capitalistic country — the Dutch pioneered the multinational corporation and advanced the concept of shares of stock, and last year the country was the third-largest investor in U.S. businesses — and yet it has what I had been led to believe was a vast, socialistic welfare state. How can these polar-opposite value systems coexist?”
(Thanks Wout!)
