Bravia

oktober 5, 2007

They did it again. Third time in a row. Sony made a new commercial for their Bravia television, and it’s an original commercial again. The imagination! SUPERB

I’ll post the first 2 commercials here aswell, seeing them all 3 must make you feel happy! They make me happy!
The first commercial took 10 days to prepare :s and the shot lasted less then a minute :p

For the second commercial they used 250.000 superballs bouncing down the streets of San Francisco. I hope no-one was coverd under those balls :p he would look like he had been in a fight :p

The Third and last one (for now) has used 2,5 tonnes of plasticine for the stop-motion anymation in the streets on NY. It’s just crazy!!!

If you look carefully you see sometimes 2 bunnies colliding, like a yellow and a blue one and a green one emerges :p

Beautifull site btw
Thx Mick

Video Clips = Art?

augustus 5, 2007

I think it Videoclips should come together on the cd with the single… Some clips are just so original and beautifull it’s a shame you can’t see them when you want… All the work people put into those clips and they just show it on tv for promotion… Couldn’t singles come out on dvd with the clip attached? Or more artists should bring out dvd’s with their clips on…

One of my favourite clips is Star Guitar - The Chemical Brothers … From the first moment i saw that clip it’s been ingraved in my memory ever since.. It’s a computer simulation, but the way the environment fits to the music was so appealing to me, i always like when that happens. Like when i’m driving and have to stop in front of the lights and the light switches exactly with a change of beat, i find it always amusing… Or maybe i explain it better like when you’re walking on the rithm of the beat of a song… That’s more understandable i think…

De geile zeemeermin

I myself find “the little Mermaid” from Disney one of their best cartoons… It’s always funny to see some variations on it. This one I found on a blog I read…

Sint-Lucas Gent

juni 25, 2007

Het nieuwe gebouw van de kunstafdeling Sint-Lucas, een ontwerp van Xavier De Geyter begint toch stillaan de afwerking te naderen. Ik moet toch toegeven dat het wel iets heeft. Ben wel eens benieuwd hoe ze de zwartezusterstraat gaan aanpakken…

Diamonds are a girls best friend…

juni 2, 2007

Stel u is voor da u vriending graag ook zo behangen werd in diamanten… Damien Hirst, ook bekend van de geconserveerde haai, heeft een schedel bekleed met diamanten… een totaalwaarde van zo maar even 73 miljoen euro… Het duurste hedendaagse kunstwerk wordt gezegd… How death can look so beautifull but expensive, zou die dame of heer weten da zijn/haar schedel hiervoor gebruikt zou worden? of zou’t ne valse zijn

He did it again!

mei 31, 2007

Een van mijn favoriete fotografen van het moment, Erwin Olaf, heeft weer een heel mooie reeks gemaakt geinspireerd op de jaren zestig. Zoals gewoonlijk heel mooi gestilleerd :)

Pink tree

mei 2, 2007

Hmm Last week, I woke up, have asleep I walked to the kitchen to get my breakfast, I looked through the window because it was such a beautifull day again, but I immediatly I was awake with a shock. Our neighbours, a student house with 14 rooms I think, painted the old tree in their garden in PINK!!! I coulnd’t believe it at first :s They painted it overnight i guess. It looks kinda flashy, makes me wonder if there’s a gay next door, but it kinda disturbs the look from our window… I was happy to have a nice view from our window… Our kitchen looks out on an open area, mostly used for parking space, but Hey, not many have a view as far as ours…
I have no idea why they painted it, did somebody have a left over from painting uhm a pencill maybe? Is it art? lol

I wonder if you can do this legal… You can’t paint the front of your house in any colour… This tree is like the most viewable object for al the houses around it… Can you paint it any way you want then? I don’t know lol, but i don’t think the owner of the house will be very happy with the new look of the tree, so i guess by next year the tree will be gone… To bad, coz i kinda liked it…

Liedje

april 10, 2007

Lieg alsjeblieft niet tegen me
niet over iets groots niet over iets
anders. Liever hoor ik het
vernietigendste dan dat je liegt
want dat is nog vernietigender.

Lieg niet over de liefde
iets dat je voelt of iets dat je
zou willen voelen. Liever word ik
bedroefd dan dat je liegt
want dat is nog bedroevender.

Lieg niet tegen me over gevaar
want ik voel toch je angst
en wat ik gewaar word is waar
of ik ken je niet en dat
is nog gevaarlijker.

Lieg niet tegen me over ziekte
liever kijk ik die diepte in
dan dat ik mij verlies in één
van jouw lieve verzinsels
want daarmee verlies ik me dieper.

Lieg niet tegen me over sterven
want zo lang we er nog zijn
vind ik dat toegangsloze
niet mededelen wat je denkt
erger en zo veel doder.

Liedje - Judith Herzberg

Er is ook een gezongen versie hiervan gezongen door Herman Van Veen met een gelijknamige titel.

Translation in english (because it’s such a meaningfull song)

Please do not lie to me
not concerning something spectacularly not concerning something else.
Rather I hear the most devastating then that you lie
because that is still more devastating.

Do not lie concerning love
something that you feel or something that you would want feel.
Rather I am saddened then that you lie
because that is still more depressing.

Do not lie to me concerning danger
because I nevertheless feel your fear
and what I perceives is true
or I do not know you and that is still more dangerous.

Do not lie to me concerning sickness
I prefer looking into that depth
then to lose myself in one of your sweet lies
because then i would lose myself deeper.

Do not lie to me concerning death
because as long as we are here
not telling what you think about it
is more terrible and more deadlier.

Poem

maart 4, 2007

‘t is al een tijdje geleden dat ik hier nog iets schreef, dus ga ik nu even iets achterlaten. Een gedichtje dat iemand op zijn profiel had staan, ik vond het wel de moeite om er even bij na te denken…

You ask for a poem.
I offer you a blade of grass.
You say it is not good enough.
You ask for a poem.

I say this blade of grass will do.
It has dressed itself in frost,
It is more immediate
Than any image of my making.

You say it is not a poem,
It is a blade of grass and grass
Is not quite good enough.
I offer you a blade of grass.

You are indignant.
You say it is too easy to offer grass.
It is absurd.
Anyone can offer a blade of grass.

You ask for a poem.
And so I write you a tragedy about
How a blade of grass
Becomes more and more difficult to offer,

And about how as you grow older
A blade of grass
Becomes more difficult to accept.
