missed connections: a film

A follow-up to this POST about one of my favorite blogs. 



The author and artist, Sophie Blackall describes the project as such:

"Messages in bottles, smoke signals, letters written in the sand; the modern equivalents are the funny, sad, beautiful, hopeful, hopeless, poetic posts on Missed Connections websites. Every day hundreds of strangers reach out to other strangers on the strength of a glance, a smile or a blue hat. Their messages have the lifespan of a butterfly. I'm trying to pin a few of them down."

street art by joshua allen harris

Found this at Trend Land.


The entire installation is made from plastic bags and installed over the subway grates around the city. How fun would it be to come across this while walking?

Also, check out this interview from New York Magazine.



And see more pictures after the jump.

new youtube subscription: pomplamoose music



Single Ladies, by Beyonce, covered by Pomplamoose

According to the YouTube page:
This cover is a VideoSong, a new medium with 2 rules:
1. What you see is what you hear (no lip-syncing for instruments or voice).
2. If you hear it, at some point you see it (no hidden sounds).




Nature Boy by eden ahbez, covered by Pomplamoose

bike polo


IAM1 - BIKE POLO par Alban Teurlai from Nike Studio on Vimeo.

Not quite as good as Polo in my humble opinion (although anything involving horses, with some exceptions, usually is a good thing), but it looks like a lot of fun.

edward sharpe and the magnetic zeros

This has been growing on me the more I watch it. Not my usual musical styling choice, but I kind of like it.



Reminds me a bit of Hot Club of Cowtown - sort of. Don't know why but it does.

latest iTunes download - Tim Williams

Official video for I Hit Another Wall.




Love it. And this, the video for Novel. It reminds me of Le Voyage Dans La Lune from 1902, though this video was shot in entirely still photos.
