a path in the forest

Japanese architect Tetsuo Kondo carried out this beautiful project in Kadriorg forest, 15 minutes from the capital of Estonia (Tallinn was the European Capital of Culture last year, but you knew that already...). The visitor is given a completely different and fascinating opportunity to experience the forest via a 95 metre long path hung in the air between the trees.

wilco

There are bands who always come and visit us when on
tour or when they have released a new record. In some cases, seeing the same names appear over and over again can be a bit tiring. This is not the case. Wilco are on their way over again, and based on memories of their previous shows, we predict that the Kursaal will be sold out for their March 2nd show.

biblios

This is not the first time that we have seen
books used as raw material for works of art.
The skill shown in some of the works in the
Biblios project by artista Naina Guy Laramee
is worthy of mention. Please do not try to do
this with an e-book.

land art

The artist Walter Mason, explores nature, and
with the elements he comes across he has the
habit of making small environmental sculptures
and taking photos of them. The rapid and direct
effect time has on these organic “sculptures”
is simple and beatiful. That’s why we like it
so much.

tindersticks

What we said about the band Wilco and their live
shows is equally applicable to Tindersticks. Only for the difference name, date and venue, we would just publish the same text. March 23rd at the Victoria Eugenia.March 2012 will long stick in the memory of music lovers in San Sebastian.

the new library in stuttgart

We’ve shown you that you can make some
unusual sculptures using books. Korean architect
Eun Young Yi has also shown us you can make
some pretty nice places to store books too.
Every book in the world is saying the same
thing: “If you’re not in the Stuttgart City Library,
you’re nobody”.

streetanatomy

For those of you in love with human anatomy, here’s a little treat for you. A gem of a website called streetanatomy that shows how our skin-covered meat, veins, bones and the rest of our bodies can appear basically anywhere. You will find almost everything maginable about anatomy there.

a great dance session out of Pepper Pots,
Sweet Vandals and Cherry Boppers, well,
you’re basically a zombie.
