Breakbot makes me dance

Have a look to this amazing video! It is composed by approximately 2000 images watercolor painted, all handmade by Irina Dakeva.
Huge work! I love the music, it is Breakbot from the french label EdBanger Records.
If you don't want to dance when you listen to it, you might have a problem...!

I love Albert's thinking

Headspace Project

Headspace 1 Project was done by the students of the University of Melbourne, as part of their Bachelor of Environments degree.
The students were invited to take ideas from within their heads and place them on the outside. It had to be made out of paper, and could be worn on the head.
The video is long, but it is worth it to watch it, it's just amazing!

Au Clair de Lune - Outdoor Cinema Festival

Au clair de Lune is the Outdoor Cinema Festival happening every summer in Paris.
It's free and it is always in fabulous places of Paris.
All you need is to come with friends, a home made picnic, a nice bottle of wine and a jacket in case it gets colder when the night comes.
Last week I went to see A bout de Souffle, from Jean-Luc Godard, in the gardens of the Champs-Elysées.
The festival will end with The Science of Sleep from Michel Gondry, on the 22nd of August, right in front of St Eustache Church. Can't wait!

Weekend in the Hidden Bay...

If you want to escape from the city and get fresh air, the Hidden Bay Hotel, is a very sweet place, only 2H30 from Paris.
Located in Cayeux-sur-Mer in Northern France, in the lovely landscape of the Bay of the Somme.
The old bistro "Le Petit Café" was recently renovated to form this beautiful eco-friendly design hotel. The design of the restaurant is a mix of old and modern styles.
The atmosphere is nice and cosy, the food really good, and the owner very welcoming. In brief, you feel at home, and you don't want to leave!

Hussein Chalayan - Best Of

Have a look to this video showing the best of Hussein Chalayan. The quality of the video and the sound are not excellent, but the content is very interesting!

I really admire the work of this fashion designer, especially for mixing art, design and fashion. To me it is more than clothes, it is like living sculptures.

The Diary of a Disappointed Book

Lovely court-métrage made by Studiocanoe. A nice story about the life of a book, and how often books are abandoned or neglected.
