Say Something

What would you like to do before you die?
Say Something is a new city-project by an anonymous Ghent based person. He or she wants to create an open discussion among the Ghent-population. The open questions are on the posters, the dialogue depends on the different responses of the participants.

How does it work?
When you see a poster of Say Something in the streets of Ghent, you can answer the question by SMS or email. The most remarkable answers are posted on the Facebook page. That’s where I found this picture (and the one of Budapest which I posted a few weeks ago). I’m love love loving these new creative projects in this vibrant city.

I think I’ll put coconut-pineapple bowling on my to-do-list for this summer.
What a wonderful waste of time ^^

Coffeespot

Look what I got!

My very own write-it-yourself coffeebible for (home)baristas, coffee lovers or geeks. In the near future, I will write down al my sensory experience and objective observations of my favorite (and new!) coffee spots. You can buy this Coffeespot booklet (which is made by @nottooarty) here.

Hero // Stippling, Pointillism

This video shows the making of “Hero” a drawing of Miguel Endara’s dad, which is composed entirely out of 3.2 million ink dots. I think it’s a great motivator for endurance and hard work. Especially considering that it’s not just the act of making thousands of dots, but it’s also managing to compose all of those dots into a (rather funny) image of his father.

Beyond amazing! (:

PS: I’m wondering how many hand-cramps the guy had though…

All grown up

Can you also to keep looking at childhood photos of yourself? Funny to see how innocent you looked like isn’t it?The Argentine photographer Irina Werning has that kind of fascination too. But not only for her own retro pictures, even more for those of other people. She photographs the same person (x number of years older), in exactly the same setting, pose and outfit.

Back to the future, as she likes to call it.

Take a look at her pictures of the grown up man and woman below. I really want to do the same with these pictures of my sister & me, but I wonder if we are still that flexible to fit into a bucket…

Not a problem at all to make the cake though!
