Sudoeste 09

Sudoeste is a Portuguese music festival. This year I was there and it was really cool, not for the music but mostly for the friends and the spirit.

Beach, dust, sleeping in a tent, or two:P, alcohol, friends, Joy… and music:P

Stand out: Buraka Som Sistema – AMAZING concert –The concert, which opened and closed with the song “ Kalemba “ most known by “Wegue”, was excelled for the synchronism between all the components of the show, from light to the sound and the video.

Lily Allen: Everyone was singing and dancing! The song ” fuck you” was the best, clearly:)

Basement Jaxx: They were the last one acting and probably one of the bests. We were all dancing almost for spending the last strength. Great concert;)

Back at work!

Say it with vases

About Say It With Vases:

“Because they fold flat and are made of plastic, people are confused as to how they work. You may not know what a Say It With Vase is or how it is used on your first encounter. Don’t Fret…you are not alone! We have had countless speculation from others. Their guesses are amusing and range from balloons to stickers to ‘I have no clue’ ! It is great to see their reaction when they fill the vases up! HAPPY SURPRISE and DELIGHT!

With the unique Say It With Vase you’ll never again have to worry about where to put flowers. If you are taking flowers to someone at their office , to a teacher in her classroom, someone in the hospital, giving them to a loved one, or to your hostess in her home – take one of these vases with you!”

Technological art festival – Brazil

In ‘ TouchMe ‘, of the Dutchmen’s pair Tim Olden and David Kousemaker, the visitor is invited leaving his mark in a sort of frozen wall from glass.

The difference with the glasses of the real life is that, in this installation, the marks left by the public are registered forever and become integrant part of the work.

Here are extraordinary looks of Tim Burton’s up and coming re-imagination of Alice in Wonderland. From the first looks, it seems that the movie will take shape with the common dark art associated with Tim Burton. Wonderland will be hitting the movie screens on March 2010.

NICK CAVE SOUNDSUITS, WOW.

“Nick Cave’s Soundsuits are physical manifestations of his energy. He has said, ‘I believe that the familiar must move towards the fantastic. I want to evoke feelings that are unnamed, that aren’t realized except in dreams.’”
