Filip Dujardin (b.1971, Belgium) - Fictions

Working with a set of photos of real buildings in and around Ghent, Belgium, and using digital collaging techniques, the photographer Filip Dujardin created a mind-dazzling collection of structurally impossible architecture photographs entitled “Fictions”. Filip Dujardin studied history of art at the University of Ghent, specializing in architecture and now works as an independent photographer. His work on this project expresses the intricacy of architecture while pushing the limits of reality well beyond the immediate visual effect. Transforming existing buildings into fictional structures, Filip took out details and added some unusual ones instead. (source: Freshome)

Thank You :> 

Il mondo digitale ci consente di trascendere la regola fondamentale dell’ordine del mondo reale: non più ogni cosa a suo posto, ma finalmente, ogni cosa in più posti contemporaneamente.

Gli effetti di questa novità si ripercuoteranno nel mondo reale.

Per esempio le informazioni mediche che un tempo ci raggiungevano solo attraverso gli attenti filtri degli esperti e delle pubblicazioni scientifiche, sono ora disponibili a chiunque.

Un esempio andate su questo sito:

Un tumore al cervello. Degli Open Data molto personali. Una opportunità

A brain cancer. Some very personal Open Data. An opportunity.

Possiamo cambiare il significato della parola “cura”. Possiamo trasformare il ruolo della conoscenza. Possiamo essere umani.

Altri esempi sono Wikipedia (it.wikipedia.org/‎), OpenStreetMap (www.openstreetmap.it/‎), Flickr (www.flickr.com/‎)…

L’introduzione è presa dal libro ELOGIO AL DISORDINE di David Weinberger.

"Il mondo sta diventando sempre più disordinato, che vi piaccia o no. Leggete questo libro e capirete perchè ciò ci renderà più intelligenti.

Tumblr Artist

Emily Blincoe | on Tumblr (USA) 

Born, raised and based out of Austin, Texas, Emily Blincoe is a creative and passionate photographer who brings unique interactions into the things she photographs. Emily’s approach to capturing her photographs is spontaneous, fun and amusing. On one day, Emily could find herself focusing on a subject with a serious and reflective tone, and on the next, she could be involving friends to pose for one of her playful ideas. “I love to have a little fun in the way I take portraits, and if I can translate a little bit of my sense humor into a photo, I certainly will. Most of my friends and family no longer question my requests or motives. They are usually pretty quick to comply these days. It’s not unusual to hear me say something like, ‘I saw some cool flowers at the grocery store. I will be over in 10 minutes to put them in your beard.’ or ‘Hey, can you put this on your head and go sit over there?” (source: VSCO Cam™)

Weekend Hashtag Project: #WHPwhatmovesme

Weekend Hashtag Project is a series featuring designated themes & hashtags chosen by Instagram’s Community Team. For a chance to be featured on the Instagram blog, follow @instagram and look for a photo announcing the weekend’s project every Friday.

The goal this weekend is to take creative videos showing the things that help you get from place to place, whether it’s your plane, taxi, scooter or even your own two feet. Some tips to get you started:

  • Methods of transportation are intricate in their own ways. Try focusing on details such as motors and propellers to capture an up-close view of the machines that move you.
  • Voyages and trips are all about locations. Give your videos a sense of place by filming your surroundings as you move through them, be it the hustle and bustle of a busy train station, scenes from your jogging path or the landscape rushing by your window.
  • The story of any trip can be told through much more than just what gets you there. Think about how the landscapes you pass through and the people you travel with help complete your story.

PROJECT RULES: Please only add the #WHPwhatmovesme hashtag to videos taken over this weekend and only submit your own videos to the project. Any video taken then tagged over the weekend is eligible to be featured right here Monday morning!

Banksy graffiti in South Bronx, New York City.

Ghetto 4 Life.

This is a really powerful piece of graffiti. It shows how a lot of the graffiti that is being made in this day and age is by rich white kids trying to ge “hood” and “ghetto” when they really arent. Anything that is good and unique in our society is destroyed by rich white kids.

Chasing Light in Antelope Canyon

To see more photos and videos from Antelope Canyon, check out the Antelope Canyon, Upper Antelope Canyon and Lower Antelope Canyon location pages.

Tucked away along the northern border of Arizona lies Antelope Canyon, one of the most visited—and photographed—locations in the American Southwest. Located on Navajo land, the landform is technically classified as a slot canyon, or a narrow canyon that is significantly deeper than it is wide. Like all slot canyons, Antelope Canyon was formed by flash floods rushing through underground crevices. Over time, the waters eroded the rock into the smooth, flowing landform seen today.

Antelope Canyon is divided into two sections, upper and lower, known in the native Navajo language as Tsé bighánílíní (“the place where water runs through rocks”) and Hazdistazí (“spiral rock arches”), respectively. The Canyon’s narrow top opening restricts the amount of sunlight than can enter, but results in a few dazzling beams that make it to the canyon floor. These beams, along with the canyon’s intense red glow and flowing lines, have made Antelope Canyon especially appealing to those Instagrammers adventurous enough to make the trek.

I nuovi luoghi del lavoro decontestualizzato.

La città del ‘900 degli orari fissi è finita. Il nuovo modo di lavorare, crea sostenibilità perchè non serve spostarsi per andare a lavorare. 

In questo modo cambia la pianificazione, perchè non serve estendere fisicamente la città in periferia, ma bisogna decontestualizzarla.

Il lavoro legato alla produzione materiale rimane, ma c’è tutto un lavoro immateriale fatto di intelligenza e di conoscenza.

Conoscenza virtualizzata.
