a tribute to mj stockholm style

This is the official clip from Bounce & Friends. More than 300 dancers met at 15.30, got informed and then
learned the choreography in 30 min. Less then 1 hour later they performed it.

invisible dogs

without comments

The very latest from Improv Everywhere. Who’s a good poochie? Youuu areeee! Yes! Youuu are!

For our latest mission, over 2,000 people walked “invisible dogs” down the streets of Brooklyn on a Sunday afternoon. The leashes were on loan from the current owner of 51 Bergen Street, the factory space where the invisible dog toy was invented in the 1970s. Participants of all ages spread out from Red Hook to Brooklyn Heights, very seriously walking their very silly dogs.

google logo

without comments

The Google homepage is prime estate in the internet world, so whenever they decide to theme their logo, the world follows. I can only imagine that a spot on the Goggle homepage gives you immediate stardom. Just like the recent cropcircles outing. Treehugger has a great slideshow of cropcircle art that is amazing and beautiful to just ponder.

san serriffe

without comments

San Serriffe is a small republic located in the Indian Ocean consisting of several semi-colon-shaped islands. With Bodoni, the capital in the North and beautiful sandy stretches – the best found at Gill Sands – in the South. While many may consider San Serriffe to be a small semicolonial State, British newspaper The Guardian considered it big enough to publish a seven-page “special report” about San Serriffe. Big enough, in fact, to fool an entire Nation!
