I love how communities of people can come together to contribute something positive -- turning loss into survival. This clip shows how parents of road victims in Belgian did just that -- turning a dangerous road into a light filled new year's message.

 

Crazy, beautiful glasswork by Dutch designer Rogier Martens.

Old one, but still so good.

Reminded me of evenings spent staring up at the sky, long enough to imagine you can see it all pass by. Like this clip from NASA's pic of the day -- is it dawn or false dawn? Enjoy the time lapse and decide for yourself.

The romantic in me was a push over for this campaign by Tiffany & Co. with fashion blogger couple The Satorialist and Garance Dore. Website and iPhone app feature user generated stories, and places of romance. Press here for campaign site.

Latest exhibition by Ai Weiwei. 1200 bikes, no handle bars, no seats, creating the illusion of a maze like space filling the area 100 feet high.

Collected using Google’s Satellite View, by Jenny Odell -- parking lots, silos, landflls, waste ponds. "From this view, the lines that make up basketball courts and the scattered blue rectangles of swimming pools become like hieroglyphs that read: people were here" See the full collection here.

Happy

Merry

Joyeux
