Enlightened: a video installation by Katalin Tesch
I’ve been always fascinated by the way our senses work and how they deceive our mind sometimes. As an experiment, I wanted to confuse the visitors of the gallery space and mix reality with illusory images. By projecting artificial shadows onto the windows, visitors could become part of the projected image, since their shadows appeared to be no different from those in the movie. I used the windows as screens to connect the interior to the outside world.

Brilliant animation by Jean-Patrice Blanc
I first saw this short movie of Jean-Patrice Blanc at the Holland Animation Film Festival last year, and I have watched it many times since. Blanc picked a complex music track and transcribed it into a basic, yet convincing graphic language. Sound and image are in such an incredible harmony. I love every frame of it.
I just found this awesome website with numerous medieval drawings of animals. Bestiaries, illustrated collections of beasts, used to be very popular in the Middle Ages. However, usually artists were never able to observe the animals themselves, so their drawings were based only on written description.
City for Birds: an installation by Tibor Árki and Gergely Kovács
City for Birds is what it sounds like: an artificial city model built on a giant plane tree made by two artists, Tibor Árki and Gergely Kovács, in Miskolc, a city in Hungary. The witty installation includes blockhouses, various shops, beauty salons, a prison and other characteristic types of buildings, all in bird scale. Among the buildings, the artists also placed fake advertisements, addressed to birds, as a critique of urban existence in the 21st century. Read more

Athens, Georgia art rockers Circulatory System have delivered an extraordinary 46-minute album sculpted from five years worth of accumulated sonic experimentation. Signal Morning ricochets across every raw nerve from the poppiest of impulses to the edge of ostensible sanity, without revealing a single cut corner or uninspired change.
