Day 365 - One year of inspiring days!

Yes, I did it.

One year,
365 days,
each day
a post that inspired me.

And that
may be
inspired you too!

And now...
What to do?

Stop,
or
continue
this blog.

Not each day,
but may be
each week.

I'll think
about it,
and let you
know!

Here, in the Netherlands, we have to wait 10 more hours to celebrate the start of 2014. Traditionally, we celebrate it with firework, champaign and so-called "oliebollen" (Dutch pastry).

Happy New Year to all of you. Wish you the best!

Day 361 - Amsterdam Light Festival - illuminated arch at the Rijksmuseum

The Amsterdam Light Festival started on December 6, and can be seen until January 19.

For 50 days, the historical center of Amsterdam will present a unique decor. This year's theme is "Building with Light".  It consists of 30 light sculptures and projections from international artists.

Unfortunately, I have not been able to visit the festival yet, but I will do so next week.

Right now I would like to share one project with you: light battle by venivdimultiplex. This artwork illuminates the passage under the Rijksmuseum. Passengers are invited to take place on an a bicycle and to generate energy and light by pedaling.

Below you see a photo of this interactive artwork.

Day 360 - Product design: landscape carpets

Roosmarijn Pallandt, Dutch designer, designs wonderful carpets.
The starting point for her design are Google Earth photo's.

Pallandt herself says:
"Starting from a bird's eye perspective on a landscape and it's climate, RUGS zoom in to the pixel of a computer scree and results in carpets of 1 x 1 meter; catching a piece of the planet into a rug on your floor."

Day 359 - Fashion design: Weimaraners modeling in fotoshoot Acne

I love Weimaraners so much...  I have one myself. She is 8 years young and we call her 'Flo'.

On youtube I saw the video 'Acne, Behind the scenes' with William Wegman (photographer). In this video we see how Wegman does a fotoshoot for Acne. Instead of using human models, he uses Weimaraners. I love this video, enjoy!
