Life Lessons:
“Enjoy every bite of food, walk at a slow pace and take in your surroundings, let the other person finish their side of the conversation while you listen attentively, and stop in the middle of your day, close your eyes or look at nature and become aware of your breathing.” - This

Sculptures, Tara Donovan
“Donovan’s work uses everyday manufactured materials such as Scotch tape, Styrofoam cups, and drinking straws to create large scale sculptures that often have a biomorphic quality.” “Her sculptures must be assembled and disassembled carefully, which sometimes involves an extremely tedious process.

Beach House Q - Peru
“Challenging the stillness of the surroundings, Casa Q materializes the dreams of a young couple in a “floating volume” which embodies the spaces for a future family. The volume is supported by circular columns placed by intuition, as a dance, instead of forcibly in a grid.” “The rest of the house – guest rooms, kitchen and services – are tastefully secluded at the back of the...

Snow White Live Action?
dolceandvagina:
Two Snow White films to be released around the same time…
One is directed by Rupert Sanders (who I think this is his first full feature film) Who seems to be taking a darker gritty approach
and the other is directed by Tarsem Singh (The Fall, Immortals, and The Cell). Who is probably taking a more surreal approach
INTERESTING…
Indeed! Can’t wait to see these pan...

Currently Loving: Jamie Caliri
Absolutely loving Jamie Caliri’s wonderful world of motion and craft. A perfect merger of mood in lighting, shape and motion. Definitely captured the depressing and dark mood of the story without the use of dialogue.

I loved Colleen Atwood’s Costume design and the general set for this movie.

Magic
Glen Keane: Music brings an enormous amount of freedom in storytelling. You can advance a story in fun ways and also in extremely emotional, dramatic ways. Howard Ashman used to say, when you have tried to say something through acting, through dialogue, in every way you possibly can and there is nothing left to do to communicate those feelings, your character has to sing. And there is something...
