Shape


Books and the ideas contained within them are powerful. So is CNC technology, it seems.

See


What did Warhol see in the world? Polaroids can be seen as the eyes of an artist - they can be really everyday objects but it transcends into the minds of the artist to someday become inspiration or perhaps subject matter. The spontaneity of the shots lend a classic quality, unlike the endless tweaking as per usual photography.

See some more of Warhol's polaroids, currently displayed at the UC Berkeley Art Museum.

Remake




This rehash of Rihanna is possibly the best thing that's happened to the song and the dancing is just extraordinary. Seems inspired by the Roaring Twenties.

Choreography and dancing by Keone Madrid and Mari Martin. Song performed by James Cullum.

Country

He who loves not his country can love nothing.

Having had a quick look at my blog statistics (which I've never looked into before), I was surprised to see a lot more info than I expected. Although it felt a bit like Facebook treasuring away bits of your life into it's enormous database, I found it quite useful to see the readership on my blog.

Blogging is yet still a very one sided medium in the way that really there is little two-way interactions, discussions and debate in a way which actually fosters it. The image above shows the distribution of readers' countries for the last month. A good representation from Belgium and Germany. I see some people I actually know reading from Japan and Canada (shout out to Cocomino and tmasoo!), and of course, New Zealand. I guess readers from the USA is just a default net thing?

Thanks for all your support, I never knew this blog reached so far beyond my networks. I'd really like it if you leave a comment below and let me know where you are and why you're interested in Creative Collision.  I really enjoy comments - those who leave them know who they are - and the two way interaction is just the beginning!

Layered



Nobuhiro Nakanishi's Layered Drawings series attempts to capture the subtle changes that occur with passing time. I've seen something like this before - laser cut panels of clear acrylic overlaid, but never at this scale or with the eerie floating composition. It's alike to something in a digital space or augmented reality which seems to be a new fad these days with smartphones.
