The Future Is Here - Dubai

i realize i've uploaded a lot of videos from current lately and i wasn't planning on doing it again until i came across this and knew i had to share it. i've been aware of Dubai for a while now. always reading crazy stories about the developments there. always hearing of the wealth. but i really enjoyed this video documentary. i hope you do also.

"The future is here....and I don't know how I feel about it."

how do you feel about it? amazing advances in engineering, human achievements? or completely disgusting display of wealth and egos?

Earth Art...Literally.

There's an exhibit of site-specific earth art installations going on at the Royal Botanical Gardens in Ontario, Canada. Artists from all over the world have come to install unique environmental pieces, which will be on view until October 13. There are sod ramps, floating sculptures, and other Andy Goldsworthy-esque pieces. There's also a tumblog of installation photos, which shows how some of the pieces were constructed and installed.
