The urban river was created by Henk Hofstra in Drachten, The Netherlands and shows how mind blowing public art can be. The blue road installation features about 1000 metres of road painted blue and the phrase ‘Water is Life’ written in an eight metre high letters across it. This project took 4000 litres of paint and costed 75,000 Euros.

"I lived on the Moon" is a animation inspired by the Sound Track "I lived on the Moon" of the Kwoon's Albumn "Tales and Dreams". The video is rad and the music is really cool as well.

Here is a great list of non-MySpace looking MySpace layouts. Some are really clean, some are calling out the fact that MySpace layouts usually look terrible. Goes to show you that given a web2.0 platform, you can really go in any direction you want.

Here is a really cool video brought to you my Pass It On, a collaborative video project were different motion graphics houses and animators create scenes for a singular movie with a singular theme. Its really cool to see how each artist interprets the project.

Wow, these make Ugly Dolls look lame. If I ever need to buy toys for kids, this is what they are getting....except I don't see how to purchase these. If anyone figures out if these are for sale and where to buy them, please comment.

Here is a little app that lets you sort flickr images by color.

Maybe you need to find images in all one color for a colage, well this little sucker can help.

The interface is lame, but the idea cool. Check it out.
