Vinni Puh!

Check out this episode of Winnie the Pooh from Soviet Russia. It's all so Kandinsky-like. And as Pooh often does, asks some deep philosophical questions... Totally trippy!

Scupturific!

Here is a collection of some of my favorite kinetic / musical sculptures!



A Singing wind tree!


Moving floating balls at the BMW museum (Keith should recognize this).

Andy Goldsworthy

One of my favorite artists. A nature-loving Scot who creates beautiful patterns using things he finds around him. Rocks, leaves, sticks, and ice.

Look through lots of pictures here: Google Image

One of my favorites is a 'sculpture' where he just splayed out on the ground before a light rain:

La Roux - Bulletproof



A fabulous and trippy music video by La Roux. I love the hair.
