StumbleUpon is a discovery engine (a form of web search engine) that finds and recommends web content to its users. Its features allow users to discover and rate Web pages, photos, and videos that are personalized to their tastes and interests using peer-sourcing and social-networking principles. I use StumbleUpon to bookmark creative or inspiring websites and to explore other art forms.

I like this StumbleUpon! I found the coolest page that shows how to fold a square of fabric into 12 or so different styles of sack- er wrap. I like the wine bag :)

I love using stumbleupon as another resource for viewing and reading about different art, music, activities, and other creative art sectors. I like how you can narrow down your searches to your specific interests.

This link shows how these kids stir up life every week sneaking into classrooms and drawing pictures that show how they live life.

One of my favorite posts on here haha

Die Antwoord is a South African group that consists of performers Ninja, Yo-Landi Vi$$er, and DJ Hi-Tek. I've never been to one of their concerts, but I've heard great things. According to everyone I've talked to about the group, their performances have been the most insane anyone has ever seen. Their concert is this Saturday at the Cuthbert Amphitheatre!! I strongly recommend attending this event!

I saw this website earlier in the year, but remembered it and wanted to share it with the class. Bryan Saunders decided one day that he wanted to create at least one self portrait everyday for the rest of his life, and so far he has completed over 8,000 of them. On his website he has created six different sections for his portraits based on similar themes, so pick a theme and prepare to be wow-ed.

I was looking at upcoming events provided by the Hult Center's website because my roommate recently danced at a show there. I really liked the venue, and while browsing I stumbled upon this Art Walk that will take place in the beginning of June. It looks really interesting and fun!

The Chinese restaurateur Zhang Lan, who was in Hong Kong this week, bought Andy Warhol's Little Electric Chair, 1965, for $10.5million

We see this piece of art being copied and printed off in mass amounts but I did not know that the original piece was worth that much. It is unbelievable that one piece of work can be worth 10.5 million dollars.

I still have some limited-edition bottles of Perrier inspired by Andy Warhol, but I do not know the relationship between the artist and the company of Perrier
