This website is half English, half Japanese so it might be difficult for some of you to explore this website... but CHECK OUT his very unique and creative drawings under [GALLERY] on the left side of the Home page.

lol, this is really an interesting porject, and I remembered that I did the same 3-d picture once like a few months ago. Those picture need unusual painting skills. It is hard, but is full of fun.

3-D painting has become very popular and this is definitely one of the great video demonstrating it!!!

A little bit entertainment. This recreation of 'Gangnam Style' always keeps me entertained and laughing. They incorporated a lot of scenery and places on U of O campus to illustrate the ducks and got a lot of people to join in and take pride in our school.

I agree with this! Even though this is not going on anymore I found it so entertaining to see Oregon and many other schools compete to get the best 'Gangnam Style' video. I liked how you were able to see the aspects of our school through this. Very funny way to showcase the beauty of our school.

This video is awesome! Whether people understood all Korean lyrics and the hidden meanings of the song or not, they made it really great. It reminds me of an idea that art (mainly focusing on entertainment in this case) does not have no boundaries at all.

OCCA, the Regional Arts Council for the Oregon coast, invites mid-career visual artists from Curry, Coos, Lincoln, Tillamook, Clatsop and the coastal school districts of Douglas and Lane counties to submit proposals for a two month show in the Coastal Oregon Visual Artists Showcase at the Newport Visual Arts Center. OCCA will help each artist create a video about them and their art that will be shown on a touch screen computer next to the Showcase and become part of the Coastal Artists Video Archive.

If you think of Red Rocks Park as just a beautiful place to see a concert, think again! Around you are 868 acres of deer, dinosaurs, pines and prairie, geological wonders and spectacular vistas. At 6,450 feet above sea level, Red Rocks Park is a unique transitional zone where the Great Plains meet the Rocky Mountains. The diverse environment allows visitors to see plants, birds and animals of both regions. Red Rocks Amphitheatre is a geological phenomenon - the only naturally-occurring, acoustically perfect amphitheatre in the world. From Sting and The Beatles, to opera stars and U2, every artist aspires to play on this magical, spiritual and emotional stage.

Dream of mine to attend a concert here. Have a lot of friends who have and say its the best concert venue in the United States. Beautiful scenery and great music, can't go wrong.

The vibrancy of the Mission District is due in large part the artists, art galleries, and arts-based non-profits that call it home. But the once-predominantly Latino community is in the midst of several large changes that will completely alter the vibe of the Mission.

From Nike's project, we can see that even though they have successfully sold their products to people. Nevertheless, when shoes got beat up, people usually just throw it away. Fortunately, Nike has collected shoes for reuse and build couple public facility. This is type of work that working with community and society, which we talked about during the lecture.

I think this is a great idea. I would love to know more about it. There is not much other information about it on the internet besides what is in the video. Does anyone know if Nike donates these courts or fields? That would be a great way to give back to the community.

I really like this a lot. This is good for Nike public relations wise and it is smart economically as well. Nike being a progressive company is a positive for everyone involved.

Here is the website from CNN.com, which provides tons of art works and performance. With these, it may allow us to explore more what we seek to define Art World.

This site is great! Found myself browsing for a while and enjoyed all of the different types of dance and art that it supplied. The range of style and background is entertaining and I was able to use this as inspiration for a possible art world.

This is very useful website to search and find the performances. Yet is it also reports news from a expand world narrative not just a art performance. It is definitely can help me to write the assignment next week to define an art world.

Wake Up With The World, an iPhone app by Pratt Institute MFA student Eric Rieper, can't solve the repetitive Pavlovian torture of being forced to wake up early every morning, but it can make the horrors of daily wake ups a more positive, communal experience. It's an alarm clock that syncs with other alarm clocks around the world, turning your phone into but one instrument in a global orchestra.

Thank you so much for sharing this information! Now, I can start my days with great music from all over the world!

It can be very useful app and the app creator is so clever. I'm downloading it right now! thank you for useful info

Burning Man is an annual event and a thriving year-round culture. The event takes place the week leading up to and including Labor Day, in Nevada's Black Rock Desert. The Burning Man organization (Black Rock City LLC) creates the infrastructure of Black Rock City, wherein attendees (or "participants") dedicate themselves to the spirit of community, art, self-expression, and self-reliance.

My chemistry teacher in high school goes to burning man every single year. One class period he dedicated the entire hour and a half class on telling us about burning man and showing us his pictures.

I would love to one day experience Burning Man! I have heard nothing but great things about other people's experiences about the music, art, and community it brings together.

Hop Scotch Spring Beer & Scotch Festival is the premier beer, Scotch, whiskey, and wine tasting experience benefiting the Fremont Chamber of Commerce's community grant programs. On April 18 and 19, indoors at Fremont Studios, Hop Scotch hosts the ultimate pop-up bar complete with tailor made tasting experiences certain to delight every guests' palate.

This sounds like a really fun time! Thanks for sharing. The next time I visit Seattle this time of year, I will definitely have to check this out.

I just came to Seattle to watch baseball tomorrow but sadly I think I miss the festival this time.. I should have come last weekend.

I have always been a dancer so the art world surrounding dance has always been one of a fascination for me. Oregon Ballet Theatre is really big in Portland where I am from and I grew up attending all of there shows, such as Swan Lake or The Nutcracker. They are preform the rendition of Swan Lake on the 26th of this month and I would highly recommend going!

Catch Divisi every Friday performing with On the Rocks and Mind the Gap from 3:45 - 5pm at the EMU Amphitheater! I sung in high school and always thought this form of music was extremely interesting. I saw that On the Rocks was mention and thought the Ladies should be as well!

Okay I am unsure if this qualifies as an art world or anything note worthy. I however thought it was fun and interesting. So I have always heard that animals could "create" art in various ways but i had never seen it. Through looking for another thing to post i stumbled upon this and thought id share! The link provided is to watch the oregon zoos elephants paint pictures that are largely better than what I could do. http://youtu.be/4KW5y7SmQq4

That is a really fun video, I think these paintings could reflect different characteristic of the elephant, and their emotion while they painting, it is really amazing.

Dancers across the world are communicating through movement, style, and sound. Without language, borders, or distance as barriers, a new lifestyle has emerged. Would love to see this in person.

"Once known as the Industrial Triangle-filled with railroad yards and timeworn turn-of-the-century warehouses-the Pearl District today is an award-winning, internationally recognized leader in urban renewal, culture and "LEED" certified buildings. As one of the most desired neighborhoods in the country to call your home, work space, or playground, the Pearl is clear validation that high-quality, inner-city communities can revive from the ashes of urban decay. Often considered the "gold standard" of live, work and play mixed-use space, the Pearl District is proof that inner-city living at its finest can rise from the ashes of urban decay."

Elizabeth Gilbert muses on the impossible things we expect from artists and geniuses - and shares the radical idea that, instead of the rare person "being" a genius, all of us "have" a genius. It's a funny, personal and surprisingly moving talk.
