The Olympic Park will create a green backdrop for the Games and a new green space after 2012 for people and wildlife living in and around the area to enjoy. The Park is being designed by the EDAW Consortium (including EDAW and Buro Happold), working with Arup and WS Atkins.

Kazunori Asada used visual filters to see how the paintings looked to the colorblind. The experiment produced some interesting results and musings: Was van Gogh partially color vision deficiency (anomalous trichromat)? Perhaps using a strong color vision deficiency (dichromat) simulation was the wrong approach. How about carrying out the simulation by removing the middle portion of normal color vision, maybe then I could see van Gogh's pictures in a better light? The color choices for van Gogh's popular paintings seem less out there with the filters. The greens in the sky of Starry Night, for example turn to yellows.

A very large selection of mass produced and hand-made cover designs for cassette tapes.

Very old-fashioned with limited palettes of earth colours, which is good! :P

This great tool alone is good enough for me to love my Nokia 5230.

Honestly, I'm not a guy into overmuch, though I alaways admire the idea and labour of creating art. As for geuclide's works, THANKS GOD he knows the boundary and jumps out of the stereotypes skillfully and stylishly. I can pull out a whole package of adjectives to describe his works, one of them is MARVELOUS. As you can see on the left, his abstract appear like an abstract landscape painting, with soft, appealing color schemes, plenty of space around and a bit of darker doodle that brings extra moves and delightful surprise to the image, which basically makes me wanna pick up the phone immediately and ask him how much he would like to sell it. :O) If you can' agree my viewpoint more, go check out his humblevoice gallery, for he has lots of things to feast your hungry eyes.

I love stumbing upon something beyond my expectation. Today I checked out my account on terminus1525.ca, found a name listed under Recent Visitors, and I can't help but clicked on the link. That's when I was drawn to the abyss of imagination of Jean-Félix. This artist created something that is soft, solid, organic, futurist and dynamic. The way he plays with composition and colors are really incredible for a guy who is only 26. Do pay attention to his details - that's how you feel the power of his ART.
