Running with fins

That's one of those funny things on Google Maps.

Some time ago (before they blurred it)  you could see more of those two guys sitting by a street in Norway, dressed in scuba-diving equipment.. and then running after the Google Maps camera-car.

Even though the original view is now hidden, when you play around the map, you can still see some pictures of the original Google Maps street view.

I'm back to the Internet

After getting some reasonable time off the Internet, due to returning home, I am back to posting things here.

This first after-vacation publication is about a nice facebook page. It is called Urban Art in Bulgaria and has a lot to offer.

Despite the name of the page, there are pictures of street art stuff from other countries too. You will find some of the posts in Bulgarian..., but, hey, images speak the Universal language.

Go check the page and bring some sunshine to your soul. :)

Comfort taken to a new level

This is a bus stop in Aarhus.
No, no, they don't normally look this way.
That's just a great symbiosis between a Scandinavian practice (to leave your old furniture on the street, where it gets collected either by furnitureless students, or by a garbage company - whichever finds it first) and some lazy genius' mind.
Hooray for creativity born by laziness!

Weekend Tribune, issue: 12 May '12

Today Weekend Tribune is offering you to spend some of your internet-browsing time on the page of Trash Lovers Crew.

They are Bulgarian guys who have decided to use trash on the streets as a base for their art. Click on the link above and see how they are "Making it pretty for garbage men since 2009".

 

Red light (district)

On streets with heavy traffic, traffic lights are a must.

Faces

Next time you visit a new place, pay attention to its street art. It is just as important for your cultural enrichment as all those museums and popular sightseeing spots you will see.

06.April, Note:
By chance I just bumped into this. It turns out that their author is the same as the author of the last one above. :)

There's always an exit

..and sometimes it sounds better than the original option.
