Sutra - Sidi Larbi & Antony Gormley with Monks from the Shaolin Temple: If overlaying of photographs is flattening the 4th dimension into 2 dimensions, this choreography is an attempt to flatten the 5th dimension into 4.

The synchronicity of the monks is, of course, flawless.

It’s not so impossible, eh?

Nefertiti by Theo Kamecke: This is some real circuit board sculpture here, not just crap that sticks an old motherboard on and call it done.

Mr. November, live at Radio City Music Hall in June 2010, by The National: That’s how Matt Berninger 0WN3D Radio City last night. The whole crowd went insane when he climbed all the way to the balcony, like we just elected another new president.
