Damn all those people who don't lose control - W magazine films

Cuando veo pequeñas películas así siento que todo tiene sentido. A veces cuando veo otros videos por mucho tiempo temo que no hay nada que se vea como el interior de mi cabeza, aunque sea ligeramente. Pero luago veo algo así y me siento reafirmada y desaparece mi necesidad de volverme a hacer la terrible pregunta ¿Habiendo tantas épocas porque escogemos desparecerlas? Y no hablo de nostalgia y cosas retro, hablo de agarrar una cámara por primera vez y aprender a usarla sin ver que están tomando los demás.

The Stars (are out tonight)

 

 

Les comparto el nuevo video de David Bowie, The Stars (are out tonight). Les recomiendo mucho su disco completo "The Next Day", para este video escogió una de mis canciones favoritas y aparece acompañado por la genial Tilda Swinton, y por la modelo Saskia de Brauw que aparece de un hombre joven  y el modelo Andrej Pejic que sale disfrazado de chica.

Es dirigido por Floria Sigismundi con la que Bowie ya había trabajado en otros dos videos Little Wonder y Dead Man Walking

El editor de estilo fue Jerry Stafford que hizo un gran trabajo, al principio enseña a Bowie con un abrigo de Alexander McQueen y una camisa de Lanvin y a Swinton la viste con piezas de Raf Simons para Jil Sander, Dior y un abrigo de Rick Owens. Y al final del video los muestra en sacos plateados  idénticos de Saint Laurent por Hedi Slimane. 

David Bowie para mi buena suerte está en todos lados ultimamente y todos los que esten y vayan a pasar por Londres no pueden perderse la exposición de Bowie en el Victoria & Albert's museum donde hay vestuario, fotos y letras escritas a mano nunca antes vistas. Me da emoción sólo de pensarlo.

Clever youtube channels, part I

She made this drawing for the smarter every day cat video, down below, and here is the process. I think it's amazing:


Este post no está en español porque los videos sólo estan en inglés :/ Pero les recomiendo mucho que vean aunque sea el de los gatitos y como giran. Está abajo. 


 Just like Mike from the PBS idea youtube channel, mentioned in one of his videos, youtube channels aren't only for minecraft and make-up lovers. That being said, I spend a good part of my everyday life watching make-up (and fashion, and music) videos, I love them. But since I found PBS idea's channel (if you haven't seen it click here), I've realized how much I enjoy watching other youtube channels as well. Channels that have nothing to do with beauty. 
To be honest I believe youtube is a really great place to learn new things, and that was my initial appeal towards make-up videos, I didn't know anything about make-up, but now, I'm pretty familiar with it.

The first video I ever watched from PBS idea, was a possible explanation to the question 'why do so many adults love Adventure Time?', I don't want to earn hate in my first posts - if anyone ever reads them -  but I have to say, I do not  love Adventure Time, I don't hate it either, I've just seen a few episodes but it hasn't made me want to go back and watch more to be honest. I am a big fan of cartoons and animations though, and if you put 'animation' and 'nostalgia' in the same sentence, what comes to my mind is actually Studio Ghibli and the works of Hayao Miyazaki.
 But going back to the channel (http://www.youtube.com/pbsideachannel), what that video did do, was make me want to see the rest of the 'ideas'. If you want to know what this channel is about, they describe themselves as a PBS show that examines the connections between pop culture, technology and art. I don't agree with many of their theories - specifically the art related ones - but I enjoy hearing them, a lot, and Mike, the host, is smart, has a pleasant voice and a cute beard.

 I love this video, I agree with most of what he says about genres (I argue with my boyfriend about genres all the time), but I recommend the rest of his videos as well.

I was through pbs idea channel that I found the Smarter Every Day channel, and (obviously) loved the high speed flipping cats video. The image on top was made for that video. If you browse through the rest of the channel,  you can find a lot of interesting stuff, and even though I don't know anything about physics or math, I enjoyed them, they are meant for the general public, and I think most people would do too (if only for the slow motion cat action :p).

 

Maybe this videos are super popular and I don't even know. I'm curious as to what youtube channels other people follow.
