ultrahip

The trip to London was truly inspiring, we visited the upcoming areas in Shoreditch such as the Spitalfield Market, Bricklane and Columbia Rd. The amount of young designers, types of global food, vintage, funny lasercut designs, vendors and shoppers was just incredible.

temporary use

NAI hosted a debate about temporary use, examples were presented by particpants of Atelier Tussentijd about Apeldoorn, CIBOGA in Groningen and Nu Hier from Rotterdam. The cases give different perspectives on temporary use however were all very idealistic.  

public art

De sculptures made by Tom Otterness (USA) on the seafront in Scheveningen are my favourites, how funny to come across similar figures in a subwaystation (14th Street–Eighth Avenue New York City Subway) called "Life underground", however this movie about the sculptures during the redevelopment on the seafront is excellent and funny!   (movie made by DPI)  http://www.youtube.com/user/gemeentedenhaag?feature=mhum#p/c/0A5E4A094EE2F6C6/65/0oozwwOwNDU

Other scrapbooks offer a lot of inspiration, however my own scrapbook (middle one) is getting thicker and thicker too..
