sound waves

what a great ad

3M - Wave Sound from Grey Digital on Vimeo.

"This is a graphic film, where we use the skylines of large cities in the world, and sounds related to each one of them. Each sound triggered a building skyline simulating waves sound. After the product is revealed the wave sound turns off. 

The 3M headphones works like a 'ears protector'. How it works? With the best noise cancelling in the market."

Lunch in Cannes

If you were in Cannes and still hungry, and then there's one place that you have to visit to solve the second problem.
I do not often share my addresses as I still want to have a free table for myself  out there but since my blog is read by friends, I'll be more generous with advice.
So the first advice throughout the whole blog is:
Lunch "not on the beach" in Cannes that is worth being not on the beach.
Da Laura is a small italian restaurand on the 2 parallel street to Croisette in Cannes. You would not stumble upon it unless you go to Galerie Lafayette (which is not worth going to in Cannes).
So the lunch place has an authentic italian cuisine. They serve a little snack with pecorino, salami and bread sticks before you even order that whets the appetite even more. The menu is in italian but easy to understand as it is food language... tomatoes with bufala or burata, carpaccio, fresh raviolis, gnoccis, fresh pasta and don't forget to leave space for homemade desserts  that arrive on a big plateau for you to choose one.  The food is as good as in a recommended family resto in Italy. And Laura, the owner is always beautiful with her red lipstick and welcoming the guests with her smile.

Da Laura

CUBA LINDA

I love this photograph of Linda Evangelista by Stephen Meisel for Vogue Italia 1989 , called Cuba.

So emotional and strong.  Although I would prefer him to be taller than her, or that would be too obvious then?

Made it my fb profile pic. 

Guru Groove

An upcoming Russian band, GURU GROOVE FOUNDATION, who I know nothing about except that I love their music and this song in particular and that their first album  coming out soon.
I just dream that they will have a concert in Moscow in August when I am there...

Flying breakfast

Did you ever wonder how beautiful a breakfast can be ?
I ve just seen this great video of a flying breakfast, its called Breakfast Interrupted, made by http://www.brutonstroube.com/

I love those slow movement that only a special camera can catch. The honey running slowly down the pancakes,  the hot steam from the coffee, the eggs crashing and then jumping up one last time...
The food just flew up , but it seemed that at that moment an invisible family with 3 little children came to enjoy their breakfast and did a total mess on the table)

Very artistic, brilliantly presented. I was wondering how was it shot when I found the behind the scenes video: http://vimeo.com/23692037

Russian Vintage

Screen shot from Russian legendary movie of 1967 , Kavkazskaya Plennica where I have spotted some color blocking trend and retro black and white swimming suit so in fashion nowadays ... And what is amazing that it was in a country so closed for the western culture at that time...

Copier-coller

I ve been to Japan in 2009 and have seen there a lot of mouse mats with this wave print. Ever since I saw it (on a mouse mat that i bought)  I really like it. Its beautiful and again my favourite color mix can be noticed.

Recently I came across the photo from Christian  Dior exhibition that takes place in Pushkin museum in Moscow now. I was suprised to see that Dior was also inspired or better say -was in love with this painting so much that he copy-pasted it on a silk off white dress of his creation.

By the way copier-coller (copy-paste) is my new learned word from last week. I m glad it really stays in my head since more than a week already.

Back to the wave.

In fact its nice to know more about paintings. There is always a little story or a bio behind it. And there is a very useful wikipedia, that tells us that this painting is actually called The Great Wave off Kanagawa 

神奈川沖浪裏 (this looks nice no?) by artist Hokusai. READ more about it.

And good news is that i might see a live copy of it soon. That will be my mission. Anywhere you go you have to have a mission.
