Stephen Wiltshire draws manhattan skyline from memory

How freaking amazing is this?! British artist Stephen Wiltshire is at present time attempting to draw the manhattan skyline from memory. He began this monday october 26th and the drawing is expected to be complete by friday. You can follow his progress through live webcam here.

Stephen Wiltshire was diagnosed with autism at the age of three and he has an unusually powerful photographic memory. He can look at the subject of his drawing once and reproduce it accurately with photographic detail, down to the exact number of columns or windows on a building.

Fever Ray – Stranger Than Kindness

I’m madly in love with the dark and mysterious universe of the swedish electro-artist Fever Ray. At the moment I just can’t seem to get enough of her.

And now she’s has just releashed a new video for her cover of Nick Cave’s ‘Stranger Than Kindness’. The video is directed by Andreas Nilsson and as usual the look and feel of the video is so so dark og almost terrifying.

If you have missed some of her previous videos, you MUST see at least these two: ‘When I Grow Up‘ And ‘If I Had A Heart‘. I especially have a little gold star in my heart for the last video, as it is my ever lovely sister Sofie Friis Borup, who has done the visual effects on this video. Isn’t it beautiful?

Rellana Wool

Hahaha … how funny is this packaging design for Rellana Wool? And why haven’t anybody thought of this before? The only ‘but’ could be, that I don’t think men are the primary target for this kind of product. But hey, it made me look!
