Photographer Captures An Underwater Dance Of Colors The shapes displayed in Luka Klikovac’s work look like colored smoke, or maybe strange deep-sea creatures, but they’re actually mixtures of colored and black liquids immersed in water. The Serbian photographer’s photo series is called Demersal and was based on the unique motions resulting from the combination of fluids. To create this psychedelic effect, the photographer used nothing but his camera and lights capable of showing the dance of fluid shapes captured by his lenses. No digital editing resources were used afterwards, so what you see in the images are actually the precise moments when the two elements were combined. Klikovac said that the goal of his work is to create images that allow people to escape from their daily routine and that his underwater shapes should be interpreted like the Rorschach inkblot test. What do you see in them?
Фотоблоги El síndrome de Koro: robo de genitales Recientemente, la antropóloga Louisa Lombard, de la Universidad de California en Berkeley (EE.UU.), describe un caso curioso que vio durante su visita a un pequeño pueblo de la República Centroafricana, que involucra a dos hombres que afirmaban que su pene había sido robado. Así mismo. Parece que, un día antes, un viajero había visitado la ciudad y le había dado la mano a un vendedor de té, que inmediatamente dijo haber sentido una descarga eléctrica, y que a su vez hizo que su pene se encogiera. Él gritó al instante del acontecimiento, reuniendo a una multitud, entre la que se encontraba un segundo hombre que dijo que lo mismo había sucedido con él. Usted y yo estamos pensando lo mismo: “esto es imposible”, o “esto es una broma”. Pero no lo es. En este síndrome, las víctimas (en su mayoría hombres, pero puede ocurrir en mujeres) llegan a creer que sus genitales se están encogiendo o retrayéndose hacia el interior de su cuerpo.

com - David Stoupakis Presentation Born David Michael Stoupakis on the 26th of July, 1974, in Brighton, Massachusetts, to Greek-Italian, first generation American construction foreman George Stoupakis and his Cape-Briton Island Nova Scotia wife Anne, a hard working woman to say the least at everything she does. Both of them being artists themselves they would go on to push and encourage David to become an Artist. In 1992 David gave the Art Institute of Boston a one year try and quickly found that being schooled was not for him. In 1993 he began his road to developing himself and became a self-taught Artist. David lives and works in New York with Aprella and their lovely rescued cat. Categories Illustration > Painting 173 Artists in this category Sample Images Comments

The evolving role of the Oxford English Dictionary ©Thom Atkinson The ‘OED’ has had its own website since 2000; some of the old slips, featuring definitions and citations, from the dictionary’s archive Look for a topical expression in the Oxford English Dictionary and you may find it is older than you think. “Phone-hacking”, for example, was first used in the early 1980s. Words need a bit of a track record to make it into the OED. The OED, which this month experiences a rare change in leadership, is different from other English dictionaries. Lexicography, unlike journalism, is a field in which deadline extensions can occasionally be justified. Proffitt arrived at the OED in 1989, when the lexicographers did not have computers on their desks and new definitions were written up by hand. Oxford University Press (OUP), the home of the Oxford English Dictionary (OED) offices©Thom Atkinson Most significant of the changes made under John Simpson, chief editor from 1993 until his retirement last month, was the launch of the OED website in 2000.
Metamorphosis | theddi Metamorphosis is a concept about the unlimited transformations of human body. Just like a chameleon, it’s fitting, just like a virus, it’s mutating, just like a personality, it’s changing. Something new is about to birth, a metamorphosis, an organic complexity. Painting by Felipe Achondo Painter Felipe Achondo specialized in abstract realism paintings with great emphasis in the human figure and interiors. Further he has been in a constant research and development of figurative oil painting technics, which are in contrast to classic realism, where the work of realism is expressed in the whole aspects of painting, leaving ‘imperfections or mistakes’ on purpose as an essential part of the piece. ‘The main thematic that I am actually working on situates the human figure in empty spaces and interiors, mixing the thematic of 2010 with my portraits of 2012 to 2013′, the artist explains.
