The Art of Negative Space

The Art of Negative Space
L’artiste malaisien Tang Yau Hoong nous livre sa vision de l’espace dans sa série « The Art of Negative Space ». Sans délimitation réelle, ses illustrations confondent le plein et le vide, le ciel et la terre, donnant à voir non pas un mais des espaces qui se complètent et s’opposent au sein de chacune de ses créations.

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.

The Thirty-Six Dramatic Situations The Thirty-Six Dramatic Situations is a descriptive list which was created by Georges Polti to categorize every dramatic situation that might occur in a story or performance. To do this Polti analyzed classical Greek texts, plus classical and contemporaneous French works. He also analyzed a handful of non-French authors. Publication history[edit] “Gozzi maintained that there can be but thirty-six tragic situations. This list was published in a book of the same name, which contains extended explanations and examples. The list is popularized as an aid for writers, but it is also used by dramatists, storytellers and many others. The 36 situations[edit] Each situation is stated, then followed by the necessary elements for each situation and a brief description. See also[edit] References[edit] External links[edit]

This Awesome Urn Will Turn You into a Tree After You Die You don't find many designers working in the funeral business thinking about more creative ways for you to leave this world (and maybe they should be). However, the product designer Gerard Moline has combined the romantic notion of life after death with an eco solution to the dirty business of the actual, you know, transition. His Bios Urn is a biodegradable urn made from coconut shell, compacted peat and cellulose and inside it contains the seed of a tree. Once your remains have been placed into the urn, it can be planted and then the seed germinates and begins to grow. You even have the choice to pick the type of plant you would like to become, depending on what kind of planting space you prefer. I, personally, would much rather leave behind a tree than a tombstone. Related Content If You Liked the 'Bios Urn,' You'll Love 'The Spirit Tree' Daniel Honan Managing Editor, Big Think
