I have discovered a world of wonders in my early morning coffee. Sometimes I see the Milky Way or super nova's and sometimes even the whole universe.

Brussels based graffiti artist Denis Meyers transformed the old Solvay building in the city centre of Brussels into his personal spray paint diary. With black paint only he draws and writes his intimite life story on the Solvay walls. To fill 200,000 square feet of walls, staircases, doors, floors and ceilings with paintings and text he needed six months of solitude and 2000 cans of black spray paint. The entire building - and thus his work of art too - was demolished in May 2016.

his video shows the climbing (or rather descending) of the sacred volcano Gunung Agung, the holiest mountain in Bali, Indonesia.

The highest point of this stratovolcano is 3142 m (or 9583 ft)

According to the Balinese Gunung Agung is a replica of Mount Meru, the central axis of the universe.

The most important temple on Bali - Pura Besakih - is located on the slopes of the mountain. Therefore the mountain may not be climbed on holy days.

Gunung Agung is an active volcano and last erupted in 1963-1964. The mountain has a large and very deep crater which occasionally belches smoke and ash. From a distance, the mountain appears to be perfectly conical, despite the existence of the large crater.

From the peak of the mountain, it is possible to see the peak of Mount Rinjani on the island of Lombok, although both mountains are most often covered in clouds.

Inside Out is a video about a rather daring collection of portraits of eight women and men. All have become victims of time and death a long time ago. With each portrait I try to show the inner beauty that you can find inside all of us. At first glance you might think these photographs are horrid, but as you look longer and past the superficial horror, you may discover the endless layers of fragile imperfections and that is exactly what makes these photographs so pure and beautiful.

BioArt or Bio Art explores the bounderies between biological processes and tissues and art. The work featured in this video is from the dutch artist Martin uit den Bogaard. By using dead animals sealed inside glass coffins the artist gives us a look at the slow process of decay. Electrodes connected  to the decaying cadavers transmit signals to electronic equipment that translate the signals to everchanging sounds and graphics on computer screens.
