The Overture
Incredible anamorphic artwork covering almost 50 buildings
Created by street artist eL Seed in Cairo, this script lettering aligns when viewed from a point on the Moqattam Mountain. Designed for the community of Zaraeeb, the Arabic script is in a style the artist calls ‘Calligrafitti’:
“Anyone who wants to see the sunlight clearly needs to wipe his eye first.” ‘إن أراد أحد أن يبصر نور الشمس، فإن عليه أن يمسح عينيه’
“Zaraeeb – Moqattam Mountain – EgyptIn my new project ‘Perception’ I am questioning the level of judgment and misconception society can unconsciously have upon a community based on their differences. In the neighborhood of Manshiyat Nasr in Cairo, the Coptic community of Zaraeeb collects the trash of the city for decades and developed the most efficient and highly profitable recycling system on a global level. Still, the place is perceived as dirty, marginalised and segregated. To bring light on this community, with my team and the help of the local community, I created an anamorphic piece that covers almost 50 buildings only visible from a certain point of the Moqattam Mountain. The piece of art uses the words of Saint Athanasius of Alexandria, a Coptic Bishop from the 3rd century.”
'Levitation' is a collaborative performance by Sila Sveta and Anna Abalikhina shown on the TV show 'Big Ballet'. All visuals were rendered in real time without any post production. Kultura Channel broadcast the second season of the show in winter 2016 in partnership with Sila Sveta. In addition to the technical and creative supervision, we staged 2 out of 7 single performances.
Do yourself a favor and watch this.
Technology works onstage when it’s seamlessly integrated. It shouldn’t be an add-on.

Electronic Superhighway, a new exhibit at London’s Whitechapel Gallery, celebrates new technology while simultaneously questioning it.
The exhibit is arranged anti-chronologically, so stepping into the first gallery space reveals a visual cacophony of contemporary artwork. This is art in 2016: almost impossible to separate from digital technology. As you proceed through the exhibit it traces the impact of computers and the Internet on art over time. Artifacts and footage from the 1966 festival 9 Evenings: Theatre and Engineering concludes your trip back through time in a quieter space.
Check out more photos and read about the exhibit.

Families
You are born into a genetic family. A function of reproduction, cell growth, nurture, siblings. I wish for all of you a loving family.
Then there is the family you make in life. The people you meet and love, who you laugh and cry with, forming bonds of common interests. Pain, joy, hurt, revival, rebirth: all are part of your human family, the family you made, the family you chose.
We will travel far, live and love and hurt and rejoice.
In the end, you will know your true family, no matter how far flung you become. In the end you will know them, for they will be there with you.

"Here is a one of three projects from a practical assessment my students produced on Friday. A projection mapping of 560+ drumsticks. They had 11 days to design, create and deliver an original concept with an hour in space setup time and an hour to show the production to a live audience, film it and get out." - Shannon Harvey, educator at Backstage Academy

Steal Like An Artist.
You don’t need to be a genius, you just need to be yourself. That’s the message from Austin Kleon, a young writer and artist who knows that creativity is everywhere, creativity is for everyone. A manifesto for the digital age, Steal Like an Artist is a guide whose positive message, graphic look and illustrations, exercises, and examples will put readers directly in touch with their artistic side. When Mr. Kleon was asked to address college students in upstate New York, he shaped his speech around the ten things he wished someone had told him when he was starting out. The talk went viral, and its author dug deeper into his own ideas to create Steal Like an Artist, the book. The result is inspiring, hip, original, practical, and entertaining. And filled with new truths about creativity: Nothing is original, so embrace influence, col- lect ideas, and remix and re-imagine to discover your own path. Follow your interests wherever they take you. Stay smart, stay out of debt, and risk being boring—the creative you will need to make room to be wild and daring in your imagination.
