this makes my heart ache

Silverstein always has been, and always will be my favorite poet because he doesn’t even need words in his poem to make people open their eyes.

I know something beautiful can be made Out of the broken, the splintered, the frayed.

Graphic design duo 25th Century composed of Lucas Ighile and Ayla El-Moussa, latest project showcases the movement and force of nature. Titled Formless, each animation displays a different terrain in Mother Nature, from the effervescence beauty of water to the desert sand. Each piece portrays a magical beauty, which is never seen but always felt.

The sad thing is, nobody ever really knows how much anyone else is hurting. We could be standing next to somebody who is completely broken and we wouldn’t even know it.

The marks that have been left on you by those who were far too careless shall wash away one day, you are the flesh and blood underneath those markings, full of beauty and complexity. You are radiant and the wounds that the past has left you will heal, and you will soar once more. You are not broken, for nothing beautiful is ever truly broken. Look up at the stars and see how big this life is, now breathe and know how important it is that you are alive to be apart of it all. Wounds will heal, tears will be wiped away, and love will grow all the more. Know this, for it is what will cause your heart to bloom.

If I understand correctly, these are ceramic bowls floating in a pool of water, possibly in a cave because it’s echo-y, and the clinking sound is them bumping into one another. Like wind chimes, but … water chimes?

yo, i saw this in person over the summer! it’s an art installation!

the piece is called clinamen v.2, created by Céleste Boursier-Mougenot and included as a part of the Soundtracks exhibit in the moma - i saw it in san fran, and this photo is from a showing in new york:

the exhibit is a large shallow pool filled with white ceramic bowls in varying sizes. the bowls are pushed around the pool by a gentle current, and the sound created as they hit each other is somewhere between a wind chime and a haunted bell.

i sat there for a solid ten minutes just watching the bowls move around while listening to the sounds they made. it was absolutely hypnotic…

Soundtracks runs in the san fran moma until january 1st 2018, and i absolutely recommend going if you can. many of the exhibits play with sound in 3D spaces, and there are some truly wild contraptions on display.
