my drawang for #bootlegbart @bestreet #humorisfunny (at THE ASS PALACE)
Hey, people of the world, don’t get caught up in all the bad news. Humanity is up to some pretty great stuff. Like this engineering triumph. Subscribe to get these stories regularly, stay positive.
Sandra Bland was stopped Friday by authorities in Waller County, Texas for a traffic violation. In a video of her arrest, while being forcibly held face down, Ms. Bland can clearly be heard saying to the officer, “You just slammed my head into the ground. Do you not even care about that?” As she’s being picked up off the ground and placed into the police vehicle, Ms. Bland can be heard again, this time thanking the person recording the video, saying, “Thank you for recording.”
Bland was arrested and booked on “assault of a public servant” charges.
A police statement says the following Monday morning Ms. Bland was released on a $5,000 bond, and was subsequently “found dead” by a female jailer who was “worried” about her recreation time. Waller County Sheriff Glenn Smith claims this was a case of self-inflicted asphyxiation. An autopsy performed Tuesday showed Bland’s death “has been classified as a suicide, with the cause of death (listed as) hanging,” according to Tricia Bentley, a spokeswoman for the Harris County Institute of Forensic Sciences in Houston.
Hanged. Suicide. A young 28-year old woman who was moving to Texas to begin working her dream job suddenly decided to commit suicide, supposedly because of a small traffic infraction?
Ms. Bland’s friends and family feel that the police’s story doesn’t add up. For one thing, the odd quickness with which everything seemed to escalate seems off. In a matter of 72 hours Bland went from being pulled over for a minor traffic violation, to being arrested for assaulting a cop, and then to killing herself, according to the police’s story. There’s also the fact that Bland is black, and Waller county has a history of discriminatory law enforcement behavior.
The police are lying again.

AIR: Gotham Vincent Laforet
“Aerials are surprisingly intimate, they make the world feel smaller.” ~ Vincent Laforet
AIR is a project born of my need to share an important lesson I’ve discovered over the past decade making aerial photographs: the world is much smaller than we think. Borders are irrelevant and distances shortened. Clearly, we are more intimately connected to one another than we may realize. AIR is a once a lifetime experience for our team and I’d like to pay that passion and excitement forward with as many of you as possible. I chose the title AIR because it’s something we all share and are all equally responsible for. By definition AIR doesn’t belong to anyone. It belongs to us all regardless of background, social status and origin, as does this project.

It’s Shark Week! That time of year where television networks pretend sharks are the most dangerous animal out there. Here we compare how many people are killed by sharks per year versus the two deadliest animals for humans - mosquitos and other people. Want to learn more? Watch the video here where we highlight 15 of the deadliest animals out there.
The Fourth Wall: Stages Klaus Frahm
“The Fourth Wall” is a concept in dramatic theory, often used by actors to signify the invisible stage wall where the audience is seated to view the play. The stage is classically perceived from the audience’s perspective, where they are able to glimpse the action through a “window” into the set—"The Fourth Wall.“
In this series, the direction of the viewpoint is opposite: we take the perspective of the actor. The camera is far behind the iron curtain.
It is the camera’s specific perspective, dissolving the traditional order, which questions the hierarchy of the stage and audience. For the French philosopher Lacan, an image is a gaze pointing outward, as the light-points send out rays to the viewer. In other words, the image looks at the onlooker.
Here, the space reserved for the audience becomes flat, like a postcard, and the real space of the theater, the stage, is explored in many directions. The camera looks up, taking note of the scaffolding and lighting structures: the mechanics of the space. Thus, we become aware of a workspace hidden behind the red velvet curtain. The contrast between backstage machinery and the sea of velvet seats is exciting.

Sleeping Giants, Weeping Plums: Japanese Landscape Photography Hidenobu Suzuki
My photographs are like Japanese paintings. I feel that realism is a more Western style. Through my landscape photographs, I’d like to express emotions and spiritual feelings.
Contemporary theater, art and music stimulate the brain and liven people’s mood. But emotional art heals people and leads society towards harmony. So, I took the challenge to capture emotions with my camera.
Using only rational thinking when creating photography results in better attention to the detail—but there is a tendency to get bored. Working with feelings and looking for emotions is more relaxing and ultimately, more powerful.
