Daniel Dancer’s Art Of The Sky
Inspired by the works of Stan Herd and the famous Nazca Lines of Peru, American artist Daniel Dancer creates unique paintings made of latex paint and a lot of people. 66-year-old Daniel Dancer has spent the last ten years of his life traveling the world over and creating unique artworks, choreographed and immortalized from way up in the sky. Upon discovering the mysterious Nazca Lines, in South America, he wanted to create his own artistry, so he bought some paint, gathered 800 school children and made a giant salmon, in Oregon. So far, the Kansas-based artist has created hundreds of human paintings and has convinced thousands of people to participate in his Art of the Sky project. His artworks include a bald eagle made with the help of 1,400 people and a portrait of Barrack Obama. To properly choreograph the participants in the Art of the Sky project, Daniel Dancer climbs in hot air balloons or large cranes. When everyone is in place, he asks the people to lie on their hands and knees, so the largest amount of color is exposed.
Angelina Jolie's movie Salt is banned in China
Looks like Angelina Jolie's movie Salt won't be showing in China. The reason is as below:
… [n]ot one of those “scenes must be removed before your film is allowed to play in China” problems, but a “sorry, but no amount of edits will satisfy us” problem. Meaning that Salt is apparently cinema non grata in that country until further notice – no theatrical bookings, no DVDs, no Blurays. Which, of course, means a huge opportunity for Chinese video pirates and a huge potential loss for Sony Picture.

Impossible Wooden Triangle Illusion - Impossible Triangle Illusion
This is a simple photo of impossible triangles formation. This impossible construction sure looks Escher inspired.
You presume it’s two triangles trapped in an impossible way, but actually it’s only one continuous line if you follow it closely.
