“If you can’t love yourself, how the hell you gonna love somebody else?” - RuPaul - - - - - - - - - - - “if by a "Liberal" they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people -- their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties -- someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a "Liberal," then I'm proud to say I'm a "Liberal.” - John F. Kennedy - - - - - - - - - - - - “Imagine finding someone you love more than anything in the world, who you would risk your life for but couldn’t marry. And you couldn’t have that special day the way your friends do – you know, wear the ring on your finger and have it mean the same thing as everybody else. Just put yourself in that person’s shoes. It makes me feel sick to my stomach …. When I shared a picture of my tattoo on my Twitter page and said, ‘ALL LOVE is equal,’ a lot of people mocked me – they said, ‘What happened to you? You used to be a Christian girl!’ And I said, ‘Well, if you were a true Christian, you would have your facts straight. Christianity is about love.’ The debate resulted in a lot of threats and hate mail to people who agreed and disagreed with me. At one point I had to say, ‘Dude, everyone lay off.’ Can’t people have friendly debates about sensitive topics without it turning into unnecessary threats?” - Pop star Miley Cyrus on her marriage equality tattoo - - - - - - - - - - -

Post-it Note Arcade - Stop Motion Animation

So this is pretty darn cool.  Using 4,800 Post-it Notes, Michael Birken took 5,722 still images and created a stop-motion masterpiece.  The film is derived from two of his favorite childhood arcade games, Pac-Man and Super Mario Bros..

According to his YouTube page, Michael posted the notes on various walls in his office and took shots one frame at a time.  It took him over 11 months to complete.  

It is really fun to watch, check it out.  It reminds me of that other fabulous Post-it note creation I posted 2 years ago, "The Power of Love".

A Good Clay to Die Hard

This is for all you Die Hard Fans and for my sister, Victoria who has a fascination with Bruce Willis.  God knows why.  

In either case, it's a pretty funny clay stop-motion trailer for the new Die Hard movie out in theaters.  Enjoy!

Post-it Note Art Using The Power of Love

Being a fan of intriguing concepts and art, the video below surpasses all of that.  The mural in the film was made using personalized post-it notes to create a stop-motion film.  It is absolutely genius.  The YouTube description states the following:
Animation made with 350 thousand sheets of Post It ® on the front of the Galeria Melissa in São Paulo for the launching of the "Melissa Power of Love." Photographed step by step and performed by 25 animators in five months, and a beautiful film action generated an extra special surprise: more than 30 000 spontaneous messages of love left by fans of Melissa and visitors. This is the power of love that causes Melissa.
