Big Bang Big Boom
These Blu people (not from the James Cameron magical cats movie) made this crazy video that explains where we came from and where we’re headed. I guess. Anyway, it’s really long, and maddeningly thorough. If you don’t have 10 minutes to watch it I recommend letting it load and jumping to about 8:10 where it shows us humans and our issues. Not just because it’s about us, but because it’s really neat.

In my experience, European pop art edges towards the corny. Steve Spielberg is very popular over there. I have twiddled it around in my head since 1st going in the 70′s (that would be before Paris had a Pompidou and its ghastly neighbor Les Halles — I have pictures and wow, what a fabulous neighborhood they bulldozed) and I still can’t quite put my finger on it.
There is a fatalism there that expresses itself best as “there is nothing new under the sun.”
But there is also a lot of energy and creativity.
And most of it desperately wishes it could move here, live in the Mission and work for google.
Thanks for posting that video, its really cool
BLU is a graffiti artist out of Italy. Singular person, not “people”. Much respect for sharing the video, but come on now, research…..
Sorry you don’t like the plurality. It does take more than one person to make something like this. But you’re right, Blu is just a person.
