Antimimeticisomorphism: A Map Example

As reader or subscriber to this blog, you’ve come to expect to see things that are different, or the same things you’ve always seen, but from a different perspective. Today’s post is about maps. How different can maps be? After all they represent what’s there… Or do they? If you think you know how maps are created and what they represent, think again!

Antimimeticisomorphism: Invisible Man

Just when you think you’ve seen it all, someone comes up with a new twist, a new way to get you to do a double-take and ask “What the #$$#%#^@*&???”

This is one of those videos that you KNOW what’s being done, but how the heck does he actually do it?!? Only a very creative and talented person can pull this off. What can I say other than “WOW!”

This video was sent to me by Andrew Powell of Montreal, Canada – Thank you!!!!

How To Live: Steve Jobs

New year, new life, new destiny. But what destiny do you really want? That’s the question Steve Jobs, Apple’s CEO answers with his commencement address at Standford University. It’s worth the 15 minutes to sit back, listen and ponder what you’re doing with yourself and your life in 2010. What I really like about this video is that hindsight is always 20/20, but what if you could have 20/20 foresight?

That’s what I teach my clients – 20/20 foresight – to connect the dots as Steve explains, by PLACING them in front of you instead of as a bread crumb trail behind you.

Imagine if it was possible to set a course to ANY DESTINATION, ANY CAREER, ANY GOAL…

Norman Vincent Peale said it first ” Whatever  the mind can Believe and Conceive, it can Achieve.”

It call it the ABCs of Personal Mastery.

It all starts by BELIEVING in yourself as Steve tells some of the brightest graduates…

The sad part is only a very small fraction will actually listen to what he’s saying.

If this resonates with you – contact us regarding our Personal Mastery Programs – we’ll help you achieve life balance without compromising your results because YOU CAN HAVE IT ALL.

You just need to know what “all is”!

Antimimeticisomorphism: Ukrainian Artist

Every once in a while, an artist comes up with something that just defies logic and makes you watch it over and over again wondering how the heck does she do that?!?! Don’t dare to miss this amazing video, but first read the following..

This video shows the winner of “Ukraine’s Got Talent“, Kseniya Simonova, 24, drawing a series of pictures on an illuminated sand table showing how ordinary people were affected by the German invasion during World War II. Her talent, which admittedly is a strange one, is mesmeric to watch.

The images, projected onto a large screen, moved many in the audience to tears and she won the top prize of about $130,000.00

She begins by creating a scene showing a couple sitting holding hands on a bench under a starry sky, but then warplanes appear and the happy scene is obliterated.

It is replaced by a woman’s face crying, but then a baby arrives and the woman smiles again. Once again war returns and Miss Simonova throws the sand into chaos from which a young woman’s face appears.

She quickly becomes an old widow, her face wrinkled and sad, before the image turns into a monument to an Unknown Soldier.

This outdoor scene becomes framed by a window as if the viewer is looking out on the monument from within a house.

In the final scene, a mother and child appear inside and a man standing outside, with his hands pressed against the glass, saying goodbye.

The Great Patriotic War, as it is called in Ukraine, resulted in one in four of the population being killed with eight to 11 million deaths out of a population of 42 million.

Kseniya Simonova says: “I find it difficult enough to create art using paper and pencils or paintbrushes, but using sand and fingers is beyond me. The art, especially when the war is used as the subject matter, even brings some audience members to tears. And there’s surely no bigger compliment.”

A big thank you to Peter Wilson of Oz Cakes for sending this to me. If you come across a video like this, please forward it to me so I can keep sharing incredible talent like this with as many people as possible.
