theFUTURISTS

have you ever wanted to DJ your own party and thought it would be too hard, cause you don’t have the gear? cause it would confuse you to keep looking at the spinning circle on your laptop?

Well you can DJ!

click this link and experiment_ it’s wicked sweet i promise_ I’m making this post short cause i have to go change the next video that’ll play (you’ll know what im talking about when you click the link)

Maybe everyone knows, but just to let the ones who don’t know, Google recently has put up a street view for Vancouver_ Its a 3D experience_ no special glasses needed!_ here’s how:

-click on link: LINK
-type in any Vancouver street name in the search bar
-see that little orange man above the zoom? click him and drag him to any intersection
-double click on the street to move forward (circle will show up)
-double click to zoom in (square will show up)
Viola! street view!
do you think you can find yourself!? peoples faces and license plates have been blocked off_ but maybe you’ll be able to recognize yourself_ try it out!

Just one more thing to point out_ i think it might be still under the works_ i was taking a look at it and was going through one of my daily bike routes and found that 14th didn’t have a school on it anymore but instead was looking at an alley with dumpsters_

Enjoy!

‘Patrick Cruz is a Filipino immigrant artist, born in Mandaluyong, Philippines (1987) and grew up in Quezon City. Patrick works with various media: drawing, painting, photography, film, sound, sculpture, installation and performance art. Growing up with ADHD (attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder), his works are borne out of impulsiveness. His works also investigate Filipino superstitions and his cultural displacement. He currently resides in Vancouver, Canada and works full time at a fudge shop at the Granville Island Public Market.

THE TIT OF A RAINBOW is an installation consisting of Patrick Cruz’s paintings and sculptures made from 2005 (his first year of residence in Canada) up to the present. These works explore the problematics of information overload, a process where meaning, intent and praxis merge. His presentation will unravel the theory of his works where discovery is realized by the audience as they view his works. THE TIT OF A RAINBOW is an installation that heavily relies on the presence and active involvement of the viewers.’

So before going out with your friends you guys should check this out_ and if you’re wondering_ yes there will be fudge made available_ but artwork should be the main focus!
