Here is another one from Uli Henrik Streckenbach just because I love his work so much. Unfortunately it is in German, but the visuals should still give you an idea. Hopefully the video will be narrated into english…

Another fantastic video by German boy Uli Henrik Streckenbach. All about the carelessness in which our limited amount of topsoil is treated.

An amazingly animated video by Uli Henrik Streckenbach from Berlin about the extent of overfishing and how the EU parliament can do something about it.

David Brooks – “The Social Animal”

Posted by Matt Beer - November 18, 2011 - Just for Fun

A personal indulgence but I find this topic fascinating and I believe it says so much about our culture and our values. New York Times journalist David Brooks (it took me a little while to place him from the PBS Newshour) has written a book called “The Social Animal”. As I have come to learn over the last few years, early childhood is so critical to the person we become and the types of decisions we make in the future and this book covers a fair bit of this. He talks about the power of the unconscious mind and its impact on our lives, also that the type of relationship a child forms with its mother is indicative of future relations a child will form. He also believes in the value of emotional, rather than logical, decisions, which be ascertains, form the foundation of who we are.

I can only hope that the more our society furthers this field of knowledge the more it can be incorporated into our educational system and our ways of parenting. Hopefully it can reverse the worrying trends we are seeing today in how our kids are raised.

Earth | A Time Lapse From Space

This very cool video is an extended time lapse from the International Space Station. Always good to see the world from a different perspective. Have fun trying to pick out the countries. Copy and paste of the details of the video below.

Time lapse sequences of photographs taken by Ron Garan, Satoshi Furukawa and the crew of expeditions 28 & 29 onboard the International Space Station from August to October, 2011, who to my knowledge shot these pictures at an altitude of around 350 km. All credit goes to them. I intend to upload a FullHD-version presently.

HD, refurbished, smoothed, retimed, denoised, deflickered, cut, etc. All in all I tried to keep the looks of the material as original as possible, avoided adjusting the colors and the like, since in my opinion the original footage itself already has an almost surreal and aestethical visual nature.

I had to post this up. Partly cos I love Bill Hicks and most of what spews out of his mouth and also because the kinetic typography in the clip is amazing. 1:44 mins well spent.

Banned US Commercial About National Debt

Considered a tad controversial this short 1 min advert pictures the world from the Chinese perspective in 20 years time. It will probably be not far wrong.

David Mitchell – Sustainability

David on his soapbox again. This time the notion of wasting valuable resources just because the current price mechanisms make them cheap gets a dressing down. Is a carbon tax that hard? Oh wait yes. Nobody likes to go backwards or pay more than they feel they should just because they once bought it cheaper sometime in the past. Pity nobody seems to realise that with peak oil the cheap days will be soon forever gone.
