GAZEBO 002 : Reviving Overused Architectural Forms as Public Art
@erb: Gazebo 002 is part of an ongoing series in which I reimagine various commonplace architectural forms as sculptural public art installations. After years of seeing the exact same shape in every park, both park-goers and designers have forgotten the gazebo for its original purpose. By transforming the standard form into something completely new, I'm hoping to tear the gazebo out of the background of our parks and bring it back to the forefront of our outdoor experiences. My goal is to provide a place for spontaneous happenings in the public space by inspiring conversation between strangers and encouraging creative interaction with the sculptural object I place before you.[3D Art] My weekly session at the library writing Steemit posts...or is it?

@roused: Being a guitarist's guitarist does not necessarily translate into fame, rock star status, or Grammy awards – Jeff Beck would be a notable exception. They are often musicians whose artistic integrity, individuality, and musical passion are at odds with that which leads to widespread commercial appeal.[Let’s Draw your Own Hero]짱짱맨을 그려보자!

@TheGalavantGirl: In C.S. Lewis’s The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, somewhere between the lamppost and the Eastern Sea, near the great castle of Cair Paravel, you can find many delicious dishes: A faun serves up toast, sardines, tea, and cake. Beavers and children discuss how to escape a witch over trout, buttered potatoes, and a gloriously sticky marmalade roll. Foxes and squirrels enjoy a plum pudding from Father Christmas; and then of course, most famously, there’s Turkish delight—so magical you could eat to your death for wanting it. This is the Kingdom of Narnia.
Decentralization to the Rescue: Peerity – Steem’s Competitor?
@fingersik: I found a Steemit like platform that aims to support online AND offline activities of HIGH QUALITY alike. I was confused – naturally.
