Mondayspirations: time to get inspired by bouncing balls!

It is Bowerhaus Mondayspirations and it is time to get inspired by bouncing balls! Sony let loose 250,000 colorful bouncy balls into the streets of San Francisco to launch their BRAVIA brand. Luckily Danish photographer Peter Funch was on hand to captured this magical moment!

As LUMAS states, "Peter Funch was there to take really amazing photographs in which you have to look twice to believe what you are seeing: an unleashed mass of small, colorful balls hopping down the hills, past the American emblems of normality. The unloaded automobiles parked in front of wooden row houses interfere with an established sedateness, with which unrestrained anarchy suddenly interferes. In a few minutes the show will be over, and the residents who noticed it will rub their eyes. But this moment, with its crazy vitality, will live on in Peter Funch’s photographs. What we got to see is a child’s dream that left everyone, who managed to preserve such childhood dreams, in a great mood."

Mondayspiration: your never to old to have fun and become a superhero!

Meet Sacha Goldberger and and get inspired by his goal to bring happiness to his depressed 91-year-old Hungarian grandmother, Frederika. To cheer her up, Sacha suggested that they shoot a series of outrageous photographs in unusual costumes, poses, and locations. Grandma reluctantly agreed, but once they got rolling, she couldn't stop smiling.

Frederika was born in Budapest, 20 years before World War II. During the war, at the peril of her own life, she courageously saved the lives of ten people. When asked how, Goldberger said "she hid the Jewish people she knew, moving them around to different places every day." As a survivor of Nazism and Communism, she then immigrated away from Hungary to France, forced by the Communist regime to leave her homeland illegally or face death.

Sacha wanted everyone to get to know his grandma because he wanted her to be immortal, but I bet he never imagined that she would become so popular!

Tear out Thursday with an artificial moon!

Beijing-based artist Wang Yuyang’s Artificial Moon may resemble the famous Waterford Crystal Times Square New Year's Eve Ball, but it's meant to be a magnificent recreation of Earth's only moon. Constructed from hundreds of compact fluorescent light bulbs and at over 13 feet wide, the massive moon even has strategically placed lights to mimic the real moon's craters and surface features.

It remarkably stands not only as a work of art, but as a representation of the moon that Shanghai inhabitants cannot see because of pollution. We should count our blessings if we can see our natural moon, however this is one amazing piece! what's not to LOVE!

Typography Tuesday: DITOT it up!

The ever so polished Didot has the ability to take you back in time to when people cared about what they wore on the streets and when manners mattered. Didot is a classic Betty in our eyes. BOWER in our logo is in Didot, with a hell of a lot of air between to keep things just that bit freer.

Monday-spiration with Inverted Art Made with Spools of Thread… Oddly Awesome!

Meet Devorah Sperber who's works I'm sure you'd want to see in person. What Sperber does is take multi-colored spools of thread and arranges them in a way so that they appear like pixels. Taken as a whole, the spools look like a "hot mess," in other words, like your grandma went crazy and glue gunned her thread collection on a wall. Look through a "viewing sphere" (a small, transparent ball) that's conveniently placed in front of the piece, however, and get ready to be amazed. As Brooklyn Museum states, "Sperber deconstructs familiar images so that the brain can reconstruct them. Her framed crystal reproductions similarly address the way we think we see versus the way the brain processes visual information."
