Fantastic commercial
Wow!
One of the best commercial in the history of advertising.
Perfect. Unmissable!
The key
At 7:40 there is the key: “Find the true essential feeling. I want your music to rouse the fragment of the infinite that sleeps in their stomachs.”
Please note that you are listenig to an “impossible” performance: Farinelli’s singing voice was provided by a soprano, Ewa Malas-Godlewska and a countertenor, Derek Lee Ragin, who were recorded separately then digitally merged to recreate the sound of a castrato.
World & Genius
“When a true genius appears in the world, you may know him by this sign, that the dunces are all in confederacy against him.” – Jonathan Swift
A nice story
Warning: Better have some kleenex handy….:-)
Bach & God
“Fara Bach, Dumnezeu ar fi un personaj de mâna a treia. Bach e singurul lucru care-ti da impresia ca universul nu e ratat”. – Emil Cioran
(Without Bach, God would be a complete second rate figure. Bach’s music is the only argument proving the creation of the Universe cannot be regarded a complete failure)
Oh, just to confirm:
This is your life and it’s ending one minute at a time…
A fantastic page from “Fight Club”, by Chuck Palahniuk: read carefully every line… and then think.
Or, better, act.
Still better, fight! 🙂
First World Problems
No comment…
Dare
“I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”
Bene Gesserit Litany Against Fear – From Frank Herbert’s “Dune”
Beethoven – Symphony No.9 (10000 Japanese)
WTF!!!!!!!
A larger that life (and absolutely fantastic….) japanese interpretation of Beethoven…
Really amazing.
Small people vs. Great people
“Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great ones make you feel that you, too, can become great. ” – Mark Twain
