25 abandoned Yugoslavia monuments that look like they’re from the future

“These structures were commissioned by former Yugoslavian president Josip Broz Tito in the 1960s and 70s to commemorate sites where WWII battles took place or where concentration camps stood. They were designed by different sculptors and architects, conveying powerful visual impact to show the confidence and strength of the Socialist Republic. In the 1980s, these monuments attracted millions of visitors per year, especially young pioneers for their ‘patriotic education.’ After the Republic dissolved in early 1990s, they were completely abandoned, and their symbolic meanings were forever lost. From 2006 to 2009, Kempenaers toured around the ex-Yugoslavia region with the help of a 1975 map of memorials, bringing before our eyes a series of melancholy yet striking images.”

I don’t believe I’ve published this on my page before, so here we go!

One of the main tasks of this course is to start you on the path of creating in some detail your vision of your future. If I fail in this I fail in the whole course. You will probably object that if you try to get a vision now it is likely to be wrong - and my reply is from observation I have seen the accuracy of the vision matters less than you might suppose, getting anywhere is better than drifting, there are potentially many paths to greatness for you, and just which path you go on, so long as it takes you to greatness, is none of my business. You must, as in the case of forging your personal style, find your vision of your future career, and then follow it as best you can.

Battleship: An Inside Look at the Real Stars of Battleship: The Awesome Special Effects(via @io9)

We’ve got an exclusive inside look at how Industrial Light & Magic created the big explodey world of Peter Berg’s Battleship. It’s actually a pretty detailed clip that shows the artists, concept art, the design process, and a few of their meetings with Berg (we love Berg’s laser pointer).

More people should behave this way. It’s far more enjoyable to show and tell than chastise someone for not knowing. =]

Now that it’s almost completely released, I’d like to share one project that I have had the opportunity of contributing to. =]

Yep, Marvel’s Pièce de résistance. The grand show that started with Iron Man 1 and has slowly led audiences up to it through many of the other Marvel films that followed. Naturally, expectations are high, and even without my personal bias of having a small part in its creation, I believe that the Avengers delivers the goods. Brilliant dialogue, brilliant narrative and story, brilliant sound and visuals. Congratulations to Joss Whedon, Marvel, ILM, Skywalker Sound and the many, many other teams that made it a reality. It was a great ride, and I am glad to see that every moment of blood, sweat and tears put into the show shines brightly on the big screen!

So yeah, for those of you in North America, Eastern Europe, Israel, Pakistan, Kuwait, Singapore and Thailand, it opens this week! For the rest of the world, it probably opened last week, so go and check it out if you haven’t already! You will be glad that you did. =]

I feel fortunate to be in a situation where I don’t have to worry about my kindness and generosity being used against me.
