  Click link to watch video https://vimeo.com/43944363 Duas vezes por ano eu faço um jejum por 10 dias. Uma vez na Primavera e outra no Outono.

About my favorite car, the Aston Martin DB6 Volante

Image
The Aston Martin DB6 is a grand tourer made by British car manufacturer Aston Martin. Produced from September 1965 to January 1971, the DB6 has the longest production run to date of any Aston Martin model. The DB6 succeeded the popular Aston Martin DB5 and featured improved aerodynamics and specification over its predecessor. Introduced at the 1965 London Motor Show, the DB6 was already a dated design, sharing a large resemblance to its predecessor, the DB5; with the most noticeable differences being its wheelbase, side profile, split front and rear bumpers and rear panels incorporating the Kammback tail rear end.

The videos playing in the elevators at the Standard Hotel - NYC

Image
Guests at the Standard Hotel, are treated to an awesome eye candy: "Civilization," a depiction of heaven, hell, and purgatory created by video artist Marco Brambilla. The video artist compiled hundreds of movie clips into one stunning piece inspired by Dante's Inferno. The piece runs as one enormous video collage. As the elevator rises, the sequence, running from an overhead projector, ascends to heaven. As the elevator descends, the video runs in reverse, ending in hell. Brambilla created the piece by assembling the movie clips, which he photoshopped together. He then took these to a digital animation house which combined all the clips, so that each one runs in a loop as part of one single video collage. I recommend a happy hour drink at the Boom Boom Room (the bar at the top of the Standard Hotel) even if just for the elevator ride! (Well, you will enjoy the view from up there as well and that is a promise!) Watch the video by clicking the link. http://vimeo.com/5...
