YELO - URBAN SPA - tip NYC

Image
A friend of mine told me about this place in NYC and I am dying to try it. It sounds great! Check it out: "YeloSpa was created and designed to be a sanctuary to help urbanites deal with the pressures of modern life through a unique combination of spa and wellness treatments. Upon arrival you are immediately wrapped in a warm and peaceful color scheme inspired by the robes and sash of Tibetan Monks. Sip artisanal tea from a floating Lantern and refresh with a scented hot towel as you embark on your Yelo journey. Your session takes place in a cocoon-like treatment room called the YeloCab where you can completely customize your aromatherapy, sound and lighting and enjoy a mini-vacation in the heart of New York City.

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...
