i visited a preview of the hague art academy (KABK) final show last friday and these are some of the graduates whose work caught my attention: a very comprehensive and well researched project on adoption from miranda ensink, who is herself a korean adoption child (although the final book she made is not yet on her site), inbal kaplan who created a series of playful posters based on the familiar smells associated of her family members (also not yet on her site), karlijn van leeuwen, judith veenendaal who is passionate about music and illustration, this recent video, for example, which she made for young electronica artist ‘sotu the traveller’
and finally florian schick who concentrated on font design and is currently working on a new upcoming font release ‘calligrafx’

here’s a few interesting little film things i came across today:
‘fontanel’ posted this wonderfully quirky reconstruction of the 1982 world cup match between france & germany: refait
…every aspect of the fifteen last minutes of the match was carefully reconstructed : players, positions, gestures, intensity, drama etc. It consists in shifting the traditional game area into the urban environment. Each sequence takes place in one or several locations and then the city temporarily becomes the lab for unsual experiments…
‘fast lane’ a set of three viral films for volkswagen
and below a very zen-like, slow pace, compilation of the final resting place of some of new york’s more famous AIDS victims…
