Li Ziqi is a Chinese food and lifestyle vlogger whose videos about her rural life in Sichuan have attracted more than 6 million YouTube subscribers. In this clip, she turns corn into a feast. The dishes are shot professionally and edited stylishly to look like a mouthwatering slide show.
WARNING: It's torture to watch the last three minutes of the video if you are on an empty stomach.
If you’re a fan of art that makes you do a double-take, you need to check out Richard Brener . Based in the UK, Richard is an internationally collected artist who works primarily with ink, fineliners, and gouache. When you first see his pieces, they actually look pretty playful. Then you realize the entire canvas is packed with thousands of tiny, ghost-like shapes he calls "champs." They’re all squeezed together like commuters on a rush-hour train, and the level of detail is honestly mind-blowing. Richard spends hundreds of hours drawing these little guys over and over. It’s obsessive, very intentional, and a little bit wild. The cool part is that the longer you stare, the more the vibe shifts. Check out more photos below:
I've never seen Glas before and I'm absolutely delighted that Aeon Magazine uploaded the short doc on its Vimeo channel . Directed by Bert Haanstra, the 10-minute film about glass making won an Oscar for Best Short Documentary in 1959. "[ Glas ] contrasts the production of hand made crystal from the Royal Leerdam Glass Factory with automated bottle making machines in the Netherlands. An industrial film with a bebop heart, its lyrical use of light and sound still looks and sounds fabulous, nearly 60 years after it was made."
It's been a few months since I last checked in on Simon Beck (previously here ), who specializes in making ornate snow murals with just his snowshoes. Recently the British artist was commissioned by Sky Atlantic to create a promotional art for Game of Thrones : a massive direwolf symbol the size of two and a half football pitches. According to Digital Spy , it took Simon 13 hours, 64,800 steps, and 32.5 kilometers to complete the artwork, which is the sigil of the House Stark of Winterfell. The result is mind blowing.
