Sleeping in the Camera Obscura


Many, if not everyone, at least one time will have heard of the camera obscura.
Few, nearly no one, have ever woke up in such a magic thing.
But this is what happened to Sara and me just a couple of days ago, when we opened our yes in the morning and noticed a coloured shadow on the wall. So we stood up and checked with our eyes that the coloured spot was actually the building in front of ours but, as you know, turned upside down.
With the whole room in the darkness, all the light was just passing through a little hole at the top of the shutters and it was so unexpected that really looked magic.
We were so amazed by this thing that we'd have liked to stay for hours to watch this, but the day was calling and we had to move on.
Anyhow now we know that we're sleeping in the Camera Obscura, and every sunny day this beautiful show will be on air again.

Holes in shutters for everybody!

The story of stuff


Here we go again.
This time I've found another video about the lifecycle of things that looks interesting. It lasts 20 minutes but I still didn't watch it, so I'm recommending to try something without having experienced it yet!
You can log to the Story of stuff internet site here and play the interactive video or you can download the film here.

Have fun,

Nic

Logorama


Cari amici, probabilmente solo alcuni riusciranno a capire ogni singola parola senza i sottotitoli, ma questo cortometraggio è grandioso! Fa veramente pensare a quanto schiavi dei marchi siamo diventati. Vale la pena trovare un quarto d'ora di tempo per guardarlo fino in fondo. E mille grazie a Silvio, che me lo ha fatto scoprire!
Ciao, buona settimana a tutti,
Nic

My friends, this short movie is great! It really makes me think how logo-slaves we have become! It's really worth watching until the end. And many thanks to Silvio, who made me discover it!
Ciao, have a good week,
Nic

Hi all,
the day after my poor car was given to the flames by some very insensitive people I tried to think of something else by putting online again my internet site www.nicolaprincipato.com
I hope you all will enjoy its new stories!
