Finca Bellavista, this amazing self-sustaining treehouse community in the rainforest canopy of Costa Rica, now 7 years down the line has grown to a surprising 600 acre complex connected by zip-lines and bridges. Situated 1.5 miles away from the nearest town, it is a perfect architectural project getaway that is constantly growing. It would be a dream to holiday there!
Japanese artist Yasuaki Onishi’s ‘Reverse of Volume RG’ is a stunning installation that capture’s the ‘ghost’ of what is no longer there. A visual impression of what is missing.
Onishi stacked cardboard boxes in larges piles of varying heights to create the object of his impression, then plastic sheeting was draped over a scaffolding set up around the assembled boxes. With the help of an assistant, the artist dripped strands of hot black glue down from the ceiling to the sheet, letting them dry like threads in the air.
After the thousands of glue strands were dry, Onishi removed the boxes below, revealing a negative space cast of what had been there before. From beneath the tarp, the glue strands are seen as confetti of black specks across a floating, cave-like ceiling. From afar, ‘Reverse’ is a mesmerizing preservation, a kind of receipt for the work that went into the work itself.

Ive edited 10 separate documents today… about 89 total pages. I feel pro… but at the same time my head hurts, and I dont really care about these any more. Yet I still have 3 more documents to go. In 2 hours. Crap.
