One of the website I check out every morning is the Daily Beast’s Cheat Sheet which sums up all the must read news in one place. Happily, they included the Mavericks win. But when it comes to an image, you would think the would include Dirk, or Kidd, or maybe even Cuban. Heck, maybe even a sad faced Lebron. But no, they decided to show Ian Mahinmi who averaged just five minutes a game during the playoffs.
Airi•gam•i (\’er-?-’gä-m?\ n : the fine art of folding air) stands at the crossroads of three ancient art forms: sculpture, puppetry and origami.
Artist Larry Moss has been using airigami to create “full-blown” installations that enchant both young and old for more than a dozen years, and – whether it’s a ten-room haunted house (Balloon Manor), the world’s first piloted balloon sculpture (Fantastic Flying Octopus) or a pre-historic museum exhibition (Elastic Park) – they bring people together in the way that only the best public art installations can.
Yup, I’m impressed. Check out their other stuff.
Smith really picks up on it halfway through the video.
