Mondo Hollywood

This full-length 120 minute uncensored director's cut of Robert Carl Cohen's surrealistic documentary of Hollywood in the psychedelic 1960s was invited to open the 1968 Avignon Film Festival. However, its exhibition was banned by the French Ministry of Information for "Espousing a number of perversities, including drugs & homosexuality." Described by critics as "bizarre prophesy," it has withstood the passage of time as a unique record of the lives & attitudes of those whose lives mirrored the "Hollywood Dream."

CLET

According to the Italian street artist CLET, "The omnipresence of street signs can verge on the absurd. The message is very poor (sometimes I feel like I’m being treated like an idiot by them) and yet they have a highly invasive aesthetic. As a professional in the world of visual space, I feel called to intervene, both to notify the public of the absurdity of the situation, and to propose a constructive and respectful alternative. The final objective? That traffic keeps flowing without us feeling spoken down to!"

How Big is the Ocean? — Scott Gass

While the Earth's oceans are known as five separate entities, there is really only one ocean. So, how big is it? As of 2013, it takes up 71% of the Earth, houses 99% of the biosphere, and contains some of Earth's grandest geological features. Scott Gass reminds us of the influence humans have on the ocean and the influence it has on us.
