Nice art, Rimbaud

CHANSON DE LA PLUS HAUTE TOUR
Oisive jeunesse
A tout asservie,
Par délicatesse
J'ai perdu la vie.
Ah! que les temps vienne
Où les coeurs s'éprennent!
Je me suis dit: Laisse
Et qu'on ne te voie.
Et sans la prouesse
De plus hautes joies
Que rien ne t'arrête,
Auguste retraite.
Ô mille veuvages
De la si pauvre âme
Qui n'a que l'image
De la Notre-Dame:
Est-ce que l'on prie
La Vierge Marie?
J'ai tant fait patience
Qu'à jamais j'oublie,
Craintes et souffrances
Aux cieux sont parties
Et la soif malsaine
Obscurcit mes veines.
Ainsi la prairie
A l'oubli livrée;
Grandie et fleurie
D'encens et d'ivraies;
Au bourdon farouche
De cent sales mouches.
Oisive jeunesse
A tout asservie,
Par délicatesse
J'ai perdu ma vie.
Ah! Que le temps vienne
Où les coeurs s'éprennent!

What is it to be a student tday?

Created by Michael Wesch in collaboration with 200 students at Kansas State University.
The video focuses on technology and studies programs in the student lives. It's true that these are what makes the difference between today's students and the previous generations. But to complete the portray of today's students I would add the fear for future and the big parties (binge drinking)

Decadence...

Quentin Veron, F/W 2010
That's more than just a fashion show it's a real artistic happening, allying the wildness of Africa, the mysteries of circus and the beauty of dance.
BUT... FUR REALLY???? Why not fake fur?

Alexandra Verschueren has just won the Grand Prix du Jury at le festival de Hyères. Here an insteresting article about the festival and the prizes. The pieces are supposedly in paper: I just can't believe it. Anyway, after the Lagerfeld for Chanel Haute Couture S/S 2009 fashion show, this prize seemed to confirm the origami wave! Another thing is that I like the fact that, during the festival, the fashion shows are taking placein the streets and are openned to the public. I promise myself to go there next year whatever happens!
