Hoje começou mais uma semana, mas mesmo com esse facto não resistimos em falar sobre o final da que já passou.
Depois da inauguração de "Impermanências e Permanências no Desenho" da Sílvia Simões este passado sábado na Galeria da Mundano, que podem voltar a visitar até dia 30 de Abril, finalmente ontem foi também a estreia mundial de mais um documentário dos Planetary Collective _ "We Are Planetary" no SXSW Film Festival.
Ficámos completamente fãs do primeiro trabalho deles com o OVERVIEW faz agora uns dois anos e hoje não resistimos em o postar no nosso blog para partilhar com vocês estes 19 minutos.
Uma boa maneira de fechar esta segunda feira com mais um momento de bom design. Cliquem no play e ponham o HD em grande formato do vosso ecrã a funcionar.
"On the 40th anniversary of the famous ‘Blue Marble’ photograph taken of Earth from space, Planetary Collective presents a short film documenting astronauts’ life-changing stories of seeing the Earth from the outside – a perspective-altering experience often described as the Overview Effect.
The Overview Effect, first described by author Frank White in 1987, is an experience that transforms astronauts’ perspective of the planet and mankind’s place upon it. Common features of the experience are a feeling of awe for the planet, a profound understanding of the interconnection of all life, and a renewed sense of responsibility for taking care of the environment."
‘Overview’ is a short film that explores this phenomenon through interviews with five astronauts who have experienced the Overview Effect. The film also features insights from commentators and thinkers on the wider implications and importance of this understanding for society, and our relationship to the environment.
