A thread space to share what inspires you.
Andy Goldsworthy is a gem. Look him up if you don't yet know of his work and if you already do, hook me up.
Ripped from tonight's Huff Post http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/08/29/andy-goldsworthys-ephemer_n_1836688.html
An article on whether this work is worth the price?
Listening to Andy speak of it I am inspired. I better be careful though, I said in a recent post that I am not looking back. Looking forward can have the same effect. But the artist here is cautious, humbled by what time has over all of us. Time.

Rather a $684,000 egg-shaped pile of rocks than The Courier Mail, a 10 cent newspaper-shaped pile of words.
The motto of the London Games was Inspire A Generation. They certainly did. And now the Paras. This too is inspirational http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tuAPPeRg3Nw

| The london games didn't inspire me or my generation. They just made me want to get shit faced and forget about how fucked up the world is for a while. |

I agree, the Olympics were inspirational - hopefully for all generations to take up more sport and try things they've never done before. Even if they can start the shift away from the idolisation of people famous for being famous, that would be a start.

Ha ha. So true.
Tonight's for the Irish. Superhuman Saturday. Jason Smyth might be joining Oscar at the Rio regular olympics. Truly inspirational.
