Great Crevase Edgar Mueller.
Hard work: Together with up to five assistants, Mueller painted all day long from sunrise to sunset. The picture appeared on the East Pier in Dun Laoghaire , Ireland , as part of the town's Festival of World Cultures.
He spent five days, working 12 hours a day, to create the 250 square metre image of the crevasse, Which, viewed from the correct angle, appears to be 3D. He then persuaded passers-by to complete The illusion by pretending the gaping hole was real.Great Crevase Edgar Mueller.

My favorite day of the year is the day that Coachella releases its lineup. I like it more than the actual concert (because I am an idealist.) Today the lineup was released, and it's making my heart skip a beat. (I also just drank lots of coffee, so that could also be the reason.)
I think this is one of the best lineups I've seen in years. The key to a good billing is simple. You need:
Bands you have no interest in seeing.
Bands that you want to see in all font sizes.
You don't want to like all the bands. If you want to see every band, you'll end up feeling disappointed because you've missed sets. This also provides an important gap in your schedule. For example, I don't care about Public Image Ltd, which means when they perform, I can buy a churro.
Bands billed at different font sizes means they'll play at different times. So you can actually see them perform. If you really wanted to see Muse and DJ Tiësto you'd probably be out of luck, because they will be going on at the same time.
I am excited to see these bands:
Friday: Jay-Z! The Specials! Grizzly Bear! Sleigh Bells! Calle 13! Wale!
Saturday: MGMT! Hot Chip! Gossip! Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes!
Sunday: Pavement! Thom Yorke! Phoenix! Sly and the Family Stone! Matt & Kim! Rusko!
Who are you looking forward to?
Check out Friday's act Passion Pit, on their Embedded Tour Stop.

It Begins:
"I used to dread the rain when I lived in London. But in a town like L.A. where you rarely get a season change, you kinda embrace the moment. The only problem is, unlike the famously written pavement sign in this photo, neither of us looked right after that day."
If only teleportation and time-travel were real. You could go back and fix mistakes. You could re-live moments. But the sad fact is that you have to accept reality and often times it’s heartbreaking no matter how hard you try to alter it. This is about a girl and guy who try and make a place something it’s not and in the end it breaks both of their hearts.It Begins:
