A couple weeks ago my friend told me that about weather engineering in China. I thought it was amazing. In a whole other China factoid, China is now planet Earth's third largest Art market behind leaders US & UK.

I learned from a good source yesterday that, supposedly, Art|Basel| Miami Beach version 2007 will feature a skateboard park on Miami Beach designed and artified by Ryan McGinness, supposedly... and then I get the above video linked to me in email today, from millo...

The Future of Art Fairs

Trying to dissolve the mathematics of taxes in my mind I went to youtube and searched General Idea and found only 1 relevant but excellent video. And then from the same user, I bumped into the above video after reading an article about the Frankfurt Art Fair the other day and the way Michael Neff, its director is rethinking what a fair is, how it functions and what it looks like. The German accents are stellar.
