<span style="font-size: small;">A couple of weeks ago, we had the chance to attend the opening night of the Alberta Ballet's season, with the National Ballet of Canada's 60th anniversary tour. To say it completely blew our minds would kinda be an understatement. It was fantastic, but mostly it was <i>real</i>. Especially the <a href="http://www.albertaballet.com/page/emergence/1000552"><i>Emmergence</i></a> ballet choreographed by </span><span style="font-size: small;">Crystal Pite. </span><br />
<div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">The talent, dedication and grace of the dancers just transported us to another world. It was raw, human, and truly impressive. No special effects, no <i>photoshop</i>, no <i>autotunes</i>, it was pure talent and art at its finest. It's something I think we don't get to see enough, or maybe don't value enough these days. We go to the movies, see scenes that might have took 30 takes to nail, and then were color adjusted, the image was tweaked etc. Same goes for most of the images we see, or the music we hear. I don't think there is anything wrong with wanting to achieve perfection, or the art of digital enhancement of any kind. But I think we underestimate the value of seeing live performances, with their flaws, put on by people who dedicate their lives to perfect the art of showmanship. It is a truly humbling and human experience that we should all try to get more of, and value more. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">So, go out and see a live band in a small venue, a play, a ballet, modern dance, circus, whatever you like, but see it live, for real. And then, tell me what you thought! Enjoy! ;)</span></div>

These neat images by Swiss artist <a href="http://www.kunstaufraeumen.ch/" target="_blank">Ursus Wehrli</a> for his book called <i>The Art of Clean Up</i>, really calm the OCD part of me, you know, when you suddenly feel the urge to organize everything in nice pretty rows, or in neat little spaces....Am I the only one feeling like that sometimes? Like how a spent 2 precious hours of last weekend organizing books by color, then subject, then title... Well, ok seeing it in words actually sounds pretty ridiculous I must admit...</div>

"You look great when you smile!" would have probably been my line! What about you? This is a fantastic idea by the group<a href="http://improveverywhere.com/"><i> Improv everywhere</i></a>, the crazy-creative team that always seems to come up with brilliant ideas. I really hope I get to be part of one of their project one day!<br />

I know I've been away for a while, but I have a good reason! I am very busy at work! Ye! I got a job! But don't worry, I'll still try to upload nice, fun, and interesting things here as much as I can! I just have to find my groove, and get on top of that learning curve, I hear the view is much nicer up there! :)<br />

Last weekend was <a href="http://www.calgaryfolkfest.com/">Calgary's Folk Fest</a>, and it was a really fun time!! A full weekend of riding our bikes to the park for amazing music under the sun, with friends, sampling great food, what could be better? Even though there was lots of good shows from various talented artists, my highlight is definitely a Seattle band called <a href="http://www.theheadandtheheart.com/index.php"><i>The head and the Heart</i> </a>that got everyone up on their feet the whole show! I just got their album on iTunes, and it's been on repeat since.That's how much I like it. I feel I should also mention that Joel Plaskett and Coeur de Pirate's respective shows were amazing !

Ceremony is a touching story about crazy, irrational love and true friendship. It's set in a breathtaking cottage on a beach, with a eclectic, free spirited, over the top group of people. The styling, decor and attention to detail take you on a beautiful journey, where the story line almost stop being important, just because everything you see is so pretty and unique. I wish I get invited to such an enchanting week-end one day! I highly recommend you pour yourself a nice iced tea in a crystal glass, and just let yourself be carried away by <a href="http://www.ceremonyfilm.com/">Ceremony</a>.Chloé and Victorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10187942329769770374noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2570814330065004788.post-46580007474141247702011-07-07T16:31:00.003-04:002011-07-07T16:46:14.984-04:00Who you need to know now<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEisUReRXujM3qK3xxnRqj4C3x-1xPMZNxr4J0w60C9mKwfa3don0_HL37xWupHAGQUHv6971Wuq4z_sVsZ5TKWmM_Ow_zODowHi_63wv0UcJxeX_8dncQN9JQcI1a1xXYtqDJnGbfLF53k/s1600/Screen+shot+2011-07-07+at+2.38.08+PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="222" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEisUReRXujM3qK3xxnRqj4C3x-1xPMZNxr4J0w60C9mKwfa3don0_HL37xWupHAGQUHv6971Wuq4z_sVsZ5TKWmM_Ow_zODowHi_63wv0UcJxeX_8dncQN9JQcI1a1xXYtqDJnGbfLF53k/s400/Screen+shot+2011-07-07+at+2.38.08+PM.png" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

Following the trend of powerful rich voices like Adele's and Amy Winehouse's, she brings a playful vintage vibe that is sure to make you tap you feet and put a smile on your face! I absolutely love it! The video above is " Kinda outta Luck" it starts slow, but quickly becomes awesome!

We were there the second night the place was in operation and everything was seamless! The service was great, the food was good and the ambiance was electric! What a refreshing experience it is to dine under giant trees, pick from an original German menu, and an interesting wine and beer selection. You can even arrange to have them keep your own stein! After dinner, make your way downstairs for a few drinks in a very laid back ambiance. It's also a great spot for people watching (oh come on, we all do it!), folks looked <i>really</i> good!<br />
