Gravity Glue

Thought this video was pretty cool. I've tried stacking rocks of different shapes and sizes in the past, never in water though. :D

Re: Gravity Glue

Thanks for posting, that was awesome. Wonder how he manages to get these pieces to stay on dry land, though.

He also reminded me of the environmental artist, Andy Goldsworthy - here is a video of some of his work:

Re: Gravity Glue

WOW!!!!! This is REALLY awesome!!!

Sometimes words seem so inadequate to describe something I find wonderful. The video itself is also so well made, beautiful nature scenes, the film running in reverse and the music.

Its funny when I saw the name of this thread I thought it may be about qualities of gravity and its meaning according to the C's. Today I've been reading the section in "Riding the Wave" about unstable gravity waves.

This young man certainly has a exceptional ability to sense the gravity in stones. What's the metaphysical meaning of that I wonder :).

Thanks for posting!

Re: Gravity Glue

Wondrous! This seems to be a good technique and instrumental tool to get in touch & in tune with the forces of gravity.

Re: Gravity Glue

We live in Bizzarro World!

Just saw this piece from RawStory.com:

Michael Grab, a Boulder artist who goes by the name Gravity Glue, said that police threatened to ticket or jail him for creating stacked river rock sculptures that the community has been enjoying for years.

In a Monday Facebook post, Grab explained that a Boulder police officer had informed him that there would be stiff penalties for continuing his art.

Of course... it's illegal to even petition against fracking in some places, go figure.

Re: Gravity Glue

Geez! Bizzarro world indeed! Fortunately, with great public support its no longer illegal.

“UPDATE: holy shit! maybe the support was more than i anticipated!!” he exclaimed. “[J]ust got a call from the city attorney personally here in Boulder telling me that he has ordered the police to NOT cite rock balancing under the city codes mentioned below!!!”

For those who may not know, Boulder Co. is a town that boarders Denver. So draconian action by the police would fit in a 3/4D sts center as it seems to be. Boulder has interesting and contrasting energies. One side is creative, inspiring and bright the other dark, controlling and crime ridden. Good to see with the voice of the people, the creative side won in this case.

The article above says Goggle is moving its headquarters to Boulder... So yet another enterprise moving inland. A quick search revealed Goggles other main centers are in NYC and California.
