The wonderful people at the Fubon Art Foundation commissioned FriendsWithYou to create a massive art piece to cover the façade of the Fubon Financial building in Taipei, Taiwan. As part of the Very Fun Park 2010 exhibition “Field of Dreams” became the focal point of the project and was created as a visual representation of this year's theme “looking up.” As the brilliantly multicolored flowers and bright colors appear on the horizon people are forced to look upwards, to discover that the cloud is smiling and asks you to rediscover the beauty of life. “Field of Dreams” will be on exhibit through July 2011. Take a look for yourself and let us know what you think.

Compiled, designed and published by Amelia Gregory of Amelia's Magazine fame. This new book features dozens of illustrations (by a selection of up and coming illustrators) that vividly bring to life a variety of yet-to-be-implemented contraptions and technologies that could provide renewable energy in the future. The book not only showcases illustration work along with interviews and profile pieces on each of the 40 featured illustrators, but also promotes clever ideas for renewable energy-creating technologies, with explanations of these concepts too.
