What if the Earth had rings like Saturn, is an interesting 3D animated video created by Roy Prol. It captures what the rings of Saturn would look like from different cities and latitudes across the Earth. It’s interesting to imagine how it would have effected culture throughout time. It would have greatly influenced religion, mythology and navigation. Roy seems to have taken much time in researching the physics and such, as he mentions in one section the rings are limited to the size of Earths ‘Roche’ limit.

Cloisonnism is a style of post-Impressionist painting with bold and flat forms separated by dark contours. The term was coined by critic Edouard Dujardin on the occasion of the Salon des Indépendants, in March 1888. Artists Émile Bernard, Louis Anquetin, Paul Gauguin, Paul Sérusier, and others started painting in this style in the late 19th century. The name evokes the technique of cloisonné, where wires (cloisons or "compartments") are soldered to the body of the piece, filled with powdered glass, and then fired. Many of the same painters also described their works as Synthetism, a closely related movement.

A biography series thoroughly documents the life and work of Picasso. Subtitled A Primitive Soul, Picasso's Spanish roots are depicted in detail through the images that reoccur in his work as a painter. His father was a painter, although Picasso quickly surpassed him and is quoted as having said, In art, one has to kill one's father. In Paris he quickly rose to fame, supported by fellow artists and collectors, although he was haunted by his main competitor, Matisse.

How Art Made The World - Documentary. Pictures of the human body fill our TV screens, magazines, billboards, almost our every waking moment. Through the ages artists have been obsessed with the human form. The range of bodies they have created is breathtaking, but yet they share one thing in common... none of these images resembles a real human being. So why is our modern world dominated by images of the body that are unrealistic?
