David Bowie is...

Yesterday, me and my M&C tutorial class went down to ACMI to visit the David Bowie Is exhibition!!!
It was such a great time and an awesome exhibition!

Okay, truth be told, at first I thought this guy is a freak.
Like, he has different eye colors! (Although it's a bit cool, it's a bit freaky as well :p)
And his voice is, you know...
But most of all, his "Space Odity" song! Like, why put up a song like that??

BUT!
Thankfully this exhibition explained all aspects of David Bowie.
We got to see his visions that were then translated into works of art. His costumes, video clips, stage designs..
Do you know that most of those were his own creations? Yes, he collaborated with various designers, but he actually did a lot in shaping his own image!
He's not just some Brits seeking sensation, he himself is sensational if I may say so myself.
He's not afraid to be outside of the box. He re-invented himself; he presented to the world real, living characters that we'll never see again.

I love how he was actually involved in everything. He wrote the songs, designed the  stage, looked for designers to collaborate in making his costumes, he even drew some of his own CD sleeves! WOW. An amazingly hard working artist.

Yeah, I still think he's a freak. But a really cool one.

I'm inspired to do what he does though: to give all that he got to make sure he truly says what he wants to say.

If this exhibition ever comes to your town, give it a go!
It's a well organized exhibition, (although you might got bored at the beginning, when you don't know who he is yet), and we were given this really cool devise with a headphone that could actually detect where you are standing at, and let you hear the appropriate information about that display you're looking at! Very cool.


This is why m&c is really cool. Although we learn lotsa theories for the exams, we get to go to awesome excursions :p

CHEERS!
