Fathom HQ's Favorite Links: February 20, 2016 Edition
What we were clicking on and talking about this week at #FathomHQ.
For the past few weeks, I've been convincing #TeamFathom that Snapchat is the next big thing. To further my point, Tribeca Film Festival is partnering with Snapchat to feature the ten best 200-second shorts filmed on the app. It's unclear if we'll enter, but you should still follow our story at @fathomwaytogo for a fun but not-so-award-winning look into our daily lives. – Daniel, editorial assistant
Italian artist and photographer Olivo Barbieri helicoptered 240 miles of Adriatic coastline to capture the "human choreography" in his Adriatic Sea (Staged) Dancing People. The image series is on view this winter at Yancey Richardson Gallery in NYC's Chelsea. - Jeralyn, editorial director
I'm always that one person who gets told off by museum security guards because my face gets a little too close to the paintings. So I'm thrilled to discover this interactive website exploring Dutch painter Hieronymus Bosch's famous "Garden of Earthly Delights." All the details!!! – Becky, assistant editor
Hats off to our pals at Netted for launching their Los Angeles City Guide, a list of the 21 best apps and services for getting around and making the most of the city. – Pavia, founder
Finally! A piece of luggage designed for space-starved New Yorkers. – Berit, editor
I'm trying to hit Smithsonian American Art Museum's Wonder before it closes in May. The exhibit is immersive, colorful, and delightful, with large-scale installations. Be sure to Instagram Gabriel Dawe's Plexus A1 #nofilter. — Karsten, intern
Someone built their bedroom into a subway tunnel in Berlin. And nobody knows what it's doing there. Is it a statement piece, or is this what happens when warehouses get too expensive to live in? – Daniel
Architectures is a fantastic new YouTube series: Each 26-minute episode highlights an iconic building and the architect(s) behind it. – Becky
At New York Fashion Week a few days ago, Miu Miu launched the film Seed, the latest installment in their Women's Tales series. The film, by award-winning director Naomi Kawase, follows a willowy and nymph-like Japanese girl from nature to city. Watch it below. – Pavia
"Seed," Miu Miu Women's Tales by director Naomi Kawase.
Adding these to my bucket list: Obama recently introduced three new national monuments that make up nearly 1.8 million acres of Southern California's beautiful and photo-worthy desert. – Berit
