Beever produces some really creative work, and his web gallery is worth browsing. Click on 'read more', below, to see an example of what one of the drawings looks like from the wrong viewpoint.

The following is a music video for the song 1 2 3 4 performed by Feist. It’s a catchy song, it’s simple, fun, and a great way to start enjoying the weekend a few hours early.

I think the video deserves merit not only for it’s creativity, but also because it’s the exact opposite of most music videos on television today. In the age of Mtv, viewers are bombarded with quick camera cuts, flashy effects and an overall sense that you may have a seizure at any moment. Feist does away with all of that, and instead allows viewers to simply relax and enjoy themselves.
