Nasubi

Nippon Television's (NTV) producers have obviously never heard of the Geneva Convention. If they had, they wouldn't have treated poor Nasubi the way they did. They wouldn't have stripped him naked and shut him in an apartment, alone with no food, furniture, household goods, or entertainment. They wouldn't have kept him there for over a year until he had won $10 000 in prizes by sending in postcards to contests. They wouldn't have cut him off from the world and they would have told him that he was on nation-wide TV.

Near the end of May, Nasubi's rice ran out, and he was reduced to eating dog food. It was heart wrenching seeing him prey every night for rice.

Invisible Chinese man

Liu Bolin, the 35 year old artist from Shandong, China has mastered the art of camouflaging himself against virtually any background.
The talented Liu Bolin says his art is a protest against the actions of the Government, who shut down his art studio in 2005 and persecutes artists. It’s about not fitting into modern society. Despite problems with Chinese authorities, Liu’s works are appreciated at an international level.
Liu often works over 10 hours straight on his art to achieve masterful perfection.

This amazing paper craft art installation by Wataru Itou from Tokyo, has taken over four years to complete. Aside from the paper and the lighting, it includes a moving train! It's an unimaginably time consuming thing to create... I'm in awe.
