Big announcement at 2:20. The announcement of the winning city to host the 2016 world olympics. I knew chicago wasn’t going to get it. I live about 2 hours from chicago and let me tell you, its is prety bad down there. Just last school year there where about 30 students killed due to the violence, remember if you are a witness to a crime be the biger man reported to the police, you are not a rat or a snitch, you are just making the city a better place.. In a good note, if you love soccer check out this video www.youtube.com that game has been one of the best games that I have ever seen in my entire life the best goals are at 2:24 and my favorite at 4:10 Also if you want to see some extreme beatbox masters watch this vide, you have to watch the whole thing in order to appreciate the good sounds. www.youtube.com

A SuperUber foi convidada para desenvolver uma experiência impactante no lançamento da marca dos Jogos Olímpicos Rio 2016, e criou a primeira “performance” da marca dos Jogos Olímpicos Rio 2016: um mapeamento de projeção sobre a escultura (de 2 m de largura) da marca, apresentada pelo Comitê Rio 2016 em evento no dia 31 de dezembro no Copacabana Palace, no Rio de Janeiro, e projetado no telão para o público que lotou a praia de Copacabana na festa de Réveillon. O conteúdo são animações criadas especialmente para a volumetria. A instalação preencheu a escultura com luz e movimento, criando uma experiência alinhada com os conceitos da marca, criada pela Tátil Design: movimento, tri-dimensionalidade.

The content are animations created specially for the volume.

Big Guy Zee here to report the news that the Brazilian city of Rio de Janeiro succesfully won the bid to host the 2016 Olympic games after beating Madrid in the final round. For Rio it was celebrations all round, whilst the people of Madrid were not so pleased. Your opinions on this story are most welcome, so feel free to subscribe, rate and comment! Much Love!

This is a theme that I compose to be used (if somebody wants to use) at the Braziliam Olympic games in 2016 (if the world doesn’t end in 2012…). To early? Well, I like to think that I’m ahead of my time, hehehe!!

The city of Chicago spent tens of millions of dollars over two years in an effort to bring the 2016 Summer Olympic Games to the Midwest United States. Those efforts ended on October 2nd when the International Olympic Committee (IOC) voted in favor of Rio De Janeiro, Brazil. As VOA’s Kane Farabaugh reports, the loss is a stunning defeat for the adopted hometown of President Barack Obama.
