#163: The information that you need

A gallery full of posters, leaflets, booklets etc that give all the information that the town, region and/or country the gallery is in is lacking.  

#162: Fill yourself with the beautiful stuff of the world

Poster.

Scenes of a teenage vampire engaged in various acts, partaking the fruits of knowledge, so to speak.  In one they are reading in their bedroom, surrounded by books; in another they are browsing library shelves; here the cinema, there listening to music, or dancing, or in an art gallery and so on.  Arranged around the pictures are these words:

“Read. Read as much as possible. Read the big stuff, the challenging stuff, the confronting stuff, and read the fun stuff too. Visit galleries and look at paintings, watch movies, listen to music, go to concerts –  be a little vampire running around the place sucking up all the art and ideas you can. Fill yourself with the beautiful stuff of the world. Have fun. Get amazed. Get astonished. Get awed on a regular basis, so that getting awed is habitual and becomes a state of being. Fully understand your enormous value in the scheme of things because the planet needs people like you… who can minister to the world with positive, mischievous energy, young people who seek spiritual enrichment and who see hatred and disconnection as the corrosive forces they are. These are manifest indicators of a human being with immense potential… A little smart vampire full of raging love, amazed by the world – that will be you, my young friend.” - Nick Cave
