Free Hugs
Something not very related to art, but something that noone can have too much of; FREE HUGS! The hugger is Juan Mann and the music is from the Sick Puppies.

I think that the Americans (I am also included in this.) Should start a hug-evoloution. Everyone in America is to busy nowadays and a hug is a very much needed necessity.

Yeah, I think most western countries don't hug enough. I remember after coming back to Australia, from spending a while in Turkey (where hugs and kisses are frequently given between men&men, women&men, and women&women), I hugged a guy and almost got myself into a fight with him.
That probably says more about the monkeys I was spending time with at the time than Australian culture in general, but the majority of AUS, UK, and USA seem cold.

Why the hell am I crying? Maybe I just need one myself. Thank you for this! I manage a bookstore crew of 25 and with such things as 'sexual harassment' policy, it's hard to feel like I could pull this off......but I really want to. Or something kinda like it anyway. THANK YOU FOR PUTTING THIS IS MY FACE.

Good point Bobbie. I wouldnt encourage hugging coworkers in this day and age.
Would be interesting to see a workplace where you had to hug the boss before and after work ;-)

"Free Hugs" reveals the essence of the fine arts. They depict the vision that is present in the dreams of the today but absent in our nitty-gritty. However, you can make a miracle and the miracle may be yours ... In other words, I am happy to welcome you to my world on a web. Thank you.
I smiled the whole four times I watched it this morning. Great hugs to you too.

This video was a great social experiment, an exploration of civics, and an artistic film all wrapped into one. I'm impressed! I will be sharing it with my students at the art school at which I teach!
