The meme is in the form of a video that began being replicated according to a similar concept by many people. The art form of the meme was established in a video uploaded on February 2 by The Sunny Coast Skate, five teenagers from Queensland, Australia. The videos last 30-something seconds and feature an excerpt from the song "Harlem Shake" by electronic musician Baauer. Usually, a video begins with one person (often helmeted or masked) dancing to the song alone for 15 seconds, surrounded by other people not paying attention or unaware of the dancing individual. When the bass drops, the video switches to the entire crowd doing a crazy convulsive dance for the next 15 seconds." source Wikipedia "The Harlem Shake is an Internet meme that went viral on YouTube in February 2013.

Hope all your plans for this year will be realised. I am pretty excited about 2013 and am sure this will be a terrific year. I noticed online that lots of people are working on their personal time capsule of 2013: a 2013 jar. In there they will collect notes with all the positive things that they experience throughout the year. Great idea! I will do the same. Next to that I will start up the visual time capsule for 2013. Looking forward to that. Now lets make this year count. Happy New Year to you all! Hope all your plans for this year will be realised.

Posts run by us so quickly day-by-day that we cannot keep up. Let alone keep track of what happened last week, last month or within the last year. Who cares? Well I guess I do. Every day I get thrilled, excited and greedy by what I find online. But then it disappears to page 2, 3, 4… A year has (almost) gone by and I hardly even remember what our lives in 2012 looked like in color, design, prints, fashion, illustrations... because we are already looking out for the next big thing. Information, insights, beauty and memories get lost. Therefor I work on a yearly overview of what made our visual lives in 2012.

"Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response (ASMR) is a term used to describe a sensory experience characterized by a tingling sensation in the head and scalp, which can be triggered by sounds like whispering or brushing, and visual stimulus like painting or drawing. On YouTube, the phenomenon inspired the creation of “whisperer” videos, in which people attempt to trigger the viewer’s ASMR by speaking in a soft voice and making various sounds with inanimate objects."
