Hey everybody, 

         A while back I had stumbled upon the MountainFilm Festival at Telluride website. It is a four day celebration of the "indominatble spirit".  All types of people get together, from film makers, photographers, designers, to mountaineers,  and conservationists, who come together for a short week of art, celebrating our world and the human spirit.  It's a place where people garner conversations for a better tomorrow, and I wish I could have been there this year.  However my calender has already been marked for next year, and I'm saving my pennies to make sure I get out there.

        But anyways, today I was gauking over their website again, imagining myself there for this past years festival and I found what I thought was a really cool sort of graphic history of the festival.  It's a page that has  30 years of  posters advertising the festival.  It's kind of a bummer that you can't enlarge them, but even so I thought it was really interesting to see how a single event can be interpretted so many different ways over the years.  It's also cool to see how styles change through time.  Take a look and check out these posters. 

And here is a cool video about the festival.  It gives a brief history on how it came to be, and what it is today. 

Check out MountainFilm and I hope you become as excited about it as I am, and maybe I'll see you there in 2010.

peace,
