Sixteen years ago, one man stood alone on a grassy hill at a music festival in Washington State, USA, and started dancing by himself. People glanced over and looked away. Some laughed. His roommate leaned in and warned him people were filming him. He did not stop. Then one stranger got up and joined him. Then another. Then the hillside tipped. Within minutes, hundreds of people were sprinting from across the field to be part of something that, thirty seconds earlier, had been one man being laughed at in a field. Someone filming from higher up the hill said quietly: "See what one man can do. One man can change the world." The clip spread across the internet in 2009. Entrepreneur Derek Sivers played it at a TED conference to explain how movements actually begin. Not with the first person brave enough to start, he argued, but with the first person willing to join them. Collin Wynter, the man dancing alone, later said he had no idea he had done anything special. He was just tired of watching everyone sit still.

In 1983, exactly 43 years ago, a girl from Itaberaí (Goiás) slipped past the security of Brazilian President Figueiredo and handed him a letter asking for a house for her mother, who was a domestic worker and unemployed. The girl’s request led to the construction of the Valentina Figueiredo housing complex in João Pessoa, Paraíba, which is home to 22,000 residents and was named after the president’s mother.

In Copenhagen, there is a regulation that all important bike paths must be cleared by 08:00 a.m. at the latest in the event of snowfall, so that people can safely ride their bikes to work👏

Native History

Tracing shadows, art technique

Just after sunset near Flagstaff, Arizona, a developing storm cloud caught the last light of day in a rare way. As the Sun dipped below the horizon, its rays passed through a thin veil of high-altitude ice crystals above the storm. Instead of a simple glow, the light split and spread into shifting bands of color that rippled along the cloud’s edge. From the ground, it looked like a painted wave suspended in the sky. This wasn’t fire or aurora. It was cloud iridescence...an optical effect that appears when sunlight diffracts through tiny, uniformly sized droplets or ice crystals. The swirling shapes came from upper-level winds stretching the cloud layers while the color followed the light. Moments like this don’t last long. As the Sun dropped lower and the angle changed, the spectrum faded back into gray, leaving behind only the memory of a cloud that seemed to glow from within.

Sitting Bull said Western culture was infected by what he called a disease for the love of possessions and that the people in it were made to live by rules that the rich could break, but the poor could not. He was right and it proves that the dominant culture is superior to none!

Ivy Lab is coming to an end. After more than 10 years spreading our wings through a wild array of leftfield beats, we've decided to call time on our flagship project and look ahead to new adventures in sound. 2026 will be our last year of operation. [1/4]
