Just in from the press! A new video from the Cyberbohemia group in OSGrid. The goal was to bring a “real world” painting to life in the virtual world of OSGrid. They used the 3D building tools in OSGrid to create a 3D model of master artist Rainer Huebner’s painting “Fliegende Welt II” and celebrated the OSG4B birthday party on July 23th 2011 “inside’ the 3D painting scene. I am grateful to Jürgen and co. for inviting me to write the soundtrack for this video and participate in this wonderful project. Rainer Huebner’s paintings are magic, I invite you to visit the Cyberbohemia region in OSGrid.

If you are fed up with the lies served up by the big food industries, you owe it to yourself and your loved ones to watch this potentially life saving documentary film. Forks Over Knives delivers the results of years of scientific research about our nutrition and the western diet. Most significant for me was the epic Chinese investigation plotting an “atlas of cancer” and cardiovascular disease. They pretty much can determine a relation between the foods and types of cancer produced in specific counties in China. Forks Over Knives is a no-nonsense attempt by American physician Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn and professor of nutritional biochemistry T. Colin Campbell, to reverse the unhealthy course of humanity. They are experts suggesting the best fuel for our bodies to run on.

The documentary exposes the decisions of the National Academy of Sciences, funded and influenced by corporate interests, they determine scientific policies which can make or break studies, revealing sometimes skewed results which the food corporations want you to hear. I liked how they showed several cases of diabetes and high cholesterol, after undergoing nutritional counseling and dietary rehabilitation, the patients underwent a “life-saving experience” improving their health and quality of life. “Let food be your medicine” said Hippocrates, considered by many as the father of modern medicine.

A life saver, this fast-paced documentary flows with essential disease preventing information, no boring moments. Kudos to these scientists for dedicating their lives to uncovering the truth and having the courage to stand up and make this movie. They’ve made eating a plant based diet, smart and cool. As the vegan firefighter said while CLIMBING UP the pole: “Real men eat plants”…
