TED Ad Clip
TED.com is a website where I often get inspired by. They bring in speakers to talk about creative ideas on technology, education or design, and most of them deliver their speech in a 20 minute slot. And before every clip, they show a TED ad-like clip where video clips of invited speakers move in a 3D way, which they gather and rotate into a globe, and fades away into the TED logo - symbolising collective intelligence forming a part of TED's mission:
"We believe passionately in the power of ideas to change attitudes, lives and ultimately, the world. So we're building here a clearinghouse that offers free knowledge and inspiration from the world's most inspired thinkers, and also a community of curious souls to engage with ideas and each other." [TED, 2009].
Take a look: Ken Robinson claims schools kill creativity.

"Selling Democracy" in Europe
Posters produced by the Office of Military Government / U.S., the occupational authority in Germany after World War II. The office's documentary-film unit was the predecessor of the Marshall Plan motion-picture unit.The European Recovery Program (or the Marshall Plan, named after Gen. George C. Marshall, secretary of state under President Harry S Truman) funded the war-torn Europe from 1948 until 1950, "when aid to Europe morphed into military support. Credited with speeding up the continent's economic recovery as well as restoring democracy to post-Nazi Germany, it extended the offer of aid even to the Soviet Union and East-bloc nations, which declined the help".
Bergman, B. (2005) A Man, A Plan, A Film Series. [online] http://berkeley.edu/news/berkeleyan/2005/10/26_Marshall.shtml
"The German economic miracle was due largely to American aid, and the decrepit nature of the East German economy was due to Russia's stripping of it... but we attributed that to the failure of communism, and the success of capitalism." (Berdahl in Bergman, 2005)
Photo Montage by Chris Steele-Perkins
The Magnum photographer Chris Steele-Perkins created a photo montage for an exhibition in Tokyo, which can be read individually and interacting of each other also (Steele-Perkins, 2007).

Berlin, Israeli-Palestinian and Mexico-USA walls
Negotiated Border by Yadiel J Rivera-Diaz highlights 3 border walls of Berlin, Israeli-Palestinian and Mexico-USA. Rivera-Diaz claims that border lines establishe "a distinction between two groups" which can be "political difference, unequal capital distribution, and ideology" and "regardless of their intention for separation, these borders have become places of interaction between the two sides".
