Bjarke, having fun, bikes through Danish Pavilion he designed for his country in Shanghai EXPO. He never fails to put a smile on your face.

I must say, this does look pretty impressive!
amusing video. horrible audio track.
I always smile when I see Bjarke, and this building is perfect! Huzzah!
dear bjarke,
thank you for showing us that architecture isn't all about contracts, etc.
I love it when Bjarke gets stuck behind the chinese guy who cycles side to side...that shit happens every day on every single bicycle lane here in Beijing...there is just no way of making them go straight :)
isn't that how they drive as well?
why.., I think soundtrack goes perfect with the footage and the persona!
holz...yeah, kinda, but on the bikes and mopeds is much more noticeable.
I've seen lots of pics etc -- this is the first thing that gives me a sense of the building concept as anything more than form... much increased appreciation
@Cherith: Damn right. What's more Dutch thank Bjorke and biking? The Black Eyed Peas? I was afraid from the start that it was that damn song, and as soon as they began to sing I had to hit pause. "I got a feeling" I'll never finish watching.
some are not very open minded when it comes to rhythm of the percussion and pedaling, the variable moving image projection and timing, story editing, persuasion of words, singing and simply putting the parts together and create something that can captivate an audience more than two minutes.
nice way to present a building..
sorry wolfman jacks, you missed it because of the music.
it is a great design all around. i think, best pavilion i have seen. a lot of people who ride bikes also design beautiful buildings. get off the computer get on the bike!
keep the good work bjarke, thanks for the building's feeling and all.
o.
HotSoup - Bjarke and the pavilion are Danish, not Dutch.
