    Interesting, the first video about sand art that I saw blew me away, to make sense of what you're watching in Mid's link better read the uploader's description.

    Kseniya Simonova, age 7...

    Mrs. Simonova: Look at you, useless girl! All you want to do is play in that damn sandbox and fingerpaint! All of those nice church dresses I make for you - ruined! Why can't you be more like Mrs. Kouriskov's little girl down the lane, Olga? She plays the piano and does ballet, while you use the condiments as paint and get sand in your underwear!
    Kseniya Simonova:...
    Mrs. Simonova: Are you even listening to me?
    Kseniya Simonova:...mama, may I have more sand?
    Mrs. Simonova:You'll never amount to anything!!

    17 years later: Kseniya won $125 grand from Ukraine's Got Talent. Olga works in a whorehouse.

    Seriously though, awesome shit right there. Incredibly useless, but mesmerizing. The way she interprets things visually must be a trip; most of us look at forms in real life and see colors and depth, while she sees finger swipes and gestures.

    What the hell is with the russian announcing in the background? Translates to
    Then it goes on into a classic Russian war song. According to one of my older relatives, who just happened to be near by, it sounds like the original announcement made during the instigation of war during WW II.
    I'm to lazy to listen or translate further, though.

    Sand art is great, it is mind blowing to see how fast those artist are with creating new images and stories from the previous ones.
