Staff Blog / We crowned the 2012 Vimeo Awards winners and kicked off our Festival
The 2012 Vimeo Awards totally happened last night in New York City! We celebrated the world’s best videos, did some crazy stuff with technology, stared slack-jawed at Reggie Watts and Beardyman, and sang “Happy Birthday” to a dude named Daniel. We’ll give you a full recap of the show soon, but in the meantime we want you to know who took home the hardware. Watch all the winning videos right this instant, and/or aim your eyes below to get intimate with the Grand Prize winner: “Symmetry” by Everynone. Huge CONGRATS to all our winners!
The other exciting news is that the Vimeo Festival kicked off today! It’s a wild weekend of riveting conversations, skill-sharpening workshops, and screenings of our favorite videos. Get all the latest details on the Festival + Awards Internet website, and connect your brain stem to our real-time social networking updates via the Festival + Awards Twitter feed.

That was beautiful. A lovely perspective of the "symmetry" of duality, and the parallels that we so often miss. I hope to one day, say what I see, as eloquently as you have done here.
thanks "everyone" you made my evening.

I loved it / I hated it... I want more / I crave less... Start it again / Bury it forever... Hmm, I cannot help but recall the Law of Conservation of Mass-Energy: the total amount of both mass and energy in the universe is constant; said another way, mass and energy can neither be created nor destroyed, only interconverted. :-)
