Sitting here watching Eurovision (downside of living with an Italian!) but sidetracked by the background artist for the Ukrainian entry, who apparently won Ukraine’s Got Talent in 2009. [Sand artist Kseniya Simonova](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8yYcEX5O5a4). I’ve never seen sand animation before, but it’s seriously cool.
