"用罐裝空氣嚐嚐世界大城的滋味"
對大多數的人而言，環遊世界似乎是個遙不可及的夢想，然而現在有一個替代方法可以讓你不用真的身體力行，就能「嚐嚐」世界各個地方的滋味喔。受到電影「星際歪傳」的啟發，布拉格的一位攝影師，柯里魯丹科開始販售世界各大城的「罐裝空氣」，例如巴黎和紐約。中型罐子上貼著標籤，寫著濃縮空氣的混和物內容。例如，紐約的空氣的配方就包含有20%的帝國大廈、20%的自由女神、10%的時代廣場和10%的中央公園。有興趣的可以在魯丹科的網站Etsy.com買到這些罐頭，每個罐頭售價美金十元。
對話範例：
(罐頭空氣)尼克和奧利維亞是好朋友。尼克剛從紐約回來，他幫奧利維亞帶了一個紀念品。讓我們來聽聽他們的對話吧。
奧利維亞：歡迎回來！紐約之旅如何啊？
尼克：很棒！大蘋果果然有它的魅力！
奧利維亞：我好嫉妒啊！我一直都想要去紐約。
尼克：我知道！所以我幫你帶了一個超棒的紀念品回來讓妳開心！
奧利維亞：哦？你真是貼心！讓我看看！
尼克：來！是一罐紐約的空氣！這家公司宣稱這能讓妳感受到那個城市的靈魂，還能讓妳釋放壓力喔！
奧利維亞：恕我無禮，但我還寧可拿到一個磁鐵，或者明信片也好。
尼克：拜託！有什麼比得上一口新鮮空氣呢？
(Life) Getting a Taste of Global Cities through Canned Air
While a trip around the world may be a faraway dream for many of us, there is an alternative way that we can get a taste of the different places around the world without having to physically go there. Inspired by the movie Spaceballs, Kirill Rudenko, a photographer from Prague, is selling canned air from major cities across the globe, such as Paris and New York. The middle-sized cans come with labels that disclose the blend of concentrated air inside. For example, the New York air formula includes 20% Empire State Building, 20% Statue of Liberty, 10% Times Square and 10% Central Park. For those that are interested, the cans can be purchased through Rudenkos Etsy.com shop for US$10.00 each.
Dialogue Example:
(Canned Air) Nick and Olivia are friends. Nick has just come back from New York and he has bought Olivia a souvenir. Lets listen to their conversation.
Olivia: Welcome back! How was your trip to New York?
Nick: It was great! The big apple sure has its charm!
Olivia: Im so jealous! Ive always wanted to go to New York.
Nick: I know! Thats why I got you this awesome souvenir to cheer you up!
Olivia: Oh yeah? Thats so thoughtful of you! Let me see!
Nick: Here! Its a can of air from New York! The company claims that it can let you feel the spirit of the city as well as relieve your stress!
Olivia: No offence, but Id rather get a magnet, or even just a postcard.
Nick: Come on! Theres nothing like a breath of fresh air!
