Wolf and Pig
This video really illustrates the line between a photograph and motion pictures -- a line of topical interest to me. There's a magical wonder that happens with an object in motion. Even with the jerkiness of the low fps our mind wants to believe that there is a...

Designing the Post Terrestrial on Twitter
Just back from the Geoff Manaugh talk @SVA, "Designing the Post-Terrestrial". Great stuff. Oddly enough I found it a very visceral experience. Not necessarily what I was expecting from a lecture on architecture. BLDGBLOG, Manaugh's blog on architecture and design, is...

SuperNews Twouble with Twitters // Current This is too priceless. Just oodles of lulz.
Cracked Keeps Nailing my Faults
I like these semi-scientific analysises of our human faults Cracked comes up with: 5 Ways 'Common Sense' Lies To You Everyday. "For instance, procrastination can happen for a lot of reasons--you drank too much the night before, or you're feeling uninspired, or it's...

Blend up your Election Coverage
This website Baudrillards Blender seems pretty intense though I lack the time to delve into it too deeply. Basically a blender for election coverage specify your criteria and hit your blend mode, you're rewarded with a news clip from 2008 election coverage. (via...
