In this era of special effects it’s getting harder and harder to tell reality from fantasy. Now, you not only have to evaluate the evidence but you need to render a judgment as to the trustworthiness of the folks providing the evidence. But some things, I suppose, you just have to take on faith. In … Continue reading Laser Magician
I *really* don’t have a problem with this. When folks with no talent whatsoever interrupt a public event just for a little fame. I think it’s entirely appropriate that they get to experience something that would normally occur in that venue…
Again my proclivity towards altered-time recordings leads me to this interesting video. The most amazing thing to me is exactly how smooth the images on the posted bills are knowing how they were done manually (not CGI). In the artist’s own words: “Myself and a couple have friends have entered the above into the Modest … Continue reading Home Mad Music Video

I remember seeing this ad back before the Wii was even released, certainly not on TV, probably as part of a viral marketing campaign. You can’t say … Continue reading Nintendo Wii vs Sony Playstation 3 in Mac vs PC format

It’s a little long at 8 … Continue reading Amateur Animal Kingdom
Woah, I got chills. It *looks* promising… I just wish it was a mini-series instead of a full blown series. But can the franchise survive without California’s Governor?
I don’t know where this is but it looks pretty amazing to me. I wonder how big they really are? Isn’t it astonishing the things you can share in without having to actually be there? Our breadth of experience versus folks who lived even a generation ago has increased incalculably.
I am such a sucker for both slow motion and time lapse photography. We have a perception of the world that is determined largely by our perception of time. To slide either forward or backward along the scale between short-lived beings such as insects or long-existing objects such as stars can dramatically alter your appreciation … Continue reading Slow Motion Water Balloon Pop
This little turtle definitely has a spirit worthy of our fun loving “Zippy”. Zippy had a great personality and did this with both our cat and our iguana. The pecking order had nothing to do with size and everything to do with hutzpah.
