Funny how some movies just jump out of the humdrum fog of all the gillions that get made to become iconic. The Big Lebowski is clearly one, and I wonder why. It met with unenthusiastic reception when it opened but became a cult classic. How do some movies or tv shows manage to skip over [...]
I love the still light juxtaposed against the balanced run timed to the train in this photo. I think modern life and art are often a lot like this: running to try and time our leaps to the machine in the light of the unnoticed sun.

“Mad Hatter’s Tea, winner of the Informational Graphics award, is taken from a book called Alice’s Adventures in a Microscopic Wonderland. Colleen Champ and Dennis Kunkel, at Concise Image Studios, carefully built scenes from Lewis Carroll’s story using microscope images of insects and other small animals.” Creeps me out imagining them manipulating the microscopic world [...]
This artist, Zhong Biao, caught my eye reading an article about Asian art fairs today, and then I found this photo of the painting on Flickr, thanks to (Fred). I’d like to be hopping around Asia checking out the art this fall, wouldn’t you?
(Though I wouldn’t want to miss the party Indyish is throwing [...]
