obligatory link dump

-asian girl takes her portrait every day for 3 years, makes a movie out of it, people over at digg make a bunch of comments how all asians look the same. pretty interesting time lapsing going on (look out for the split second shot of a blond wig)…oh wait, sorry, "time-rasping", that better digg?

-to all the los angelinos: 7th Annual Festival of Fantasy, Horror & Science Fiction Brazil, RoboCop, Starship Troopers, The Omega Man, Last Man on Earth (1964), Conan double-header…not bad at all, too bad i’m poor. also, for losanjealousians midnight ridazz is going strong, with over 1300 people at the last one, think i’ll be over there this friday…need to find a bike route to get over there from where you are? bike routing allows to input variables and get a detailed way around, including hill changes.

-since i’ve been introduced to guitar hero (and it’s pc counterpart Frets on Fire) i’ve been hearing songs differently, and the White Room by Cream has one of the better openings in history…wait a second, when the hell did wikipedia start having pages for songs?

-imagining the Tenth Dimension (hover over the navigation bar on the left and click on "imagining")…..oh it works, flash makes it nice, i get it, all concievable universes and timelines contained within a single point, all except the "fold" and why it looks like a very abstract vagina.

-if you haven’t heard john hodgman (the pc guy in the "apple vs pc" commercials) & jonathon coulton’s 700 hobo names by now, you really ought to (it’s an hour long but well worth it). or you could read the master list of names. there’s a whole project devoted to illustrating each of the 700, there’s even a flickr group…currently i’m working on "#447: Pirandello, the Many-Bearded" and then i may move on to "#502: Emergency Exit Aisle Gustav Nook".

-yesterdays news: Study: Sexy music triggers teen sex….i love the use of the word "triggers"…for the last time, first rule of statistics: effects are not the cause, second rule of statistics: do not talk about statistics. i know i’m lame for using that since EVERYBODY does, but here…i actually mean it, stop using statistics please, i mean 60% of the time, it works everytime, you got me?

-i would say upgrade your ichat, but really, with google talk around to pimp, why would i?

-and finally, apprently i now design shoes, guess it’s a natural evolution

also, joe lieberman is a mark-ass trick, way to support your party fuckwit.
