With films going the way of all action no plot and a lot of modern art so inane, perhaps it is time for video games to become the art form of the 21st century. Films combine storytelling and character analysis with a stark visual styles that have the power to astound, but this type of …
Shit Art for Rich People
My family has a lot, and I mean a lot of shit art in its houses. There’s some real tripe from Tracy Emin, a picture of man in a carpet, some prints and aside from it all being universally awful, it’s also very very expensive. Since so much modern art is toilet, I’m going to …
Facebook founding fathers?
A lot of good stuff, real good stuff has been written about Facebook, culminating in the movie adaptation The Social Network but no one has really got to the crux of the debate of just who Mark Zuckerberg really is. A recluse? A misunderstood genius? A nice-guy-really-don’t-believe-the-movie-hype? Or is he, really, Lord Bernard Stuart!?!?!?!1!! This …
Good Clips
Just a series of clips, that I might write about later, that really shocked or amazed me. The first from an episode of the exceptional Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex 2nd Gig: I’ve always liked those twist moments, when out of nowhere comes a bolt of awesome that just makes you smile. It’s …

London Underground Map 2011
The tube in central London is a mess, no more so than the Hammersmith and City Line that is the only line in all the world that doesn’t tell you how long it will be until the next train arrives. I’d be willing to wager that outside of rush hour, every train on the pink …
DJ Applejuice is back!
Many years ago, I bought some decks and taught myself how to DJ. Only I wasn’t very good (technically and taste-wise). After years I still made errors but it was fun all the same. My friend had this mix of mine from 2002 and listening to it brings back a lot of memories. Forgive the, …
Yahoo Answers
Why can’t I make gravy? Why do headphone wires always form knots when you put them down for a second? Why do I like songs sung by females giving empowering advice to other females? Why can I never find my socks? What happens when a tornado meets a volcano? Why aren’t new films better than …
Lookalike
I couldn’t really find a good pic of Maurice, but watching the Madagascar movies, Foreman from House looks just like him. I swear the animators must have used his likeness.
Wagner – Addicted to Love
Holy what?! Wagner’s song was the stuff of nightmares like some sort of stalker / Josef Fritzl hybrid. I’m sure he was trying to come across as seductive but he butchered Robert Palmer’s song, admittedly no worse than he does with every other song, in some sort of sexual predator way. The lights are on, but …
