Walk in the Woods from Superbrothers: Sword & Sworcery on Vimeo.

This iPad/iPhone game is amazing! It is so beautiful and the sound is fantastic. Every detail looks and sounds thought out and carefully crafted.

Be it boys in high heels, girls in stuffed animal hats, wearing a shiny silver unitard to the bar or even just a solid grey wardrobe. It is awesome that they are brave enough and free enough, to embrace what matters to them.

When only 1 in 5 friends even had the internet, and you had to choose between using the phone or hooking up to the internet. Now sometimes I look up and realize I’m coding on my laptop, streaming Netflix on the little computer hooked up to the tv, and playing Words With Friends on my iPhone all at the same time. Gluttons!

But when the internet was becoming an everyday thing in the 90′s, Hollywood had a good time with it. These movies are hilarious and awesome.

My favourite is when they are ‘surfing the internet’ in Hackers and everything is neon and circut boards.

Osarizawa Factory and Mine, Sports World Ruins

This is an amazing article by Michael John Grist, a freelance photographer and novelist. I always feel the urge to pull over and explore when I see run down houses or buildings from the road, and seeing vegetation overtake a forgotten structure is a nice reminder of how resilient and tenacious nature actually is.

Edit: Grist has a Vimeo account! So good: http://vimeo.com/user464007

What! I love the Dark Crystal and now they are making a sequal!? I am keeping my fingers crossed that they do everything old school with puppets and zero CG.

This is making me so excited I want to go home and have a Jim Henson-athon.

Thanks for following my blog, and being here for my 100th post.

The internet is changing the world: I don’t have to go to a library to find out how refrigerators work — I can look it up on my Wikipedia app on my iPhone. It is astounding, this giant global library of wonder (and crap).

The best thing about the internet is that it can make you aware of things in the world close to you that you didn’t know were there, so please today find something close — that is actual and not virtual — and go see it in person.

♥ Laura
