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.
Wow!
Hey Kids!
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.

Don’t forget the movie! (see here on Hulu if you are in the States)
