        There were some illustrations from last months Believer that made me stumble upon two things I thought were really cool.

        First, a firefox add-on that turns all the adds in your internet browser into 'art.': Ad-art

      • twitter, or borg picard is my captain
        11/16/08


        Despite the fact that twitter as a communication technology is tantamount to signing up for micro-surveillance, at least we are only subjecting ourselves to being observed by everyone, and no one in particular. Let's just not fall into the trap of broadcasting spatial data concernin

      • NY Medical Study Weekend Extravaganza
        11/16/08


        After leaving the jet lag study I did for money, not science, I stumbled upon a signing of Rafael Grampá's Mesmo Delivery (see art above) at Desert Island (an indie comic store in Liz's neighborhood). Then, I headed over to a house show where The Vivian Girls were playing with

        I got to see Mike Mignola talk about the future of Hellboy and Lynda Barry speak on her new book 'What it is' (excerpt above) at Wordstock in Portland last weekend. Shannon Wheeler was there tabling too. It was nice to stumble in on all that.

        11/08/08


        I was looking at reviews for Quarantine and realized it was a remake, so I watched the original Spanish film [REC]. Some people said it was like Blair Witch but a zombie movie, and I see that, but I didn't like Blair Witch or think it was at all scary and this was. Who thought that

      • our house in the middle of the street
        11/06/08



        I realized recently that most of my friends and family have no idea what my house looks like, yet it is a house I have lived in twice for extended periods. The first picture was stomped upon by ghosts, but you can see my legs in the corner of the door. The rest of the picture shows
