Bjork - Wanderlust music video

April 4, 2008 – 1:07 am

Although I’m not a huge Bjork fan, I really liked her new music video for “Wanderlust”. It’s a really strange (surprise, surprise) 3-d animation style. It creates a very surreal atmosphere. The video is pretty big, but it’s really good quality.
I couldn’t help making a silly little animated gif of one of [...]

February 27, 2008 – 11:50 pm

‘We didn’t know how to say goodbye. We walked from his house to mine and back again, just to be together a little while longer. Boys of twelve don’t promise to write to each other. We made jokes, because we didn’t know what else to do.’
This is the first known image of Peter, the [...]

Yes We Can

February 3, 2008 – 1:25 am

Can you feel that? That breath of fresh air seeping under the smog. That slight shift in the wind. It’s the first glimpse of new hope. It’s Obamania.
