The Dog Who Was A Cat Inside
This wordless short film by animator Siri Melchior, originally commissioned by Channel 4 Television, is both poignant and delightfully playful.

I was pleased to be an artist in residence at the innovative desktop 3D printing company MakerBot Industries. Takeshi Murata was another artist in residence and he printed a mind-blowing 3D zoetrope recently on view at Frieze art fair in London. It was related to his wonderful I, Popeye animation.

Cliff Evans creates video installations from found imagery
My friend Cliff Evans creates amazing video installations using found imagery taken from the internet. Like moving Dadaist collages for modern times, the animations are subversive and also have a wonderfully subtle wit to them.
Brilliant animated video for new Gotye single
We love the animated video for the new single from Belgium-born Melbourne-based multi-instrumentalist and producer, Gotye. He releases Easy Way Out on November 28, the first single to be taken from his forthcoming album, Making Mirrors.

How the Internet’s biggest sites looked at launch
How the times have changed! Check out these awesome screenshots of how some of our favourite websites looked at the very moment they launched back in the day, then be grateful for the savvy workings of digital designers. Mind you, I think the New York Times back then kinda looked easier to read. Read more

Hire a professional dumper to end your relationship
Marketing executive Jonathan Kiekbush has a pretty interesting night job: he breaks up people’s relationships. That’s right, for a small set fee (£5 plus expenses), he’s a professional dumper. Trivial fact: most of his clients are men. Not surprisingly, as our friends at Oddity Central have noted, he’s single himself.

I’m not usually into super-slick illustration, but Rory Kurtz’s stuff is really amazing. He’s able to render cinematic depth-of-field contrasts as well as exaggerated angles and foreshortening. It’s not surprising that he’s done a lot of work based on current films. Read more
Buying a brand new pair of kicks is already a jizzworthy experience, but customizing your own? Well, that’s just a little bit too exciting. At Pimp My Kicks you can deck out sneakers from dunks to chucks with whatever your heart desires. Fill out an order form with your ideas and images and in no time at all you’ll be the sneaker envy of all your mates.
Rarely is a film politically poignant as well as wonderfully written, acted and shot. The second feature from director Kimberly Peirce of Boys Don’t Cry was inspired by her brother, who joined the army, and was only possible after months of meticulous research. Read more
Belgian architect Vincent Callebaut is an award-winning designer with varied projects. This one, entitled The Lilypad, is nothing short of amazing. It’s an eco-city, floating on water, with the ability to accommodate upwards of 50,000 people. If built as designed, this structure (which uses most, if not all, available environmental technologies) would sustainably produce more power than it would consume.
The Boston Globe has posted some pretty phenomenal pictures taken from the space shuttle Discovery during its recent mission. It’s almost impossible to imagine that one day views like these could become mundane. Read more
Oh man, close your eyes if you will and transport yourself to a place far, far away; where disco is in, polyester is up, and everyone bows long and deep to the gravitational pull of the almighty afro. Sister Self-Doubt by The Shakes takes me there. It takes me front and centre, feeling that slippery, incidenary groove as it crunches my spine and works its way to my feet. Hmmm, the feet. It’s always in the feet. And now I’m dancing and twisting, onwards and upwards, like a manic spinning top thinking nothing of today and even less of tomorrow.
Listen to The Shakes track, Sister Self Doubt.
