Great Kinetic Typography



More great kinetic typography concerning one of my favorite scenes in movie history, from the (more than brilliant) There Will Be Blood. There is tons of this out there on YouTube, but this is one of the best. Oh, this is awesome.

Mac Turns 25


The Apple Macintosh home computer turns 25 today. This is what computers looked like when I was young. I remember playing Oregon Trail on floppy discs that were actually floppy. It took me years to come around, but now I am a convert to the Mac way. Cool run through here of the major updates through the years. Check it out. Happy B day Mac!

New Glasvegas Video Is Awesome

Wow. Wow. Wow.....Glasvegas great as usual! Fast becoming one of the best bands around....it's weird to see them so "smoothed out" for this video - they are pretty no frills normally. Either way, it's great stuff.

Double Lincoln










Two very funny pics of Abraham Lincoln. Emo Lincoln on the 5 dollar bill is hilarious, and so is BoomBox Lincoln. Gotta love photoshop!

Cool Caps


Cool vintage design on the bottlecaps. Awesome stuff.

Another Great Helvetica Poster


Another great poster promoting a showing of Helvetica. Again, it's on Tuesday the 27th at 11 and 2. Be there!

This Machine Kills Fascists


Just a little spotlight on good ole' Woody Guthrie today.

In the squares of the city, In the shadow of a steeple;
By the relief office, I'd seen my people.
As they stood there hungry, I stood there asking,
Is this land made for you and me?
As I went walking, I saw a sign there,
And on the sign there, It said "no trespassing."
But on the other side, it didn't say nothing!
That side was made for you and me.
By the way, this is pretty much the coolest picture ever taken.
