Some Monday Morning Awesome

It occurs to me that lately I’ve been putting all this stuff up on Twitter when I should be sharing it on my blog or Livejournal. So… here!

Geeks Are Sexy: The City of Samba – An Amazing New Tilt-Shift Movie by Keith Loutit and Jarbas Agnelli

The City of Samba from Jarbas Agnelli on Vimeo.

The Weasel King: Benice Equation

Basic Instructions: How to Calm Down

XKCD: So It Has Come to This

The Onion: Many Animals Harmed in Catering for New Film

…and finally…

Orbit Books: Elizabeth Moon on “My Fascination with Good Characters”

“Yes, of course I know characters are fiction – I made them up – but I have to feel them as if they were real in order to write them. And that means I’m vulnerable to their moods, their thoughts. … So I don’t want to spend a year inside the head of someone I wouldn’t want to be around in real life.”

Whew! Enjoy.

That was one surreal video. Cool, though!

The video was freaky, cool but freaky.

Etch-a-sketch gone wild.

The Onion would have been funnier if I couldn't see PETA actually doing that very thing.

The fractal thing is especially a hoot!

I'm not sure the Bernice Equation is actually an equation. It appears to be based on a circle rolling about a circle which rolls about a circle which rolls about a circle...

That would produce an infinite series, not an equation.
