Even in a galaxy far far away, males can be creepy and gross regardless of race or affiliation — just like in this galaxy! Watch as Princess Leia is propositioned numerous times in numerous alien languages as she walks down the streets of New York City:
Funny. No more though. I don’t think the world needs another one of these.

Speaking of chalk art; this music video features hand-drawn animations of a little girl riding her bigwheel through the increasingly surreal landscape of her colourful world:
Some of the drawings commemorate events or cheer on sports teams, while others are simply a way for students to express themselves or show their love for a favourite anime or a beloved character — either way, these are all great:
Animated flipbooks spotted at a Japanese convention (Hyper Japan, London) that feature a number of unexpected designs that make use of negative space and secret “compartments” that are gradually revealed as you flip through the books.

Damn. I think I’m in lust.

…Close enough. Because of my unparalleled high tolerance level and curiosity in people, I have watched more than a few conspiracy theorists drone on, and on, and on about their wacky ideas, but this one is slightly more plausible, albeit still wacky. I’m unsure about the whole evil, satanic symbolism and worshiping angle, but if Monster Beverage Corporation’s marketing strategy hasn’t anything to do with subtextualising religious undertones, then Monster Energy Drink is just a remarkably coincidental, abstract product. … Hear what this mother has to say about it:
From a corporate agenda/marketing perspective, she’s probably right. Her intentions I mean — any good mother wouldn’t want her children spending their money on indulgent products with scant nutritional value. She has picked up on the product’s business model that allows it a sale and consumption, which is through striking imagery and crude grammar. I agree with this women there, but linking it to anything beyond the empirical is not going to convince people that what she is saying isn’t pure cray. Stuff tastes like shite anyway. Now, go drink yourself some high quality H2O.

Me & my brother — Only ones rocking glowsticks in the park (+ Renée).
The dancing astronaut was pretty rad, but my favourites of the night were definitely “Biolumination” (bioluminescent bacteria Vibrio fisheri) by Dr. SiouxsieWiles & Rebecca Klee, and the low-fi, interactive zoetrope-like projection device, “Kaleidoscope” by Laura Cibilich, both artists of whom I had the pleasure of meeting on the night.
