Not sure about the bikini clad anime girls, but this is a great marriage of funk driven, synth-tastic melodies and hyper-vibrant colours and imaginings courtesy of Japanese artist, Takashi Murakami. In case his name rings any bells, Murakami was producer for “Akihabara Majokko Princess” — the infamous Kirstin Dunst music video made in 2010:

The Weirdest Couch Gag in the History of The Simpsons by Animator Don Hertzfeldt [animation]

•October 2, 2014 • Leave a Comment

This couch gag is going to mess with so many people’s heads, and for that, I love it. It would be cool if The Simpsons experimented with a bit more variety every once in a while instead of returning to the expected guest appearances. But these couch gags have always been great:

More human indignities swept under the veil of the media’s jurisdiction. It isn’t hard to imagine this issue being the Obama administration’s downfall. As John Oliver laments; it is the simple things in life, that many have come to fear — Last Week Tonight talks about the United States’ use of armed drones:

I am loving this show.

Trippy Wall Clock

•September 29, 2014 • Leave a Comment

This wall clock is on display at the Ham Yard Hotel in London, and is made up of 135 individual clocks all synchronized to display time as well as various geometric shapes:

Mesmeric, isn’t it? I fear its aesthetic pleasure is a distraction to its function however. If someone was in a hurry say, I don’t think this is the best clock in the world to look at.

‘Female Freedom Has an Expiration Date’: Being 35 and Single | Op-Docs | The New York Times

•September 28, 2014 • Leave a Comment

An Argentine woman, documenting her relationships, begins an intimate investigation searching for love and answers: must she settle down or continue to be a free spirit in order to be happy?

To me, her life seemed pretty rad to begin with. I’m slightly divided by this actually; I don’t see what she has to complain about considering she has had plenty of opportunities where many women have little to none. In any case, We all have our moments of self-reflection I guess, and although I am not a 30-year-old women (nor have I the experience of having so many lovers, sheesh), I agree with her conclusion — Happiness is a state of mind, not a set of circumstances.
