  • Chris Marker - A grin without a cat
    I really want to see this Marker film - on the wars that followed the second World War. Plus Paris '68.
  • BBC NEWS | Technology | 'You' named Time's person of 2006
    A new distributed content creation medium is found. Everyone.
  • Empty-Stomach Intelligence - New York Times
    Stay foolish stay hungry. As Jobs is wont to say.
  • Eyebeam reBlog: Wiimotion
    Photographic portraits of Wii users
  • EMI/Last.fm/Sun Systems
    Mashup thing with lines and nodes and general bounciness. In my experience these flash visualizations do not get used regularly.
  • Slashdot | Selling Your Attention to Spammers
    Old Slashdot thread that contains an interesting discussion about how monetizing attention could be a plan for spam. I agree with most of the first comment.
  • Seth Goldstein - API: In the middle of the middle, about Poverty & Wealth in the Gesture Economy
    Seth's posting again. I always find something of interest in his sometimes opaque posts.
  • Writeroom - Distraction free writing
    My OS X application find of the month - i use this to concentrate on text i want to read, and to focus when writing a long piece of text. Brutally simple. Brutally elegant. Brutally effective.
  • Kit Clayton - Lateral Forces
    I'm obsessed by this old record from Kit Clayton (max/msp contributor, ex-orthlong musork label head). The record is based on seismic data, with field recordings from rocks and water mixed in. Despite having had it for years, i'm still fascinated every time.
  • Linux Vs Windows Security
    Using information visualization to bring a fresh perspective to this age-old argument.
