I can’t believe I’ve never hear the story of Kaspar Hauser before. (I highly recommend you read this story first, before you look him up on the internets.) do yourself a favor go read this book, it will only take a little while and it’s worth it. thanks diane obomsawin!

I miss the animaniacs. I think I’ll go add them to my netflix list right now.
This is some really great design for a web portfolio. visit bettinakomenda.com for the full effect. (just the homepage though, not fond of the popup.)
I love the logo on google’s homepage today, celebrating Samuel Morse’s Birthday.

At first glance Crank is the opposite of the kinds of things I would ordinarily go see. Even film and movie enthusiasts weren’t thrilled with this one. Still there is something to it. I wasn’t exactly on the edge of my seat despite it being billed as non-stop action, but oddly it was pretty close to seeing something akin to Video Art on the big screen.
Jason Statham is well cast in this fast-paced, crazy-premised, ride. From the pacing, to the visuals, to the constantly making fun of itself, to the this is a video game feel, somehow it all came together to make an arty package. I don’t think it was intended that way, but from a purely visual stance, I liked it.
Still, in the same way it might be hard to recommend some video art, a piece might have some great aspects artistically, but still be very hard to watch, so too Crank had it’s tedious moments despite being an interesting visual feast.
