Get Cynical

Alright Cynics, I’m headed off to the White Mountains for the rest of the week and I absolutely refuse to blog while I’m gone. No, you can’t make me change my mind. The good news is that the fine bloggers listed below should still be toiling away in their underground blogging caves while I’m gone so feel free to eat away at their bandwidth until I get back on Monday.

From MSNBC:

Each year the International Institute for Species Exploration at Arizona State University announces a list of the Top 10 New Species for the preceding calendar year. The 2007 list includes some really strange creatures.

In March 2007 at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London we hosted an evening of animation related events which I took as an opportunity to make some more examples of my Phonographantasmascope, an extension of the Zoetrope principle.

It is all live action and works by using the shutter speed of the camera rather than the rather irritating stroboscope methods other 3D Zoetropes use.

Infidels are intellectual discoverers. They sail the unknown seas and find new isles and continents in the infinite realms of thought.

An Infidel is one who has found a new fact, who has an idea of his own, and who in the mental sky has seen another star.

He is an intellectual capitalist, and for that reason excites the envy and hatred of the theological pauper.

Robert Green Ingersoll – “The Great Infidels” (1881)
