UPDATE: Curious about how I took those pictures? I’ve got the answer right here.
Not everyone is happy about the DC revamp…
On Tuesday DC Comics announced that it would be renumbering more than 50 of its superhero titles, starting with Justice League #1 on August 31st. This morning DC put up a new blog post that gives a few more details about the titles that will be restarted, but it isn’t an all-inclusive list. The big [...]
The only good Alice is a dead Alice
Everyone seems to have fond memories of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll, so I decided to give the book a try.

I figured that homing pigeons made the cutest image, so here we are. Actually, I was just curious about how the whole homing pigeon thing [...]
Cat worship
Now that I’ve posted images of cats onto my site, I need only to wait for my inevitable fame. People. Love. Cats. I mean, sure, there are certain individuals out there that abhor cats, but in general, the statement is absolutely true. Just look at the abundance of kitten videos on YouTube or the pervasiveness [...]
Art and boredom
James Elkins wrote a terrific article in The Huffington Post that asks whether artists are ever bored with their own work. Mr. Elkins explores the topic through a comparison of Renaissance and modern artists and their processes for creating art. The article then takes a surprising twist: it turns out that boredom is a fairly [...]
