Poster for Fathoms (link roundup)



Poster for the shirt film "Fathoms." This website features concept art for the project.

And a few more links:

1. Obama's top science adviser advocated the "de-development" of the industrialized world.

2. Apparently, it's common for magazine/newspaper editors to "know what they want the story to look like, right down to the quotes, before they even assign it to a writer."

3. Photo gallery from a Katamari Damacy-themed wedding.

*Previously: Victorian submarines.

Katamari Forever desktop wallpaper (link roundup)



Katamari Forever desktop wallpaper plucked from the game's Twitter page. Via.

And a few more links:

1. New book cover for Simon Kernick's "Deadline" was clearly designed to fool people into thinking it was written by Dan Brown.

2. Nighthawks and a very angry anteater.

3. Good article by Philip Kennicott:
The nostalgia for Cronkite is nostalgia not for a lost golden age, but for a brief time when three large media corporations held a monopoly on the airwaves, when trust could be sorted out easily and quickly with the shorthand of race, class and education.
Via.

4. Fan site for (fictional) vintage sci-fi show "Sargasso Planet" is apparently an ARG for new show "Day One." Via.

*Previously: Katamari Damacy/Shadow of the Colossus mashup.

Katamari Damacy plus Shadow of the Colossus equals... (link roundup)



Katamari Damacy/Shadow of the Colossus mashup. Via this collection of weird Katamari art.

And a few more links:

1. News to me: "H.G. Wells' War of the Worlds was an allegory about the injustice of European imperial rule of Africa, China and India."

2. Good article about soldiers ambushed in Afghanistan:
The Americans, seasoned by years of war here and in Iraq, would seek to create an intricately violent response, designed to undo the odds, save the pinned soldiers and kill the insurgents who, for a moment, had shown themselves.
3. Pranksters installed swings on San Francisco's BART.

4. Quality commentary on the Supreme Court upholding the FCC's indecency fines:
I propose this deal: the baby boomers can continue their astonishing string of selling out every single principle they ever claimed to have (R.I.P George Carlin) and keep their precious network television. Meanwhile, Gen X and the Millennials can have the internet. Oh, we're already doing that? Cool.
