Found this extraordinary shop in Brighton last week. It's well worth a visit...
“The relationship between photographers and police could worsen next month when new laws are introduced that allow for the arrest - and imprisonment - of anyone who takes pictures of officers ‘likely to be useful to a person committing or preparing an act of terrorism’.”
maybe it's about time the likes of Apple took responsibility for the manufacture of their products, as they're supposed to be so cutting edge.
As we're lifelong contributors to 'anthrophony' we're pretty culpable....but still, fascinating studies.
Look to the stars!
The Chestnut Tree Café. ...it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself. He loved Big Brother.
In Rainbows video competition
Plastic. Is. Everywhere.
Bhopal was the worst industrial disaster in history. A leak of methyl isocynate killed 20,000, injured millions more and Union Carbide... um, er...
THE REVOLUTION WILL (NOT) BE TELEVISED
the artists have no recollection of most of this.
There Will Be Blood

Vote vote vote! Mmm... participatory democracy...
As they say, we don't live in the Information Age, or even the Oil Age. We all have to eat. We live in the Agriculture Age.
Download books on to your Blackberry instead of using it to send email, 'browse' the 'web' or any of the other tedious business-related 'apps'. It'll still look like you're really really busy.
This is great if you should be doing something boring for someone else.
Man, I couldn't even read this, it looked so scary. But maybe you can? Maybe it has a happy ending?
Fascinating, horrifying, beautiful photography.
Put that important work aside. Slack off. Play this, it's great.
Well-written, urgent and frequently very funny. Featuring the now-legendary 'Crap Arrest of the Week'.
Bored? Read a magazine. No celebrity cellulite in this one, I'm afraid.
If only. People are beginning to question the idea of filling our streets with fast-moving metal objects that smell bad and make those driving them behave worse.
Fill 'er up. While you're at it, check the dipstick thing.
Derrick May on Strings of Life
Messiaen's bird song imitations along with field recordings.
Simply incredible. Housing estates are the new up.
I found this when I was looking for pictures of housing estates. The Typologies are fantastic.
Dedication's whatchooneed.
Send your old computer somewhere more useful/less harmful than the local dump. Turns out Apple computers have a terrible environmental impact. Doh.
i want the T shirt
An excellent independent liberal reporter on the Middle East.
Why don't you switch off your television set and do something less boring instead?
Anyone annoyed by the occasional use of badly-strung together Esperanto might like this. On the other hand, sub est pli nova supreni, as any fule kno.
Art assignments, made by 'the general public'.
A photography site that is about having fun
A new monochrome project from the inventor of thedailynice.com.
I love this. stnly
mr michael stipe has a camera and knows how to use it.
My eyes are too tired to read all of this but it looks like the sort of powerpoint presentation you'd come away from feeling pretty ropey.
It's awards season! I do love a red carpet, a revealing dress, tears, gratitude. Why not grab a ringside seat?
