National flags of the world with clients comments

This flash movie shows what flags of the world would look like if they were commented on by clients.

On Frederic Samual’s blog I also saw the concept of a water candle which somehow triggers something deep in my brain, I don’t know what.

Evolution vs Creationism, the defense of Reason

24 video’s on Evolution vs Creationism which clearly show that some very scary things are going on. Why is science always in defense against the guerilla’s? I think it is time for a change, although I do not know how. These video’s are REALLY worth a look.

Minuscule – the brave insects animation series


Minuscule is a fantastic animated series (for children) (but also for young adults :) ) about the insect life in a cartoon like way. It is created by Hélène Giraud and Thomas Szabo and was produced by Futurikon for the French channel France 2 (18 oct 2006). According to plans I have read there will be 78 episodes.

The very funny little animation movie on the frontpage of the website is about a ladybug who likes to challenge other insects. When you click “back to main site” you get all the information and background on the Minuscule series but also lots of free goodies like the Minuscule wallpaper, icons, screensaver and the fankit.

As far as I can see on the Internet, this is already a real hype or it is going to be soon.

update: I have found some more episodes on YouTube:

City Caterpillar
The dragonflies
The grasshopper / catapult
A snail’s dream
Cigale de Brazil
Wasp Belle
Shell Less
The Ladybug (also on the website)

The Twilight Zone

Via Jelle vond ik de herkomst van de mysterieuze tune van de RVS commercial:

En via het filmpje, de bijbehorende Twilight Zone aflevering, en via die informatie de wikipedia listing en gedetailleerde beschrijving van elke van de originele afleveringen uit 62-64.

Het zijn totaal 156 afleveringen, maar het is de moeite waard om eens doorheen te bladeren en de scripts door te lezen. Echt fan-tas-tisch. Zoals deze:

A middle-aged man, Martin Sloane, is driving cross-country when he stops his car. He walks toward his hometown, which appears exactly as it was when he was a boy. He sees himself as a boy, and following him home, meets his parents. Trying to convince his parents that he is their son from the future, he succeeds only in proving his insanity. Martin tries to warn his younger self to enjoy his childhood before it is too late, but his advances scare young Martin, who falls off the merry-go-round and injures his leg. Finally, his father confronts him. Having seen the papers in Martin’s wallet and now believing him to be who he says he is, he tells him to return to his own time. Martin finds himself back in his own time, walking with a new limp.

Typisch Twilight Zone, vrijwel altijd een einde met een “twist”.
