The Subtle Art of Cinema Gifs

Chungaiz — Tue, 15 Mar 2011 16:12:27 +0000

“A boy’s best friend is his mother.”

Psycho (1960)

If We Dont, Remember Me is a beautiful, poignant and not un-creepy collection of film clip GIFs and quotes. I’ve put the freakiest ones after the jump, but there’s a sexy one in there for you too.

“You still don’t understand what you’re dealing with, do you? … Perfect organism. Its structural perfection is matched only by its hostility.”

Alien (1979)

“Faith is a torment. It is like loving someone who is out there in the darkness but never appears, no matter how loudly you call.”

The Seventh Seal (1957)

“I’m so tired! … Not surprised. It’s tiring to kill a man.”

Swimming Pool (2003)

“Then I realized what it was. The music coming up from the floor was our old friend Ludwig van and the dreaded 9th Symphony.”

A Clockwork Orange (1971)

“Now I see this clearly. My whole life is pointed in one direction. There never has been a choice for me.”

Taxi Driver (1976)

“You’re stoned out of your mind, man.”

Easy Rider (1969)

The Creative Internet

Chungaiz — Tue, 12 Oct 2010 14:12:50 +0000

Useful reference of “interesting” and “creative” things currently being memed around the internet. The usual augmented reality, word-clouds, projections and interactive videos are paired with new examples, grouped into areas of Audio, Movies, Visual, Art, Physical, Light, Tech, Politics, Sport, Books, History, and of course straight up, old fashioned, Advertising.

Testing International Relations Theory

Kai — Wed, 21 Jul 2010 09:44:35 +0000

Following a number of enlightening blog posts on what international relations (IR) theory has to say on the matter of zombies and zombie attacks (e.g. 1, 2, 3) Daniel Drezner (Professor of International Politics, Tufts University) has now got a feature in Foreign Policy titled “Night of the living Wonks” which is worth reading for anyone with a peripheral interest in politics….

He’s also got a book forthcoming: Theories of International Politics and Zombies (Princeton University Press, 2010)

New Links

Chungaiz — Tue, 08 Jun 2010 15:31:17 +0000

Fantastic Man – One update a day, bar Sunday. And why not. Their links are original, considered and engaging. More than you can say for many regurgitating blogs out there (ours included – for the most part!)

Fuct – The legendary clothing brand’s blog. Free love, psychedelic drugs, and some bad ass rock and roll.

Thenonplace – clothes that some dude bought that you’ll never find yourself, and may kick yourself for having passed them by 3 years back.

A Conversation On Cool – shoddy name, but hey, that’s cool. A tumblr of dudes and dudettes from days gone by.

On and Beyond – Vincent tried to hook me up with Tshirts from JJJJound. Didnt work out, frustratingly. Great blog though. Similar to Thenonplace.

Ohwrd – highly personal, a bit teenage, but interesting mix of things to pass a few minutes or more. Clothes, girls, art, that sort of thing.

a post for the cyclists out there who know the deal – pain, suffering, mud, blood, sweat & tears – bloggings that celebrate the hardmen of the peleton. big ring riding.

THE BADGER: TAKING PEOPLE TO THE PAIN CAVE SINCE 1977.
THIS MAN SPENT HIS ENTIRE FUCKING CAREER IN THE BIG RING, EVEN WHEN HE WASN’T ON THE BIKE.

yes, that’s ^ Bernhard ‘The Badger’ Hinault decking a spectator…
