An Apple Experience

So… I’ve joined the darkside. At 5:31 pm today, I booted a Power Mac G4 in my study.

Model World

Olivio Barbieri takes aerial photos that look like shots of a model world on a table, not the real world we live in. These images are just amazing. I would never have guessed they were aerial shots if I hadn’t read about them.

Lobbying

And make the punishment something nice and hefty, like a year in prison.
But what do I know?

 

Ashes and Snow

This is an incredible exhibit of video and images called Ashes and Snow by Gregory Colbert.
