This is where I collect things that interest and inspire me. Still figuring this out.

Very interesting article with lots of examples of how stuff tends to converge to a single style or look: interior design, architecture, movie posters, cars, book covers and whatnot...

When tied to staying at home or sitting on a desk, enjoying a travel video can be a good motivation to get shit done and head outside.

Inspired by the art of Sara Macias.
Not just the art itself but also the doing, the making stuff. The daring
to buy clothes and books and whatnot with her illustrations and trying to sell that.

Some very nice street art

Skateboarding in a very unusual spot. Love the creativity in this. Making use of what's around, not being
restricted by the environment.

A blog post about how many videos were accidentally uploaded from iphones to youtube. This provides a charming glimpse into the reality of other people, raw and unedited.

My Neighbour Totoro

2024-11-06

I recently watched the movie My Neighbour Totoro
What a wonderful movie!

On of the memorable scenes is of course the one on the bus stop. Probably the most famous shot is the one where Totoro stands
next to Mei and Satsuki. But before that, the camera moves to a view from above, pointing down so we can see
the street lamp and the red umbrella from above, with the rain pouring. I found that quite interesting:

It somehow also reminded me of this shot from the Matrix, which is similarly cool:
