Elephants Dream

Due to “public demand” I have decided to post Elephants Dream here too. It is not as good looking as Big Buck Bunny, however it is interesting in many ways. Partly because of the open ended and rather mind bending story. The visual do take you on a journey through the mind. The other reason [...]

Big Buck Bunny

Blender is an Open Source 3D animation program with a lot of promise. But perhaps the most intressting thing about it that there is also an Open Source based moviemaking community around it. They have previously released Elephants Dream which was OK, but nothing special. However, the look and feel of this movie, Big Buck [...]

The Twilit Theatre presents: Horror Express (1973)

In a continuing theme of testing different things with wordpress, I decided to take VodPod for a spin. This is because, while I do like the blogging system that is wordpress, I find it extremely annoying that you can’t post Flash nor JavaScript. To a certain extent this is alleviated by VodPod. It’s a service [...]

This is for you, Mum!

Ok, I know it’s not mother’s day (in Sweden) until this Sunday. But, I found this today and if I do not act now, I’ll forget. And to everyone else: no, the TwilightShadows is not turning into another Cuteoverload.com, this is just for my mum. She adores Scottish Folds!

Internet Radio

As a modern internet person, I’ve more or less stopped listening to the regular radio. This is not for any particular reason more than a serious lack of interesting content… But we do have internet radio! Now, with the advent of podcasts, the allure of internet radio might have diminished somewhat, but none the less, [...]

Why Amazon MP3 isn’t a real threat to iTunes, yet!

Yesterday I listened to the latest edition of MacBreak Weekly, number 79, and one of the things they talk a lot about was the iTunes Store vs. Amazon MP3 thing. Now as you may or may not be aware the record labels aren’t to happy with Apple’s position when negotiating with them, and have there [...]

New Media - Where to go next?

Recently I listened to the MacCast, the Mac Podcaster meet-up episode (part one). In it  Scott Bourne, Leo Laport, Dave Hamilton, Ken Ray, Cali Lewis, Victor Cajiau and Adam Christianson debated the current state of new media in general, and podcasting in particular.
The general consensus seemed to be that podcasting is stalling a bit, and [...]

Andy Ihnatko’s new site is  finaly up for public use, although in keeping with tradition of the Web 2.0 era, it is not yet out of Beta… Anyhow, as usual he is funny and interessting all wraped up  into one manly package, and his posts, be they on his blog, on YouTube or at the [...]
