The Onion: Iron Man trailer to be a full-length movie

April 15, 2008 1:34pm

Is the trailer, in fact, insanely popular? Where can you get info about the popularity of trailers?

Shoot, what movie is that picture from? Is that the Metropolis remake?

The Weather Station's "East" -- haunting, tentative, lovely contemporary folk song

March 18, 2008 11:54am

You might also be interested to know that the Weather Station currently has a monthly residency at the Tranzac near Bloor and Brunswick. I saw them play at Wavelength recently (great weekly music series at Sneaky Dee's) and it was absolutely wonderful.

Artbot is right.

But I would love to have a regular pair of headphones that looked like this. Wonder if regular safety muffs are modable...

Interesting anti-graffiti sign

I find this a bit conflicting, as my favourite graffiti in Toronto is the I Love you's tagged all over the annex.

Joel, this isn't Sidecar in Toronto by any chance, is it?

DVD of galactic simulations now online for free

I saw a presentation of this at the Music Gallery in Toronto some time last year. The music is really amazing.

Badass rayguns: postapocalyptic, steampunk, deadly

January 28, 2008 4:46pm

I mean if it's something especially unique or interesting then alright, but just because something is steampunk doesn't mean it's especially unique or interesting. And I don't find these particularly well done. Maybe I'm being a snob.

Am I the only one feeling steampunk-ed out?

Wasn't the Atlanta games the one nortorious for athletes missing their events because of transit issues?

Toronto as a Half-Life mod

I really wish someone would make a driving game set in Toronto. The design of this city is practically begging for it.

Matt, I convert photos to vector in order to make stencils out of them.

Zine library at Ontario College of Art and Design

November 13, 2007 1:56pm

Crap, I messed up that Broken Pencil tag. Kinda wish you could edit comments.

There's also a lot of zinesters in Halifax. The Anchor Archive is probably the best zine library I've ever seen (they also run a silk screening shop and an artist residency).

There's still a pretty hefty zine community in Toronto. The Toronto Zine Library operates out of the TRANZAC and zine review mag Broken Pencil just held its annual Canzine festival and it was busting at the seams.

It does seem like zines are a little more like portfolio padding than they use to be, but I might just be jaded. Lately they do seem to be more of a means to an end than a means unto themselves.
