Juggling, Mayhem, Chainsaws, and Hot Nurses

by Brian David Phillips • October 4, 2005

Strangeness Indeed . . . an intriguing video clip of a magic act featuring juggling of dangerous objects (bowling balls are a nice touch), a chainsaw trick, and a very pretty assistant in a hot nurse outfit. The performance seems to be a night sideshow deal . . . very reminiscent of my first year…

Amanda Fortini looks into the language of style in her critque or the ironies of the Kate Moss situation and one quote from the ad folks comes out clear and strong: "There has been a period of a few days where people have waited to see which way the wind is blowing on this." As…

which Serenity character are you?
that just ain’t right

by Brian David Phillips • October 2, 2005

You scored as The Operative. You are dedicated to your job and very good at what you do. You’ve done some very bad things, but they had to be done. You don’t expect to go to heaven, but that is a sacrifice you’ve made for a better future for all. River Tam 94% The Operative…

There’s a typhoon pounding the island this weekend. We couldn’t go to the big cosplay event at NTU today as we had guests over for lunch and wiled away the afternoon chatting with them (as one of them will be headin’ stateside for a year, we wanted to get a chance to visit). The typhoon…

HD or 3D?

by Brian David Phillips • October 1, 2005

Scott Hettrick asks the question of the next generation video push . . . Next-gen: HD or 3D? . . . my answer, hopefully both but probably more of the HD than the 3D. Two new DVDs have been released in anaglyphic 3D this month (a Barbie adventure and Sharkboy) but they still exhibit problems…
