Tag estimates it is roughly 40% new material, large and small changes, and all the frame enlargements are new. The latter detail is saying quite a lot considering Gallagher is an artist with still frames and their placement.
The UK graves index, a photographic tour of some of England's graveyards, cemeteries and other places of burial. Fabulous; in particular the photos of ancient and derelict graveyards.
Schnellschußgrafiker. Lichtpausfähig. Nicht toxisch. The person who did the typesetting must have been on either magic mushrooms or he/she simply inhaled way too much of those well-known magic marker fumes. The art director simply deserves to be shot. Oh, and the copywriter... From my flickr set.
Waste a few hours and watch some good movies, like Atom Age Vampire, Vengeance Valley or the extraordinary The Incredible Petrified World. At b movies.
Here you'll find hundreds of movies that have been lost in the wasteland of forgotten cinema. No sign-up or log-in needed, just hours and hours of B.
The iron town. Located near Dessau in Germany, it's part theme park, part museum, and has lots of huge industrial machinery. And I mean huge. Via Pruned / via things.
The day-to-day grumblings of the people who had to use them and the people who had to design them are amusing enough on their own, but the biggest joke is that, for whatever reason, the Men from the Ministry just couldn't come to terms with the idea that it could all be as simple as red, amber and green traffic lights.
The manor houses of England; illustrated by Sydney R. Jones (1910) Modern homes, selected examples of dwelling houses, described and illustrated by T. Raffles Davison (1909)The illustrations are amazing.
Original covers. Amended covers. New covers. Different layouts. Interior illustrations. Posters. Double page spreads. Comics. Paperbacks. Perry Rhodan — Besonderheiten für Sammler, Fans, Liebhaber. I actually quite enjoy this website.
Die Verleihunternehmen "Neue Filmkunst Walter Kirchner" (seit 1953) und "Atlas Film" (seit 1960) setzen sich zum Ziel, die
junge Bundesrepublik mit anspruchsvollen Filmen zu versorgen.
Werke von Ulrich Schamoni oder François Truffaut werden erstaufgeführt,
Klassiker wie Goldrausch, Das Kabinett des Dr. Caligari
oder Zwölf Uhr mittags erneut in die Kinos gebracht.
Revolutionär sind die Werbekampagnen der ambitionierten
Verleiher: Zu jedem Film entsteht ein grafisches Gesamtkonzept,
das Filmplakat, Begleitheft, Vorspann und Trailer einschließt.
Die Grafiker-Elite dieser Zeit übernimmt die Gestaltung, darunter
Karl Oskar Blase, Heinz Edelmann, Fritz und Dorothea Fischer-
Nosbisch, Hans Hillmann, Jan Lenica, Isolde Monson-Baumgart
und Gunter Rambow. Ihnen wird vollkommene künstlerische Freiheit
gewährt, ein Novum in der deutschen Filmwerbung. Die moderne
Grafik wird bald zum Markenzeichen der Verleihfirmen und findet
internationale Anerkennung.
Order this. Because it's horrible. I still might have a few of those in the loft somewhere, and I'll check tomorrow and burn them. Blogging continues, sort of. You can order everything else from there though.

All of a sudden, Wire is back; its next release is called Read & Burn 03 and it will be available to the public from 12th November onwards via posteverything.com or from your favourite record shop 'round the corner.
Read & Burn 03: a new record by Wire. Those 4 songs are amazing. Totally different from the Send material, the songs develop more towards some kind of "Art-Pop-Rock", and this is Wire at its best. It's Pop, and it's not. Expect drones. Expect fuzzy guitars. Don't expect Send. Hey, it's Wire.
I had the opportunity to talk to Colin Newman, the frontman of Wire, about the new release, about Wire and about the future of Wire. And for the first time ever you can listen right here to excerpts of the new material before the actual release on November 12; enjoy the music.
You can download the podcast here [25mins, 19MB]. Alternatively, if the link still works (iTunes can be incredibly funny at times), here's the direct link to iTunes.

From Wire's press release: Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water, Read & Burn 03 — the latest in Wire's series of 'research and development' vehicles — will be delivered to an unsuspecting world's door on November 12, 2007.With a running time of over 25 minutes, Read & Burn 03 is a substantial chunk of audio and offers significant signposting in the third reactivation of Wire as a recording entity.
Having spent the four-and-a-half years since the May 2003 release of Send, their last full length studio album, consolidating and reappraising their back catalogue (by means of CD and DVD releases and re-releases of their '70s material) and for the most part remaining out of the public eye, Wire have nonetheless not been creatively idle. Although drawing on a resource pool of material developed over the entire post-Send period, Read & Burn 03 benefits substantially from a concentrated creative effort and newly defined aesthetic sense developed since mid-2006. Wire, ever multi-layered, ever redefined, is evolving yet again. No greater indication of the seismic shift in Wire's intentions can be given than the very fact that the first track on the band's first utterance for almost five years is nearly 10 minutes long!

The goal for this web page is to create a repository of restored images showing the production aspects of the original Star Trek series. This would include out takes, deleted scenes, close-ups of props, effects scenes and publicity photos.
In the FTSE 100 38% of CEO's have an accounting background, 23% sales 18% general management (whatever that means) 0% have design backgrounds. I want people with design backgrounds to be CEO's and CFO's and CMO's and town planners and air traffic controllers and European Commissioners.
Because Konstantin is off to Scotland for the next 2, 3, or maybe 47 weeks, I'm now in charge of his weblog and have just published my first entry over there. Enjoy.

Grad eben auf BRα eine Tagesschau vom 5.10.1977 geschaut. Mit darunter ein Bericht des damaligen Star-Journalisten Ernst-Dieter Lueg. Dabei fiel mir ein, daß Herbert Wehner den immer respektlos als "Herr Lüg" angeredet hat. Damals.
Sometimes Web 2.0 can be really great. This little video was done very quickly with the help of Animoto. The Rock'n Roll version of the title track is by Spy vs Spy.
Charles Weever Cushman, amateur photographer and Indiana University alumnus, bequeathed approximately 14,500 Kodachrome color slides to his alma mater. The photographs in this collection bridge a thirty-two year span from 1938 to 1969, during which time he extensively documented the United States as well as other countries.
