Links for 2004-10-21 [del.icio.us]

  • Calatrava's Classical Greek
    Behind the architecture of the Olympic Stadium.
  • 101 years in 101 words
    An interesting intellectual challenge
  • "I have a thing for girls who say aboot."
    Kevin Smith cameos on the unseen in the UK 'Degrassi: The Next Generation' "The episodes, which will air early next year, have Smith playing himself directing the next Jay and Silent Bob movie, "Jay And Silent Bob Canadian, Eh?"
  • HomeComputer.jpg 800x600
    The first computer was designed by Captain Nemo
  • Not Nick Nolte's Diary
    Oh well. "We always thought it was absurd enough and strange enough that it would be apparent to anyone who read it [that it was parody]," Newton said. The problem is that we all think that Nolte is strange enough to actually have that life.
  • BUSH KERRY BUSH KERRY BUSH KERRY BUSH KERRY
    Probably the most zen Metafilter post ever. Worth visiting for the comments of disbelief, the deletion reason and a rather odd picture of Jack Black at a Kerry rally with what look like the candidate's daughters.
  • Turner Prize Nominees
    True to form I haven't heard of any of them. Less interestingly women apparently didn't produce any interesting art this year. Which will be news to those who had work at the predominantly female Liverpool Biennial.
  • Joss Whedon posts to Whedonesque for the first time, and about the US Election.
    A hundred people get very excited. Including me. Shiny. Is it me or do more people seem to care about the outcome of this election than the last. I wonder what would have happened then if the same muck had been raked.
  • Film of the Day: 84 Charing Cross Road (1987)
    Film of a book which might not have existed in the email age
  • Qatar is going to substitute its camel race jockeys with robots
    I'm now imagining a remake of SeaBiscuit with C-3PO.
