Kseniya Simonova’s Amazing Sand Drawing
The performance itself is amazing, but the story, the way one shape morphs into another like a great piece of animation, almost seems impossible, but there it is, she is creating the work in front of you. What is more amazing is that Kseniya had been at this for only a year when she was given the chance to deliver this performance.
New Math
If mathematics was taught like this when I was in high school, I might have taken a very different course in my life. This is stunningly beautiful.
Stanley Jordan - The Michael Jordan of Guitar
I remember hearing about this guy who played guitar the way a pianist plays a keyboard back in the early 80’s and quickly sought him out.

What, me worry?
I don’t think Google is evil. I tell myself that every morning when I wake up to that cute, colorful screen that wants to help me find whatever it is that I’m interested in. Google is my humble servent, isn’t it?

Conversation between Client and Web Designer
I used to design websites, which is probably why this strikes a chord with me. Though, in truth, i didn’t quite go like this. A company once told me that they could have an employee’s nephew design their site for $75. As you can imagine, it was a brief conversation from that point on.
Now This is Truly Insane
You could not get me to try this in a million years. Not if I was drunk, stoned or whatever. Would you try it?
Now That’s a Strong Mouse
Nolan’s Cheese made a delightful commercial that is only predictable for the first part of the story.
