buried deep within the U.S. military’s own records are some very bizarre, and very well-documented sightings that have to give even a skeptic second thoughts

There seems to be more and more of these early color photos showing up.  The first I remember was color photos from WWI.  The ones here however have more of an artistic value to them.  Some very beautiful photos.  Enjoy.

Big Buck Bunny

I love these Open Source projects.  I hope to see one win an Oscar someday.

The Making of “Big Buck Bunny”: An Open-Source Evolution

In May 2008, the Blender Foundation released their second open-movie project: “Big Buck Bunny,” a funny and furry 3D short about a giant rabbit who gets even with bullying rodents. This session brings together the key people who created the movie and presents all the aspects of an open-source and open-content-based animation studio, and how this affects the creative process. The panelists showcase project files from the studio, and even recreate parts of the film on demand! This 90 minute session starts with a screening the 10-minute film and ends with a 15-minute Q&A with the audience.
