Very nice Flash platform game.

Ah! Monkey!

…but I think I may have found the place that can supply it.

If, like me, snow makes you think of Calvin’s snowmen you’re going to love this.

Qix.

Nice.

Edit: Wow, that was quick - gone already. It was lots and lots of these and they were very funny.

Further Edit: Back again.

This weekend I’m taking a well earned break from computers… We’re doing up the house at the moment and having nearly completed the hard work we’re on to finding the right items to finish each room off. So. This post provides a list of places I start looking for my inspiration. Don’t drool too much…

Marcel Duchamp’s Fountain has been named the most influential piece of modern art in a recent poll. Why is this interesting? Because in 1917 the ‘readymade‘ had never been heard of. This simple little pissoir is the Grandaddy of contemporary art and if it weren’t for Duchamp Damien Hirst and Tracey Emin (among many others) would be flipping burgers not driving Bentleys. It’s nice to see recognition of Duchamp’s place, although it’s ironic that only this week Charles Saatchi is rumoured to be starting to sell his BritArt in favour of paintings - just as BritArt’s founding father finally tops the polls ahead of his painting contemporaries.

This is nice - subtle subversions of the Northern Line.
