Cloud of Starlings

I’m not sure calling her a minion is the best idea, but…

My quest to take over the internet has his a small stumbling block. Apparently there are a finite number of hours in the day and you can’t spend all of them tinkering with the internet. It’s so unfair!

However I have come up with a cunning plan. I shall co-opt others into my quest. If I can’t conquer the net single handedly I shall recruit a mighty army of minions to do so for me.

So, introducing my first minion:

My wife Kerry has just started a blog: Cloud of Starlings. And it’s good. Bloody good. A little TOO good to be honest.

It’s a photo blog. She’s just started Project 365 again (where you have to take a photo every single day of the year), but she’s doing it with a twist – she’s only taking photos with her iphone.

So it begins... - 1/1/10 (1/365)
1/365 Self Portrait

I’ve posted previously about her decision to accept the flaws of the notoriously crappy iPhone camera and use it to her artistic advantage. So here’s the evidence of her immense photographic talent:

1/9/10 (9/365)
9/365

And the crowd goes wild... 1/12/10 (12/365)
12/365 And the crowd goes wild

Lunchtime fog - 1/19/10 (19/365)
19/365 Lunchtime fog

Your face pressed up against the glass - 01/20/10 (20/365)
20/365 Your face pressed up against the glass

I am very proud of my wife.

Of course I haven’t been resting on my laurels myself. Although most of my work has been going on behind the scenes of Hadrian’s Walk, and so isn’t really available for public viewing as yet (if you are one of the walkers however, make sure you take a look at the various bits and bobs waiting for you on Google Wave).

Of course I’ve always got time for Lee, my antipodean pop culture guru.

Over on the Midnight Movie Club podcast this week Lee and I were joined by Jeff from the blog Caddickisms to discuss the 1982 movie Tron.

It’s staggering when you stop and think about it how the internet has enabled three geeks from three separate continents to come together to talk crap for their own amusement. Al Gore must be incredibly proud.
