Don’t worry about people stealing an idea. If it’s original, you will have to ram it down their throats.

The casting, character design, plot, etc. all look top-notch. (Tip o’ the hat to Yewknee for the trailer link.)

If it were that easy to make money on the web, everyone would do it.

Filling My Brain and My Day With Inspiration, Not Time-Wasters http://joshuablankenship.com/_dev/blog/filling-my-brain-and-my-day-with-inspiration-not-time-wasters/ http://joshuablankenship.com/_dev/blog/filling-my-brain-and-my-day-with-inspiration-not-time-wasters/#comments Mon, 10 Sep 2007 03:55:39 +0000 Joshua Blankenship http://joshuablankenship.com/_dev/blog/?p=19 In an attempt to be more productive and less distracted, I’ve removed site aggregator popurls from my daily bookmark visiting. In theory, it’s great. In practice, it’s a ridiculous time suck and doesn’t accomplish anything.Aggregators like popurls just put a bunch of user-generated “news” sites together so I can waste time browsing top 10 lists and silly surface articles that do me no good either as artistic inspiration or time-management. Digg (and its kin) allow the community to decide what’s important, but those people aren’t me and those sites are becoming increasingly irrelevant to me, so why bother visiting?There are too many things I need and want to be doing. I’d rather fill my browsing time with things that benefit me as an artist and inspire me. (That being said, I’ve welcomed illustrator Kevin Cornell’s Bearskinrug and fashion-watcher Notcouture to the dailies.)

Paul Jacques Grillo on Simplicity http://joshuablankenship.com/_dev/blog/paul-jacques-grillo-on-simplicity/ http://joshuablankenship.com/_dev/blog/paul-jacques-grillo-on-simplicity/#comments Mon, 10 Sep 2007 01:40:00 +0000 Joshua Blankenship http://joshuablankenship.com/_dev/blog/?p=18

Simplicity does not mean want or poverty. It does not mean the absence of any decor, or absolute nudity. It only means that the decor should belong intimately to the design proper, and that anything foreign to it should be taken away.- Paul Jacques Grillo, architect

As I’ve said in the past, I love Canon products, but the fact that the lenses are so dang expensive makes Nikon much more attractive to me.
