Last weekend we went to a horror convention in Adelphi, Maryland. The convention featured different movie celebrities, writers, a great horror fair and screenings of indie and non-indie horror movies. I enjoyed the place a lot, though we spent there only a couple of hours and didn’t get to see much, except for a couple [...]Fri, 11 Jul 2008 22:54:03 +0000
Not so long ago i saw the movie - Travellers and Magicians, made by Khyentse Norbu (a.k.a. Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche), who is a buddhist monk and is officially recognized as the reincarnation of a 19th century Tibetan saint. This was his first movie ever made in Bhutan. It’s a beautiful movie, i liked it [...]Tue, 08 Jul 2008 20:31:40 +0000
Since i’ve been rearranging our load of metal mags and fanzines from the past, i came across many deserving-to-be-remembered metal/black metal logos. Though i am not the first one to make a post on the most incomprehensible logos, i browsed through some sites and they don’t have the ones i’ve found . So, [...]Mon, 09 Jun 2008 18:47:55 +0000

Every time i say “i’m back” on my blog, something happens - so, i am not going to say it again, because it’s become a curse I’ve been sick for quite a while, but that’s not so interesting, so i will just get on to the nice things that happened in the last month.

Once again i have forsaken my blog for a long time. I was tired, sick, busy, lazy, working and what not, and couldn’t spare some time to write something meaningful or not.

Here, in Arad, one cannot walk the streets without constantly being surrounded by cats. We’re staying in the town center, and that’s also one of the hottest spots for them. Throughout our stay in Israel we’ve met numerous cats, by now we probably know and recognize each one. We often buy them yummy kittycat food [...]Thu, 14 Feb 2008 15:22:18 +0000
“The artist is a receptacle for the emotions that come from all over the place: from the sky, from the earth, from a scrap of paper, from a passing shape, from a spider’s web.” - said Picasso. So, here are emotions embodied into the paper - the coolest papercraft toys i’ve encountered online:

Soviet animation was in a way unique. There were lots of extremely weird cartoons which, i think, left a heavy impact on the psyche of the growing generation. Take “Hedgehog in the Fog“, for example - there’s no single way of interpreting of this creation. Apparently, it won the “â„–1 Animated film of all the [...]Fri, 25 Jan 2008 13:35:00 +0000
