Felix of avoision writes about the Puppet Bike in downtown Chicago. Essentially, a guy pedals to an intersection, where he then sets up a puppet booth with many different characters and music.

Choreographed cats

These “Choreographed cats” were captured by Felix at the Puppet Bike a few days ago. Mobile puppet booths are awesome!

Katy — I think of your quote each day as I’m pedaling up Franklin through the snow. Soon, pedaling and swimming will become synonymous (both in the literal and figurative sense) in my head.

Dan — after fixing my URL detection regexp (so your link worked… sorry about that!), I checked out that link. Woah!

I always think it’s interesting to see that artistic styles were mastered before many thought they even existed. Some people think that close-cropped pictures of ephemeral moments in daily life arose only in the past few years, paralleling the advent of inexpensive photography.

In this case, that style of photography was used with great results… 80 years before the digital camera (and the reemergence of this style).

Also: The Story rocks.

responding to Widgets from China

I’m also alternately fascinated and horrified by the China story. I feel as if we’re already in the beginning stages of a new Cold War that has the potential to eclipse the USA-Soviet Union’s due to the increased level of scale/impact both countries could leverage. It’ll be interesting to watch this issue develop.

Hahaha. Loved the video and Brooker’s dry, wry, blunt delivery.
