Sad Cartoons

The Land Before Time and Bambi -- A couple of movies that left me traumatized as a kid. I thought my parents were going to get killed. I guess they prepared me for the worse, or made me overly emotional. Now I'm crying to three-dimensional digital films like Pixar's Up.

Betty White Brownies

Betty White is a Queen of Pop Culture. Everything she touches has appeal. So, I'm suggesting Betty Crocker modify their branding a bit. Keep the Betty, drop the Crocker, and replace it with White. Done! Add a little fun, and call it good.

5th Avenue Frogger

Frogger parodies could easily be justified as designs we've seen a lot, but this is a clever, imaginative take on the franchise. The arcade box uses real-time web-cam traffic feeds (and some clever coding) of New York's 5th Avenue to simulate the car obstacles in the Frogger universe.

Hair Physics

NPR's Science Friday has really been on my side today--talking about space missions, sea exploration, LEGOs, special effects, and digital animations. Great listening.

In the 2010 Disney film "Tangled," Rapunzel's hair becomes a character of its own. Here is a short video segment: Untangling The Hairy Physics Of Rapunzel.

Play with LEGOS

LEGOs (from the Danish phrase leg godt, which means "play-well") have so many different applications.
