Roy Lichtenstein



Roy Lichtenstein was a prominent American pop artist that rose to fame in the 1960s. Hes known for his comic book style paintings and sculptures. Through the 70s and 80s he worked on surreal are but is still know mostly for his work in pop art.

Waking Life

Waking Life is an interesting film that I feel would work neither as singularly an animated film or just a live action motion picture. The style of the film fits brilliantly with its content: complex philosophies are made understandable through an excellent presentation, simple imagery and stories that any one can relate to. Another movie employing almost the same animation style that I recently saw was A Scanner Darkly, and the plot seemed like it had very little necessity for the animation style that it shared with Waking Life, and it was more of a distraction than what it did for Waking Life.

Jille's Websites

1000 journals was the most appealing to me, I've checked out Moleskine's site on sketchbooks before and I really like the idea of these hundreds and hundreds of unappreciated works floating around the internet populating sites like this and flickr.

Ordinary comics is nice in the realm of one-a-day comics. Personally my favorite daily comic strip is achewood.com. I feel like that website has some of the funniest things in the world happening in any type of media, and it has probably the crappiest drawings I've ever seen.

And OSXdaily is cool because it inadvertantly showed me how to rip dvds from tristan onto my cell phone.
