Wall Clock Design Concept of the Day: “Trace of Time” by Il-Gu Cha.

Appointments written on the glass and steel clock face get wiped away by the timepiece’s eraser-hand as it passes over them, symbolizing the transience of urgency or whatever.

i love this.  though, mine would just be a combination of “snack”, “internet,” and frantic sad faces.

The Calamari Wrestler is about a talking squid who seeks to become Japan’s wrestling champion. He might also be the reincarnation of a deceased, highly revered wrestler. The squid costume looks marginally better than something found in a Roger Corman creature feature from the Fifties from the top, but no attempt has been made to hide that there is a boot wearing man underneath. Convinced that the squid is, in fact, the reincarnation of her late lover, a young woman, daughter of the wrestling commissioner, pursues the cephalopod. Interspecies love takes a back seat to sporting spectacles between men and invertebrates. Kawasaki’s world is one that a more conventional thinking film viewer would pass on, but I find myself easily swept up by Kawasaki’s childlike, rather than childish, universe of talking animals that coexist with humans.

i declare 2009 to be the year of the squid (movie).

not true for myself, but i understand the sentiment.

my mom is in mexico for a month for research and i’ve never wanted to hug her more intensely.  and my dad.  and grandma.  eek!
