Pretty amazing figure skating

Hiya, Fluffsters!

So, I was randomly looking up figure skating championship footage on YouTube, and encountered this lovely gem. (The first 5 minutes are the important ones. The fact that the commentators are Russian is actually a perk– they don’t speak during the performance!)

One of the things I love about this routine is the music chosen. I don’t exactly know why the composer decided to do this, but the “Dies Irae” plainchant theme (dies irae is “Day of judgement, day of wrath”) is the main recurring theme.

I really wonder about what story the composer was trying to tell.

Regardless, the figure skating was beautiful.

Happy Monday!

Hiya, Fluffsters!

In keeping with the current temporary theme of cool things, here’s a video tutorial of something called “ice dying.” This is something that looks not only cool, but also nifty.

Isn’t that a fun result? I’d really like to try it at some point!

Anyway, have a great Wednesday!

Hiya, Fluffsters!

So, remember how yesterday A couple days ago, (since Fluffy moved this post) I shared a couple videos about a GIANT ROBOT MELEE coming up?

Well, I found a video with a bit more info on the American version.

And it’s pretty fantastic. Check it out!

I mean, seriously. They even have it designed that the arms-master is at risk of being “slimed” (or something) if they’re not careful. Think of the comedy potential!

Have a great Friday! Saturday

New “Hunger Games” Propaganda — effective

Greetings, readers!

I am postponing the Webmaster’s current plans for today’s post, in light of a very interesting update from the franchise of “The Hunger Games”.

In case you were not aware– starting with one of the earlier movies, the studio producing the Hunger Games movies put out a series of “in-universe” propaganda videos. (They were presented as though the propaganda was to members of the Hunger Games world. It was very effective for those who were familiar with the universe.)

Yesterday, there was a new propaganda video released.

What I found especially fantastic, (in addition to it pointing out the theoretical implications of how District 13 may be turning into a “Capitol Look-Alike”) was the subversion of the Mockingjay symbol.

For those of you who do not remember, this is what the transition from the book “Catching Fire” to “Mockingjay” looked like:

If you look at the end of the new propaganda piece, you should notice that now the Mockingjay’s “wings” have turned into the soldiers of war.

I thought that was a really cool effect.

Enjoy your Friday!

Some “sweet” art

Hiya, Fluffsters!

So. Some people make cookies into artwork. It’s pretty impressive. And slightly crazy.

And then they make tutorials on it, which just really shows how insanely much time things like this take. Seriously. Here’s an example.

I mean, did you catch the part where the cookie is supposed to dry for 8-12 hours?

Yup, not necessarily how much time I would spend for a… cookie. That could be gone in about a minute…

Anyway. Have a great day!

A More Disturbing Post than usual

Greetings, readers!

This post might not normally qualify as “fluff”, since it is not a particularly fluffy post.

Nope. It is here to inform you that there is a movie called “The Stanford Prison Experiment” is coming out this summer. A trailer for it was posted a few days ago.

As a warning, you might find it a bit disturbing.

Now, as an explanation: This movie is based on a real incident. The Stanford Prison Experiment actually happened. This is, in fact, one of the main reasons why researchers in your world now need to fill out “Institute Review Board” applications for permission to do their experiments involving human subjects.

What I find interesting is that this is an infamous piece of research, and it is being turned into a movie. That is, a piece of academia is coming to theaters.

I hope you have a good Tuesday.
