Lockheed
I start working (remotely) at Netflix on Monday. Supposedly, Netflix will be consolidating their Animation operations in the office complex at The Empire Center in Burbank. When I was growing up, Burbank was a two industry town: aerospace (Lockheed) and … Continue reading
Contagion
I listened to an episode of Judge John Hodgman called “Objection! Sustainable”. The defendant had had a blog when she was in grad school called “Ecopathology” with the motto “The only cure is contagion”. Hodgman pointed out that that is … Continue reading
Phoenix
Okay, yes. I saw Dark Phoenix in the theater. More out of resignation and for a sense of closure more than anything else. However, this Chinese poster almost makes up for the movie itself. Hope that’s a comfort to Chris … Continue reading
Assemble
Much like recent Oscar nights, I can trace what I was doing in recent years by where I saw each Avengers movie. The Avengers (2012) in Banff, Alberta. The Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015) in Shanghai on my first terminus adventure. The … Continue reading
Watching
Sometimes I feel like the only thing to do is stay on top of what’s happening in the world by watching a huge bank of video monitors like Ozymandias in Watchmen.
Government
This is the Government House where the Governor of New South Wales lives. But if Sydney has a Bruce Wayne I think he’d reside in a stately manor like this.
Gateway
I assumed this shopping center at Circular Quay was named after the Aboriginal mutant.
Excelsior
Stan Lee, who knew that with great power comes great responsibility. May his memory be for a blessing.
Inselberg
At some point in my distant childhood, I developed a fascination with Ayers Rock (which was so named in 1873 by an Australian surveyor after then Premier and Chief Secretary of South Australia Sir Henry Ayers although properly known by it’s … Continue reading
Victorian II
Melbourne’s architecture is more of what I think of as Victorian. This particular building looks like a Sorcerer Supreme ought to live here.Appropriate, as the state is resides in is itself named Victoria.Much like San Francisco (which it reminded me … Continue reading
Snap
The ending of Avengers: Infinity War definitely resonated with me as I continue to think about meaning and mortality and existence.
Gotham
One of the things that always strikes me about these old, 19th century American cities is how much they have nooks and crannies that look like Gotham City. This stonework, rock outcropping, and street lamp beneath the art museum definitely … Continue reading
Falls
Niagara Falls was just as impressive (and impressively loud) as I had imagined.I shivered at the thought of falling into the gelid waters. Smart of Lois Lane not to throw herself in during winter.I did find myself yelling over the … Continue reading
Arkham
In the 1870s, the sprawling Anamosa State Penitentiary was built on the outskirts of town, looking for all intents and purposes like Arkham Asylum.
Lego III
My brother, sister in law, and niece went to the Bricks L.A. convention in Pasadena. I didn’t know what to expect, but it was fanastic! There was a play area for kids, with everything from regular blocks all the way … Continue reading
