Come Wander With Me

Composed by Jeff Alexander and sung by Bonnie Beecher
For the Twilight Zone episode of the same name.


 
He said
Come wander with me love
Come wander with me
Away from this sad world
Come wander with me
He came from the sunset
He came from the sea
He came from my sorrow
And can love only me

There are many covers of this song. But no one can match her voice.

The Illustrated Guide to a Ph.D.

(Found by a friend of mine, it's very simplistic [in the artistic good way] and  rather cute, I think) :

"Every fall, I explain to a fresh batch of Ph.D. students what a Ph.D. is.
It's hard to describe it in words.
So, I use pictures.
Read below for the illustrated guide to a Ph.D. "
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Imagine a circle that contains all of human knowledge:

By the time you finish elementary school, you know a little:

By the time you finish high school, you know a bit more:

With a bachelor's degree, you gain a specialty:

A master's degree deepens that specialty:

Reading research papers takes you to the edge of human knowledge:

Once you're at the boundary, you focus:

You push at the boundary for a few years:

Until one day, the boundary gives way:

And, that dent you've made is called a Ph.D.:

Of course, the world looks different to you now:

So, don't forget the bigger picture:

Keep pushing. 

Art from the Future?

"25 Abandoned Yugoslavia Monuments that look like they're from the Future"

Stunning monuments. It would be great to get a description of their actual size. Or to have a person standing beside one of them for a reference. Quite a few of them remind me of Beksinski paintings...

The "alien"istic qualities that they all contain. Telling a story of a tragic ending for a mighty society past its prime. They are absolutely gorgeous pieces...

I really like a few of them: "Tjentište", "Makljen", "Kadinjača", and the one above, "Podgarić".

Biggest Drawing in the World

It's fantastic, the world as your canvas.


Obviously, it's not exactly as drawn, because the world is round. The actual image would be a lot more shakier and distorted.


But, it does create the idea of what would we see if we all traced our steps. Literally or in other senses - it'll be really cool, because it'll be like us, quite unique and fascinating.

(And, the guy must be pretty well off, or at least had a lot of sponsors to pull this off)
