@charlesroper it's hard to explain mate it was so mind blowing, if they make more based on the movies and are anything like this it'll be events you need in your life. I'm also converted to the RSC the work they did here was special and I wish I'd seen things like Warhorse in theare

Great review gives an idea of what to expect but best to experience it without seeing or reading anything, we went in blind and I'm so happy we did!

My wife and I went to see My Neighbour Totoro last night, was mesmerizing, not seen anything like that in a theatre production, super special and made me have the childhood feels of magic you get when watching things like Labyrinth etc. How they brought Totoro to life is mind blowing, at the end I looked over at my wife who had tears streaming but the biggest smile and I asked her if she was ok and she said she was full of different emotions and overwhelmed by alot of them but also very happy.

Black and white Illustration of musician Jim Morrison, drawn in black and white with the artist's angular stylistic shapes and strokes used to define his facial features, portraying the artist facing us, his shoulder length hair a prominent feature of the picture his eyes looking directly back at us in a blank stare

@galaxyrise sure is up there, one of my faves with some old Prodigy, Leftfield, and a few others I forget right now. MA are pretty awesome all round - most of their tracks you can easily just have on any time huh!

@AmeliaBR ah thank you!

I've done a few things with code other than websites, love messing with svgs and animating them and used to only know little bits of css to animate them but have been doing some GSAP learning and also messed with WebGL a little, will post those bits up soon, currently building my website with KirbyCMS and hope to have most of my art up before Christmas or if not then up bit aiming to get most of it up by Jan :)

Appreciate you following & having a looky at my profile!

The main staircase of the abandoned Bethlehem Steel administration building in Lackawanna, NY. Demolished.
Gallery/info: abandonedamerica.us/lackawanna

A view up a crooked wooden staircase. The walls are a mint green that is peeling away to reveal white underneath. Another stairwell leading down is mostly obscured. High above the first landing there is a window and a pail sits on one of the steps. To the right another hallway leads off into darkness

Love this:

"With the fall of the #Twitter consensus, I am energized. I remember what it was like in the 2000s; I remember the liveliness and sparkle of those days on the web.

I don’t suggest dialing the clock back to old tech, but I hope we use the good parts from those days to help us build new and amazing things. There is so much to do, and so many grand problems to solve.

The web is wide open again, for the first time in what feels like forever."
