An Entire Town In Wales Is Covered In QR Codes; Augment EVERYTHING.
Ain’t this an interesting eye sore all over the teats of a town in Wales. Riffing off of a TED talk that talked about doing an entire down in QR codes, they’ve plastered more than 1,000 codes onto their structures and such.

Charlie Kaufman To Write and Direct HBO Series? I’ll Take It.
Wasn’t expecting Charlie Kaufman to get into the television game, but I also wasn’t expecting the dude who craft a novel. I need to just sit back and let the dude create.
Watch: ‘LAZY SUNDAY 2’, Yes It Made Me Laugh
True life confessional stylee: I loved the original Lazy Sunday back in the day (and while it was hot I think it’s not cool to like it anymore), and if this is indeed Samberg’s final Digital Short, it seems fitting to drop this as his coda.
Bungie’s Next Game Is ‘SCI-FANTASY, ACTION SHOOTER’…According to Court Records.
There were a lot of things I expected out of the Activision vs. Electronic Arts grudge match: namely wasting money and hair-pulling. What I didn’t expect was to find Bungie’s next game inadvertently revealed.
SpaceX Making Another Launch Attempt Tomorrow At 3:44 AM EST
SpaceX had to cancel its attempted launch on Saturday at quite literally the last second. We ain’t talking the overused, played out notion of the word. They crushed the attempt with a second left, due to concerns over valves and uh, things. Tomorrow they’re going to give it another go.
‘THE MASTER’ TEASER CLIP Finds Joaquin Phoenix In A Spellbinding, Violent Role
Dios mio, today is the day of teaser clips. The latest and most anticipated one for yours truly is from The Master. I can’t wait for this next flick from P.T. Anderson, and even though I’ve been riding it for a while I really haven’t given much thought to Joaquin Phoenix or his role in the movie. That ends now.
[Interview] Farel Dalrymple – Prophet Comics
As a lifelong nerd, I occasionally delude myself into thinking that I’ve acquired superpowers. Truth be told, most of the time my faux-epiphanies are innocuous. So instead of jumping to my death in a moment of perceived super-flight, I just render myself nauseous after a hyper-metabolism delusion inspires me to eat fifty buffalo wings too many.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know what you’re thinking, and I can’t disagree. I’m the type of moron that gives comic book fans a bad rap. But every now and then, my fantasies enable me to do something pretty rad.
For example, what would happen if I stopped thinking of myself as a hack-writer/petty-blogger? What if I started to believe that I could actually correspond with artists whose work I admire? And what if, in the midst of this Pepsi-drinkin’ daydream, I actually contacted someone in the hopes of sharing their words with the world?
Well, then we’d get a feature like the one I’m about to present — an interview with Farel Dalrymple.
As one of the founders of Meathaus, the creator of Pop Gun War, and one of the artists currently working on PROPHET with Brandon Graham, Farel Dalrymple is a comics creator worthy of respect and admiration. Despite his incredible workload, Mr. Dalrymple was gracious enough to respond to my semi-coherent questions. And this might just be the type of reinforcement that convinces that I do have superpowers after all.
Dangerous.
Punch it into hyperspace to see Farel Dalrymple’s thoughts on comics anthologies, his current work, and even Type O Negative.
New ‘DARK KNIGHT RISES’ POSTER Is Sort Of Generic
I’m really excited for The Dark Knight Rises, hoping it is every bit a brooding, haunting, artistic wunderkind as Avengers was the pinnacle of popcorn. Here’s a poster for it.
Monday Morning Commute: Cryogenic Sperm Tails of Thought Production
Do you understand the spatial confusion that comes with the Thaw? Here I am, freshly out of my Cryo-Pod and pressed into service. That’s right, those aghast. Rendar isn’t here this week. It’s your boy, Caff-Pow. I was orbiting a particularly interesting noodle along the orbit of Charlatan-IV where the distress beacon run. It spoke to me in words and phrases I couldn’t understand; I wasn’t familiar with.
Beep – too busy. real world responsibilities. grown-up stuff.
Beep – do you comply, brother?
Being a good space-bound brother, I obliged. I may not understand responsibilities or the real world, but I do understand the humble request from a man who descended out of the same Momma gut as me. Entering my finger-prints-semen-saliva-testicle-taint into the recognition software, I jettisoned my temporary virtuality. Good bye, Charlatan-IV. Hello MONDAY MORNING COMMUTE. The column where we share those distractions that keep us cutting while peering into the oblivion of the wash-work-wank-rinse cycle that will transport us from one edge of oblivion into the next.
