I’ve been looking at polaroids for a future project, and I decided to put this together. An illustrated view of the dimensions of a polaroid. Who knows, I may save someone from spending time with their ruler.

Give your opinion.Music For Airports was the first Eno album I ever listened to, and it has had somewhat of a profound impact on my ideas of simplicity and beauty. The song ’1/1′ is particularly beautiful. It could easily be the soundtrack to my life or anyone’s, but the surprising thing is that it fits flawlessly in airports. In airports, I always get this unique feeling of calm after I find my gate and have some layover time. There are so many stressed and rushing bodies all around, but I have absolutely nowhere to go, and nothing to do but wait and think about my destination. The people I’ll meet. The people I’ll leave. I get the slight feeling of nervousness, which then is subtly offset by thinking about how utterly alone I am in a place with so many people and I am okay with that. This song is the feeling explained.
Give your opinion.I first heard of Robert Fripp after buying a Giles, Giles and Fripp album from the dollar vinyl bin in the library. Anyways, I love this video of him on some television program in 1979 demonstrating “frippertronics”, which happens to have an incredibly soothing backtrack.
