Last night I saw a Cool Thing: someone had spraypainted "Art not Ads" across some posters near the Luna. Hip hip hurrah for memes 'n' stuff.
I also quite liked the "If you see something, spray something" takeoff of the public transport anti-terrorism ads that I saw the other day.
In other news, we went to see the animation showcase last night, and I enjoyed bits of it. Carnivore Reflux made me giggle (and resolve, again, to get on with being vegetarian). I thought Inanimate Alice was beautiful. I also rather liked Tower Bawher, despite the fact that one guy decided that it merited him laughing out loud at it (not with it).
There were a few others, also, that were quite good, although not entirely to my tastes.
In other revelations news, I am rather sad that I missed Favela Rising - hopefully I'll find it at Planet sometime.
Also: I really, really want to go to the WSF in Nairobi next year. I'm still unsure if I'll make it, though.
Music news: I have had 'Bonnie and Clyde', by the Uptones, stuck in my head for the last day. It seems unjustified. Luckily my brother is lovely, and bought me I am a bird now, so I am listening that now. 'You are my Sister' is my new favourite.
That is all.

I forgot that Jonsi was gay. But at any rate his music has nothing to do with gener or sexuality issues (unless you decide that the parentheses on the cover of 'untitled' represent a vagina).
Owen Pallet writes about his sexuality doesn't he?
We could spend hours talking about gender issues and sexuality. Maybe we should wait til you're here and we can all discuss it together! Weee!
