Reflectuer- Issue 53

Posted by Ellen Bird | February 25, 2010

Reflectuer_53

Issue 53 is a fun issue. We start by looking at a number of sites that are all about social commentary via cartoons. Then there are the Tweenbots – little robots that can only travel in one direction and therefore need help to find their way through New York’s Washington Square Park… and got it!

We move on to 5 Second Films, which is exactly what it sounds like. A good, quick distraction for a long day. And finally, Panoramas.dk will show you breath-taking panoramic images from around the world – hundred of them.

Hurry up – click above for the full issue.

And since you’ve already clicked through, take a little time and learn about Mystery Google, the infographic community (talk about geek chic), and some insane awesome fan theories.

I bet you never thought watching a woman cry at the end of a movie could be so hilarious or insightful? What about watching 70+ minutes of why Star Wars: The Phantom Menace was a horrible movie?After you spend and hour plus of your life on those two, head over to Quizpedia to test your deductive skills on some random Wikipedia entries. And then, if you feel you are wasting too much time on social media sites (don’t we all?) check out our last article for some ideas on how to cute back or, perhaps, give it up entirely.

In Issue 50, we look at an incredible Lego + Matrix creation as well as the continuing popularity of the 1933 Henry Beck London Tube map design. On page two we delve a bit deeper into our collective psych by examining what we can learn about our culture from Google’s search box suggestions. Finally, we look at a few examples of the way digital culture celebrates the collection and presentation of disparate objects in manners their creators never intended.
