Three Days to Relax

Start the weekend with this relaxing flash animation called Anemophilous Formula by Owen Mundy and Joelle Dietrick. The animation is made to be meditative and aesthetically pleasing while referencing new forms of cross-pollination and re-use. The video plays music and interprets actual pollen data from Tallahassee, FL in March, 2007.

I've had the video on for hours...just let it play and enjoy. Watch those allergies!

It's a three day weekend here...whoo-hoo! I'm heading to the beach to soak up the final days of summer. I *might* be posting, if not I'll see ya on Monday-Tuesday-ish. Have a great and looonnng weekend!

    Just beautiful... soo relaxing. Enjoy your last days of summer. It's officially Spring down here in the Southern Hemisphere, on Monday. The weather has become so much warmer so quickly! Just need to get rid of those last minute winter bugs and we'll all be walking with a 'Spring' in our step! A-M xx
