Tuesday, August 5th, 2008Or genius, as the case may be…
Find out here. Don’t have time for an idiot test (or afraid you’re too dumb to pass it)? Then maybe you can try your hand at guessing people’s accents. That first link is like “Simon Says” for the web, and harder than it looks. The second link is from Language Trainers’ Group, and frankly is a little weird. The woman from Florida didn’t sound very Floridian to me. And I was a moron with the northern European accents. Got a 28. I’d love to know other people’s scores. If you’d like to see someone who REALLY has her accents down, check out the YouTube clip of Amy Walker doing 21 accents in 2 1/2 minutes.

Faces of Evil? Where’s the Bush-Cheney Edition?

Saturday, August 2nd, 2008Or maybe an evil corporate leader version?
Hans Weishäupl’s artistic project and exhibit Faces of Evil explores a concept well-summarized by Einstein’s oft-quoted statement that “The world is not threatened by evil people but by those who allow evil things to happen”. Weishäupl created uncanny images of several dictators by taking photographs of over 350 people from each dictator’s homeland, and creating a composite image using various software tools. The results are a thought-provoking reminder that we are usually, like it or not, equally responsible for the actions of our more evil leaders. Hey Hans, if you’re reading, I’m sure I speak for many when I say I’m looking forward to the Bush/Cheney edition!
