A Short Film Made from Cross Stitching
(Video Link)
Maggie and Mildred is a short film by Holly Klein about the make-believe adventures of two little girls. She cross stitched all of the characters and scenes, and then animated them. In an interview about the project, Klein wrote:
It took me about nine months to stitch all of the elements. I stitched the house first, then made the characters with all of their parts and outfits seperately. I then scanned everything into the computer, cut them out, and animated them in the computer. The whole process took me just under two years.

"Steampunk" Anthology reviewed, Story-by-Story
Avi Abrams reviews stories by Ted Chiang, Joe R. Lansdale, Paul Di Filippo, etc. included in the "Steampunk" anthology, edited by Ann and Jeff VanderMeer -
"...It is one heck of a ride, and it has everything a dime novel should have - mystery, wonder, adventure and crazed horror mixed with deeply dark atmosphere. You've been warned, but by all means, if you just watched, say, "Crank 2: High Voltage" and came out unaffected, then you'll see no problem with this novella either..." LINK

"M.C. Escher-Adventures in perception" pt.3 LINK
A lovely film showing some of Escher's finest work, slowly to creepy music- a special treat is at the beginning of "part 3"- a very brief look at Escher in his studio just a while before he died, drawing, carving a block, printing...a rarity screenshot from 16mm- enjoy!
