Cinemagr.am Me.

March 28, 2012

I do love cinemagram.

I am not sure why because it is right up there with the time wasters that are Tumblr and Twitter, both of which I am truly and madly in love with.

I just think there is something eerie about these gif still/motion photos.

Here is a couple I prepared earlier

Get this app for your iPhone then email me the results and I will do a feature post on user created  cinemagr.am(s)

email your cinemagr.am(s) to Pandainabattlesuit or tag me on the app.

Look forward to seeing them. It is a bit laborious trawlling through the millions of them on the App, so this shoud be a good way to feature followers works.

Aural Stimulation #7

March 25, 2012

James Blake is just amazing. An electro artist I have only just stumbled on. It is worth every cent of the purchase price and more.

I was listening to my local radio station which usually just plays popular music, like Nicki Minja’s latest dive bomb, don’t  get me wrong. I love Nicki Minaj, but only when she is doing what she does best. Anything but dance music.

James Blake seems to be able to capture a million human emotions in 3 minutes of glitch style electro ballads, that are just beautiful.

His music is just amazing. That is all I can say. The Lyrics are short soft, almost haiku, of only a brief glimpse of information that you need to be enveloped into the songs.

I cannot recommend this album and his EP enough.

Go and get it where you can, although this time I will promote you get it through iTunes.

His website is amazing too. Link up the top of this post. Please support and listen to awesome music like this. Help free the world from people that are getting paid far too much money like the wanna-be rapper Professor Green.

 

Sarcasm and Math, What more could a boy or girl want

This comic blog, is by funny the only funny thing you will ready in the next 30 year generational time period, that represents the time it takes for a generation to create a new generation. Boring huh, yeah  I know so go here to XKCD and waste some time.

Some examples.

This indeed would be nicer than a fish tank. Maybe the nerd in me?

Too funny, mind you come three o’clock when you are brain dead and still have another 40 hours in the work day to fill, it sometimes becomes impossible to laugh even though you find it funny. That is ok too. just shrug your shoulders and et a full block of chocolate. Everything will be ok.

 

Anastasia Arquitetos. Residenciais.

March 15, 2012

[via Design Milk]

Stumbled across this beautiful work of art which only lead me to even more beautiful works of art over here at Anastasia Architects, like the Novosite, ?if that is its real name.

A little bit. It looks like its the way housing should have gone in the seventies, had bauhaus rule all empires in the western world. Aside from that it looks extremely liveable. I know I post a great deal of houses that look beautiful but I reality even the minimal ones would be great to live in but great doesn’t always equal comfortable.

The indoor balcony is always a smash hit, and especially given the retreat is upstairs and away. almost like a modernistic treehouse of sorts.

The house look really elegant but at the same tim eeasy and comfortable to live in which I think a lot of architects are missing the point on these days.

Perhaps it has something to do with the furnishings as well, I have now doubt but the contours, angles and living space layout contribute greatly to how you go on to furnish your home, and how those furnishings accomodate your weary legs.

Make sure you head to their site, and view Villa Castela, in all is cantilever beauty. and view the site in Brazillian, it adds to the experience.

Sometimes I get very hungry

March 8, 2012

Its true you know. Don’t you ever just get very hungry?…I’ll get straight to the facts. My Sister in law is a magnificent cook. Like proper magnificent, it runs in the family but she has a particular talent. We have been thinking about pushing her against her will into a book publishing store/business to ask them to let her do a book, but alas she we be in it. But, I do have some amazing news, she with help of yours truly has started her own website. Featuring none other than ……..Her Cooking, and sometimes on a daily basis.

The Push came the other day, we had just returned to their house for a visit after some time away travelling up the north coast of NSW. We had just finished Dinner. Sister in law in question says (not verbatim) something along the lines of  - “I should russell something up for dessert, what about some apple pie?”

Holy Fucking Shit.

After about 20mins of her and partner walking around as she likes to say to me ‘with the broom up their arses’ – alluding to the fact they have committed to too many tasks at once, out walk my sister with an apple pie. Not any ordinary apple pie mind you. A crazy apple pie. Perfectly stewed sweet apples glazed with the essence of brown sugar and southern american dreams, spread out on a most perfectly no perfect star shaped pastry. It resembled a beautiful Apple star like false god of deliciousness.

Here is a picture. We did not have time to take one at the start as it was too edible. We scoffed (?spelling) it.

Looks good huh?

This picture gives you a little bit of a reference point for how the whole tart/pie/thing was served up.

It was after we finished eating this (2 mins later  - I set my mouth to ‘Dyson Mode’) that Mrs Panda piped up “You should so start a food blog!”, the reply was “yeah maybe, do you think?”

It was all I needed, if she wasn’t about to do – Pandainabattlesuit.com would surely facilitate it, and so we did.

Please drum role – I would like to now redirect you all (after you finish reading my hilarious anecdotes of course to my sister in law’s new site.

I just <3 Food 

This amazing blog will tempt you, and make your hunger worse and your taste buds swell and engorge. Best thing about it, is I get to eat a lot of it.

Please head over their and check it out, whilst it is only fledgling at present, it is sure to be great in the not too distant future.

Oh and here is some other pies I have had recently, whilst on leave.

All from an RSL club. Exquisit. soon to come I will post a bit of a photo montage re: the lovely surrounds of another trip (quite touristy) to Coffs Harbor
