The Empire of Death is a new disturbing but fascinating book about ossuaries and charnel houses; bone chapels and bone-encrusted sanctuaries; bone fetishism; veneration of the dead through direct contact with human remains. A must have!

Lost and leitmotivs game
Oh well... it's a spanish page, but i had some fun playing the Lost leitmotivs game. As you probably know every character in Lost has his own personal music theme composed by the great Michael Giacchino. My score? 16/16!! ;)

This site, documenting the cultural phenomenon, was created by Andy Baio and Michael Bell-Smith in one day, as part of Rhizome's Seven on Seven event in May 2011].

Toronto backgrounds from Scott Pilgrim
quote [Flickr user mad5l5in5 has scoured the streets of Toronto for the locations that appear in the backgrounds of Bryan Lee O'Malley's smashing Scott Pilgrim graphic novels (which will conclude this summer with the release of the feature film). As a expat Torontonian, I was struck again and again by O'Malley's excellent work in capturing the character of the city with his backgrounds. I can't wait for the movie -- the photoset was a great reminder of O'Malley's excellent use of setting].
