Oh, how wonderful. Victorian visions of the year 2000 on old German chocolate cards - a cartophilic journey 'back to the future'. Fabulous! Link found at Travelers Diagram. And while you're there, check out the NASA space colony art. 9:00:15 PM     |

The Street Crier. London 1753. Nice exhibition at The British Museum. 8:36:06 PM     |

How strange. Found a peculiar website with an archive of picture galleries covering topics like anarchy, dada, feminism, nudism, dance ... very strange indeed. 8:19:52 PM     |

And here is the frustrated art director. I know the feeling. 2:20:11 PM     |

HeHeHe...'Naked dance' ad was cover-up. This is London Jun 25 2003 3:59AM ET [Moreover - moreover...] "A disappointed theatre-goer who expected to see naked dancers leap across the stage only to find they were fully-clothed had their complaint upheld by the advertising watchdog today. The objection came after the complainant saw a leaflet for the Leeds-based Phoenix Dance Theatre which showed two honed naked bodies prancing through the air." 2:03:09 PM     |

Insel Felsenburg. (Dieter would have loved this.) Tristan da Cunha is the remotest island in the world, situated at 37 South and 12 West and 2000 kms from St Helena and 2800 kms from the nearest mainland Cape of Good Hope in South Africa. And it's also the 'Insel Felsenburg', at least according to Arno Schmidt. Check out the Annals of Tristan da Cunha; interesting stuff there. And here's more. 1:56:05 PM     |

Fantastic. The Robot Art of Lawrence Northey. Amazing. Link found at Dublog. 10:28:14 AM     |

Maps. I'm sure Jörg will like this: a weblog about maps, and of course it's called The Map Room. Nice. 9:30:43 AM     |
