I-Movix SprintCam v3 NAB 2009 showreel on Vimeo: Beautiful slow motion video shot using very high speed cameras, up to 2500 frames per second. (via Daring Fireball)
‎Lifestories On-Line Brochure: Poorly presented, if interesting, business videotaping people telling their life stories. However, the owner, Dr Ellen Brandt, @venerability, is a compulsive twitter spammer.
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society - Vol 1 - 1666 by Various - Project Gutenberg: Completely wonderful 17th century science. Fascinating subjects, beautiful titles ("A Relation of Persons killed with subterraneous Damps") and gorgeous language.

10:48am: Despite last year's determination to only do the cafe/pub track at dConstruct 09, I've now bought a ticket. Looks quite good.
11:35am: Phew, got a few passable photos out of my first black and white films in years. Also many that are entirely black except for one edge. Hmm.
07:04pm: Metadata entry and management is bad enough on digital photos. I hadn't thought about the increased manual entry when shooting film.
07:16pm: @brendanquinn Not really interesting: I'm just manually adding metadata to photos I've taken on 35mm film. Date, tagging, aperture, etc.
