thisissand.com: A Cosmic Sandbox

Ever wanted your monitor to turn into a sandbox? No? Well, get over yourself and get this:

Designers Johanna Lundberg, Jenna Sutela along with Flash programmer Timo Koro created a clever and very detailed little website which allows you to play with digital sand. To be honest, this is better than playing with real sand, since real sand is rather boring-looking and no matter how careful you are, you always get the nasty grains in your mouth! No more! Just visit thisissand.com and let the colourful grains take you a cosmic journey! You can then submit your pixelated masterpieces to the gallery and share it with the world.

Have fun.

IT'S...


I be barber number 2: Ernst Max. Here at The Lezbian Buzzcut (or The LezBuzz if feel like being hip about it), while you get your daily trim from one of the other barbers, I'll supply you with a lovely dose of the arts! I'll inform you on all you need to know, which is basically everything, so you might as well just bookmark us, methinks!

I'll provide you with info on up and coming photographers, designers, illustrators and musicians. I might even throw in a few well known ones, just for kicks!

Well, climb onto your chair, sit comfortably and enjoy The Lezbian Buzzcut!

Open For Business (Chriz's Introduction)


Hello there sir!

How are you today sir? Doing well are we? Welcome to The Lezbian Buzzcut.

I trust you understand our strictly no-refund policy over here at our fine barber.

So, lets get down to business. What will it be? Short at the back, or the front? Fringe or no fringe? Would you like to know our special? It's The Lezbian Buzzcut actually. Don't try to steal that hey, we got a patent pending.

What is The Lezbian Buzzcut? Well, it's quite simple really. It's a buzzcut of the scalp,removing all that is split at the ends of society. Much like that of Gee-Eye Jane. Sexist? Never! Some of my best friends are lesbian.

My name is Chriz, and I am one of your barbers this fine day, and I invite (nay implore!) you to heed my call. I will express myself in more ways than one.

Some days I might express myself through a mullet.

Other days I might prefer a step.

Whatever the days is, make sure to stop on by for quick buzzcutting of your scalp before a nice dry pat-down into the welcome arms of reality.

Your barber

Chriz
