Several weeks ago, Phil Tippett's legendary animation studio in Berkeley, CA closed. An anonymous hero noticed a folder of CDs. This turned out to be hundreds of unseen hi-res images and videos from Star Wars, Robocop, Jurassic Park, etc. ~90 isos for you to browse: archive.org/details/tipp...

I'll never forget how, in the first summer of lockdown, the city stopped mowing. The fields & walkways were full of clover - bees & butterflies were everywhere. Then they mowed it. And they were mostly all gone.

4 years ago I posted a video on the 40th anniversary of our highschool band's trip to a music festival in Vienna. The music is from a live broadcast we did on Austrian National Radio from the Sofiensaal in Vienna & the images & photos are what I have. It's a time capsule. Pre unification, pre EU +

People whinging in the comments about Dr. Helm's use of the word magical. 1) One of the best scicomm-ers around. Clear yet always with a sense of wonder. 2) Pedantry in scicomm is nonsense. Scicomm is to get people excited about science & our world. 3) Don't be a NdGT killjoy.

Magical creatures don’t exist, eh? Roughly 400 million years ago, before the birth of trees, there were giant mystery cones called “Prototaxites,” which grew nearly 30 feet tall. We literally have no idea what they were. Plant: no Mushroom: no Animal: no Tell me this isn’t a little bit magic
