fill my room full

We may never be able to afford a condo, but we sure can look at some kooky ones on the internet. The barftastic trendhunter webzine’s Eccentric Condo Exhibits include wacky wall framing, the burnt food museum, and the toaster museum. May we point your attention to the photo attached to this post, the most awesome Chorizo de la Verdad. That’s what she said?

I think I have hunted down a trend–fake museums as web galleries that you’ll smile at for a few minutes and then go on your merry way.

Wolfquest + Einstein = Wolfenstein 3d

Oh man, wolves and video games and museums, all at once! This is just dreamy. The Minnesota Zoo developed WolfQuest to engage visitors and teach them something of the cunning of the lone wolf, armed with only fangs and his instincts as he creeps into the dark night and howls at an unforgiving moon–sorry we got carried away.

Sure to capitalize on both the redneck and hipster-kitsch Big Buck Hunter market, as well as the preponderance of recent bands with the word ‘Wolf’ in their names, this has smash educational hit written all over it. Here’s the review that’s a bit more serious and considered than ours.

The descrip:

In an immersive 3D game environment, players take on the role of a lone dispersal wolf in Yellowstone National Park trying to find a mate, or in multiplayer mode, join a wolf pack made up of friends or other players. Through trial and error, instinct, and experience, players must learn how to hunt elk, cooperate with packmates, interact with stranger wolves, and compete with scavengers. Gameplay is designed to encourage players to exercise critical thinking and inquiry skills as they develop successful strategies, and develop a strong emotional connection with wolves, influencing their attitudes toward wolves and habitat conservation in the real world.

these are the facts and you cannot refute them

Suggested Donation Trendiness Report: Museums vs. Libraries vs. Archives

Archives are dominant, but all three climb and dip together. Why’s that, because of the incredible synergy brought about by the very blog you are reading right now? Also of notable note, in big cities, Museums surge past libraries, or trend that way. These are numbers and numbers cannot lie.
