Big Buck Bunny
Also from Ton Roosendahl. This one's decidedly more Pixar-esque. Hey, go with what works, no?

Wikipedia quote - bohemianism
Ironically enough, bohemianism by definition can only exist within a framework of conservative values.
Now you know.
Now you know.

Wunderkinder
"You may have noticed that the books you really love are bound together by a secret thread. You know very well what is the common quality that makes you love them, though you cannot put it into words; but most of your friends do not see it at all, and often wonder why, liking this, you should also like that. Again, you have stood before some landscape, which seems to embody what you have been looking for all your life; and then turned to the friend at your side who appears to be seeing what you saw - but at the first words a gulf yawns between you, and you realize that this landscape means something totally different to him, that he is pursuing an alien vision and cares nothing for the ineffable suggestion by which you are transported. Even in your hobbies, has there not always been some secret attraction which the others are curiously ignorant of - something, not to be identified with, but always on the verge of breaking through, the smell of cut wood in the workshop, or the clap-clap of water against the boat's side? Are not all lifelong friendships born at the moment when at last you meet another human being who has some inkling (but faint and uncertain even in the best) of that something which you were born desiring, and which, beneath the flux of other desires and in all the momentary silences between the louder passions, night and day, year after year, from childhood to old age, you are looking for, watching for, listening for? You have never had it. All the things that have ever deeply possessed your soul have been but hints of it—tantalizing glimpses, promises never quite fulfilled, echoes that died away just as they caught your ear. But if it should really become manifest—if there ever came an echo that did not die away but swelled into the sound itself—you would know it. Beyond all possibility of doubt you would say "Here at last is the thing I was made for." We cannot tell each other about it. It is the secret signature of each soul, the incommunicable and unappeasable want, the thing we desired before we met our wives or made our friends or chose our work, and which we shall still desire on our deathbeds, when the mind no longer knows wife or friend or work. While we are, this is. If we lose this, we lose all."

If anyone could ever get all the minds of an OSS project pulling in one direction (i.e. Ubuntu) they could deliver amazing things quickly. I like to say, when talking about “enterprise” OSS:
“If you put 7 of the most talented OSS developers in a room for a week and asked them to fix a bug in a spreadsheet program, in 1 week you’d have 2 new mail readers, and a text-based web browser.”

Portal - I'm Still Alive
The song makes no sense and is weird if you haven't played the game.
Incidentally, the cake is a lie.

Falling with style
You can see why I want to visit Norway. Amazing scenery. Although if I go, it will be a view from the ground.

Dove - Real Beauty Campaign
This shows how the media warps perception of self-image. It highlights editing of content, but not how perception is influenced by factors such as selection skewing, and bombardment.
