The Pirate Bay has changed up their site a bit. Now it’s all bad ass black, and has this video in place of their logo. When you’re this big, best practice doesn’t really matter.

Tumblr of the day is thecomposites, where police composite sketch software is used to draft likenesses of famous characters in literature. Recognize this guy? It’s Humbert Humbert, from Vladimir Nabokov’s Lolita. Exceptionally handsome male; slow-moving, tall, with soft dark hair and a gloomy but all the more seductive cast of demeanor.
Everything is a Remix: The Matrix
Kirby Ferguson, a New York-based filmmaker, and friends have been working on a four-part video series called Everything is a Remix.
Here, to demonstrate their point, they juxtapose scenes from the Matrix with films that it drew inspiration from. For example, as we move along the timeline:
- 0:27 - Fist of Legend (1994)
- 0:38 - Tai-Chi Master (Twin Dragons) (1993)
- 0:44 - Fist of Legend (1994)
- 0:48 - Tai-Chi Master (Twin Dragons) (1993)
- 0:53 - Drunken Master (1978)
Click through for other influences that range from a Philip K. Dick speech (1:45) to Total Recall (2:30) to Alice in Wonderland (3:24).
