Part the latest of Edgar Wright's ongoing video diary of shooting Pilgrim: this week, Toronto itself (and its weather) as one of the unacknowledged characters of the movie/comic.

Praystation.com (remember that?) artist Josh Davis has started selling (cheap!) prints of his generative art via bigcartel.

A little bit mind-bending: "What's going on?

Imagine a person standing at a street corner. The projection begins with a three-dimensional representation of the immediate environment. Close buildings are represented normally, and the viewer himself is shown in the third person, exactly where she stands.

As the model bends from sideways to top-down in a smooth join, more distant parts of the city are revealed in plan view. The projection connects the viewer's local environment to remote destinations normally out of sight."

Well, it's Julian Koster, mostly, but if it's important enough to dredge up the NMH name proper, then it's good enough for me.
