In the following clips, Australian photographer Keith Loutit used a tilt-shift camera lens to take pictures of people and objects and make them appear like miniature figurines. He then assembled the shots to build some pretty fantasic-looking time-lapse videos. Watch them right after the jump.
by Casey Lynn Contributing Writer, [GAS] The more I read about the RealDVD lawsuit (which I blogged last week), the more I feel like I’m listening to a broken record. Haven’t we heard this all before? Most recently, Wired pointed out how RealDVD is like a bong shop. After all, RealDVD clearly has a notice […]
by Casey Lynn Contributing Writer, [GAS] Last night, CBS’s geektastic sitcom The Big Bang Theory featured the MMORPG Age of Conan. Without giving too much away, I’ll just say that it explored the perils of game addiction in a humorous way. Like the rest of the show, it’s not framed in a way to mock […]

Star Wars fans rejoice, Mark Ecko has just unveiled his new collection of Star Wars-branded t-shirts and hoodies. While some of them may look totally ridiculous, such as the Storm Trooper hoodie, there are a few items on the list on which I wouldn’t mind putting my hands onto.
