Reading Technology
This is a link to a comic in the series called DogHouseDiaries. I find that they are rather insightful and funny, I clicked through more than a few of theses and laughed. The art style is simple but the captions are hilarious. Some of the comics feature long dialogues and others are simple and straight to the point like this one. I hope that you'll enjoy them as much as I did! Here is the link to their website: http://thedoghousediaries.com/ I have included one of the comics below.

Mouse Painting
So there is this really cool website where all you do is make this abstract paintings with your mouse. The style you use to paint is the dripping, pouring and throwing of paint onto the canvas. It's based off of and dedicated to an artist name Jackson Pollock who painted in the earlier half or the twentieth century. You can read more about him here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jackson_Pollock Anyway this is a crazy fun thing to play around with for a little while so the link to paint is here: http://www.jacksonpollock.org/ Just click on the picture in the middle of the screen to start painting with your mouse then click to change your color, a random color will be selected for you. The slower you move your mouse the heavier or thicker the paint goes on the canvas and the faster you move your mouse the lighter or thinner the paint goes on. There is an example of one I did rather quickly below but I'm sure if you took your time you could make something really extra spectacular!

This video is every one of the previously stated adjectives. It's practically indescribable. The time and effort and artistic skill put into it must have been immense and consuming. Just watch it and see what you think.
