What can I say? I'm a sucker for do it yourself stuff? And what better do it yourself thing is there than a make it yourself thing? That's where Scrapbook comes in. Now I know what you're thinking. Well stop thinking, shut up, and look at the pretty pictures!

Wasn't quite sure how to start this off. And then I thought...POSTERS!

This is why I stopped watching Naruto... :nod:

Now I'd like to talk about something a little bit more sophisticated...art. And I don't mean the Mona Lisa like portraits. I mean the crazy paintings that make you think or just look awesome.


Exhibit A

Image

Exhibit B

Image


That's the kind of art I can get into, though I'm not much of an art person. Personally I prefer music, but there are some works that manage to draw my attention. There's one genre in particular, though, that I feel is like the art world's version of rock music. I'm talking about optical illusions. Weird yes, but I think they're both "unique" in their worlds. That's just my opinion anyway. But to know what I'm talking about, you'll have to see one for yourself.

Exhibit A
Image

Note: This is a still image. Yet scrolling makes it appear to move.

Exhibit B
Image
Note: Also a still image that makes an illusion of movement while scrolling.

It's like mind f**k!

I love picture like that. I am a sucker for illusions and 'magic' pictures, such as moving pictures. Have you ever seen those pictures where there are words hidden in it? Like these?

I like pictures like these a lot. Sometimes (I am extremely unobservant so you know)I take hours just to try and figure out where the other word is, depending on the picture. These ones are simple but you get the point. :P

I have seen one picture like that, but there was only one word (as seen below)

Image

But that word inception type stuff might take me a while to figure out, since it was hard just to find the fish word. I actually like the ones were you find the hidden stuff.

Ex 1: The Hidden Animals
I won't tell you how many there really are.
Image

Ex 2: The Test
This one I put here just because. We are in a writers world here, so let's see how many of you can spot the illusion.
Image

You know, that kind of stuff. Yeah it fits the same category of word inception stuff, but there's something about finding hidden objects and such that makes me feel smart (not that I'm stupid or anything :paranoid: )

And now for something a little more serious. Just something I've been thinking about that you probably should think about sooner or later. That's right, I'm talking about a "question of the..." thing. This will be the question of the month.

For August

I heard that in the future, they predict mankind to blend with robotics. There will be robots that look like humans, humans in robot bodies, and robots who look like humans and don't know they're robots. You've seen stuff like Terminator so you know where I'm getting at. They say that putting humans in robot bodies would actually make you immortal.

Now here's where you come in. Do you actually think that having a future populated by machines would actually be a bad thing? Personally I say yes because humanity would probably go extinct because everyone was trying to become immortal robots. But you never know...
