Stuff to look at.
* This week's blog icon is one of my favorite pieces from Eric Joyner, whose website is a virtual treasure trove of robots and donuts. Eric, of course, is the artist who provided the cover image for Backwards City #3.
* Jacek Yerka, painter of fantasy worlds. Via RaShOmoN. The one at left is called "Pearl Harbor."
* I enjoyed watching The King of Kong, the recent documentary about intense rivalries in the arcade community, but it's now obligatory to follow up that admission with a link to the criticism of the film on both factual and aesthetic levels.
* And xkcd explains how it works.
