Saw Wreck-It Ralph this past weekend. Despite what you may think, I'm not much of a Disney movie guy. I love the classic Walt-era stuff, but beyond 1959 my interest in Disney's non-Pixar animation is very limited. However, I found Wreck-It Ralph quite enjoyable. This is in large part due to its affection for video games, a childhood staple of mine. The film is roughly like Toy Story but with video games rather than toys. It doesn't have quite the artistry and emotion of Pixar's finest, but it's still great in its own right with many genuinely funny moments (Sarah Silverman's character is a bit much at times, but otherwise everybody is likable). Most importantly the team behind very obviously "gets" video games and the film never comes off as pandering or out of touch. If you played video games in the 1980s or 1990s, you'll appreciate this film quite a bit.

I am most pleased to have a small section in the cabinet of curiosities at the Exploratorium's Tinkering Studio. There on display are various bits and pieces of my 2003 VLCKR (very low coast KAP rig) cradle designed during a sabbatical spent as Artist-in-Residence at the museum. To complement the cradle artifacts I assembled a set of images to run on an iPad in the display as a continuous slide show.
Here they are. Many predate my Flickr days while others appear elsewhere in my Flickr photostream.

A wrecked farm truck at Williambury Station where we spent a few nights camping for a geology field trip. 270km out of Carnarvon, in the middle of fucking no where. I am permanently baffled by the remoteness.
Just in case you don't already know, Carnarvon is 900km North of Perth. Imagine that.
Sometimes I feel like a wreck,all washed up,high and dry.Yea at times I can identify :) But when I look at this I can see its beauty and potential too. I mean just a a few lenghts of timber and a wee lick of paint and this wreck could be on the seas again! :)

Photographed in Carlise Bay Marine Park, Barbados, where there are 6 wrecks...
Berwyn: Carlisle Bay ~ 20ft ~ A 70 ft long World War I French
Tug Boat sunk in 1919 by her own crew. The Berwyn sits between 7 and 10 feet below the surface depending on the tide. As a result of the calm water in the bay and the age of this wreck the Berwyn is covered in marine life including healthy hard and soft coral growth and their associated reef creatures.
Ce-Trek: Carlisle Bay ~ 45ft ~ The Ce-Trek, a derelict boat constructed of cement was sunk in January 1986. This shipwreck sits in deeper water on the northern edge of the park and is home to nice coral, soft coral and sponge growth.
Eillon: Carlisle Bay ~ 55ft ~ This 110ft drug boat was tied up for ~6 years in the Bridgetown careenage before it was sunk on 8th June 1996 in Carlisle Bay Marine Park. The wreck is easily accessqible for penetration and has an air pocket in the bow big enough to a conversation at 25′ under.
Bajan Queen: Carlisle Bay ~ 35ft ~ She was Barbados’ first tugboat named the “Pelican” when the Bridgetown Harbour was being constructed in the 1960’s. A decade later, as more modern tugboats were purchased; the Pelican was then converted to a party boat called “Bajan Queen”. The Bajan Queen holds many memories for thousands of Barbadians and visitors alike. After years of operation as the party spot the Bajan Queen was donated to the Coastal Zone Management Unit. From there with the assistance of our very own Andre Miller the Bajan Queen was cleaned up and sunk on 19th May 2002 in Carlisle Bay Marine Park. She now sits only a few feet below the surface and is accumulating some excellent fish life and good coral diversity.
Cornwallis: Carlisle Bay ~15ft ~ A Canadian freighter sunk by a torpedo from a German U-Boat during World War II. This wreck was relocated from a very high boat traffic region of the bay to this Marine Reserve on 22nd October 2003.
Barge: Carlisle Bay ~ 12ft ~ A Naval Landing Barge found in Carlisle Bay. This wreck is now home to numerous reef fish including the puffer’s bigger cousin the porcupine fish.
Wreck Beach in Vancouver, British Columbia
clothing optional
415 stairs down (and back up again)
It was very warm and the shallow water gets warm enough for swimming.
My first swim in the ocean this year.
The wreck on Londniddry beach just as the tide was coming in... Think it works well in mono but will post the colour one at some point too....

This photo of a wrecked train at Sintanni was taken by August "Gus" Firgau, 712th TROB (Transportation Railway Operating Battalion) during the summer of 1953. Gus was assigned to the Taekwangni rail station.
Taekwangni was located on the 3rd TMRS Sintanni Line. It was just south of town of Sintanni which can be viewed on the Google Earth Map: Chorwon Valley and Ch'at'an-ch'on Valley on page 4.
