Ben Cuevas has shown how knitting can be art and geeky at the same time. Wasn’t that a phrase you didn’t imagine you’d be reading. Here’s another; knitted skeleton yoga. This fetching fellow was created for a piece called Transcending the Material for the Wassaic Project. On with the pictures!

Vader Time
Sometimes Geek Native will dive into the archive of golden oldie geek goodies. This is one such post. At the time of writing this Darth Vader and Stormtroopers clip has had 1.9m views. The 2 million mark is in sight. It was uploaded in July 2009. I think that counts as a classic. What do […]
Day of the Triffids Director – Sam Raimi?
Reports out suggest that Mandate Pictures have won the rights to do a Day of the Triffids movie. It was a seven figure auction, reports claim. It’s easy to see why the movie would be in demand. Movies that reflect cultural concerns always do well and Triffids scream bio-engineering and revenge of Gaia all over. […]

Locke & Key TV series in the works

R2-D2 and Darth Vadar swimsuit
The blogs have certainly picked up on this rather cute R2-D2 (aka: ‘artoo’) singlepiece swimming costume. By the way, is that the right term “singlepiece”? I think One Piece… but that’s probably just my anime brain talking. You can certainly see the social media craze around the costume as worked. Black Milk, the people who […]
Sintel: Sad but independent and beautiful
Sintel is an independent short film. It’s an animation that makes use of the open source (free) 3D Blender software. The film itself was funded by 1000s of donations from the internet. Seen it? It’s certainly deserves to be on every geek’s watch list and it’s only about 15 minutes long. The premier was in […]
