Living in Ottawa, I encounter a lot of people who like to slam this city. “Nothing happens in this city” is the usual excuse for not going out and doing anything—so they end up doing nothing. Well maybe they should open their eyes and see all the unique things that are happening around them.
The famed Mayfair Theatre in Ottawa is presenting a live presentation of Night of the Living Dead. The film will be projected minus the sound. Dialogue, sound and music will all be performed live in the Theatre. This is the first time the live performances at the Mayfair have included live dialogue. It should be an interesting evening.

In a statement released today, Adobe announced that the company will break with it’s traditional approach by introducing no new features with CS5.
“We think what our customers want is honesty,” a spokesman explained. “Think back over the past decade of releases—can you name a single useful feature that was introduced in CS4, CS3, or CS2? I mean, c’mon, the bones tool? Not even I know what that does.”
“We expect this approach to produce significant cost savings,” he added.
At the same time, Adobe outlined what WILL be in the new release. “It will have the number 5,” the spokesman said. “Instead of CS4, you’ll be able to say you have CS5. We’ve also been working over the past 9 months to redesign the color of the Creative Suite desktop icons.”
He added that the loading graphic for Photoshop CS5 will be “breathtaking.”

If you caught the Academy Awards this past week, you probably already know that Logorama took home an Oscar for best animated short film. The film is the creation of the french collective H5—it runs 16 minutes and took a total of six years to complete. A great comment on the the corporate society we live in and it serves as a warning. Give it a download from iTunes.
