Appearance Over Specs ?


It seems to me that over the last few months that rumors about the iPhone 5 have been more about the appearance than anything else. Whether it will have a revamped, thinner, design, or whether or not it would have a touch-sensitve, larger, home button. Not that the overall look and feel of the iPhone isn`t of any important , not to confuse this, I personally think the that the look of the iPhone is a major selling point, but , if beneath all that beautiful is nothing but a minor internal upgrade, then why buy a new phone? Just my two cents.

Review of Bassnectar's Timestretch EP

Bassnectar is a solo project out of Santa Cruz, California run by Lorin Ashton. This dubstep project is VERY bass heavy. The songs are partially repetitive, but every time through, the song changes a little bit, always giving you a reason to keep listening. The majority on the EP are six minutes long, giving them a nice and complete feeling. The intro song has a rap that doesn't fit in with the rest of the EP. Overall this is a great dubstep album and I would recommend a listen. Turn the sub on! 4 out of 5 stars.

History of Science Fiction

Science Fiction is everywhere you look today. Whether its 2001s a space odyssey, Dr. Who, H.P. Lovecraft, Steven King or even Iron Man. With "Speculative Fiction" or as most normal people call it "Science Fiction" being so prominent in the worlds culture you might wonder where it came from, well as with almost anything in the universe it has been explained with a info-graphic.

Magnetic Void By James Miller

You might Have seen this a dozen times before but buildings and explosions in reverse never get tiring. The mesmerizing effect of the pebbles dancing to the music from the movie Moon creates a trance like state where destruction and chaos is beauty.
