All of Liquid Television is Now Available Online!
For its brief three year run, avant garde animation showcase Liquid Television was an absolute cultural institution. Commissioned by MTV but airing here on SBS on Saturday nights, it was a concentrated dose of weirdness, combining short skits and the odd – very odd – ongoing series to present a kind of cutting edge cultural melange. A whole generation soaked a little Liquid TV along with the intoxicants of their choice before heading out for the evening – it was, to paraphrase Mojo Nixon, a glorious time on the planet Earth.

Christopher Johnson's ASCII Art Collection was revealed to the Internet in November of 1994, back when Netscape 1.0 was "soooo much better than Mosaic" and Internet Explorer didn't exist yet. Here we are 22 years later, and if my web-server traffic statistics are any indication, ASCII art is more popular now than it's ever been. Shameless begging starts now: Running this site for the last 22 years hasn't been cheap. I would like offer my most sincere thanks to those of you who have supported this site.
Kusudama Tutorial part 1
The Japanese kusudama is a paper ball made out of multiple identical origami shapes glued together. They were traditionally used as a ball for incense or potpourri but now we see them more for decoration or as a gift. Today I am showing you part 1 on how to make the Japanese traditional shape. There are many different patterns to make a kusudama ball but I find this the easiest pattern to get started. This is also the pattern I used to make the pink flowers on the tree in the banner.

Insights into Sexism: Male Status and Performance Moderates Female-Directed Hostile and Amicable Behaviour
Abstract Gender inequality and sexist behaviour is prevalent in almost all workplaces and rampant in online environments. Although there is much research dedicated to understanding sexist behaviour, we have almost no insight into what triggers this behaviour and the individuals that initiate it. Although social constructionist theory argues that sexism is a response towards women entering a male dominated arena, this perspective doesn’t explain why only a subset of males behave in this way. We argue that a clearer understanding of sexist behaviour can be gained through an evolutionary perspective that considers evolved differences in intra-sexual competition.

How to get reviews for your work
When you release your work — your book, your art, your business — the biggest thing you fear is not failure, but silence. That no one cared. Deep down, you are certain that your work matters, that it can change people’s lives. But part of you resists being the one shouting from the rooftops about your work — you would prefer that other people doing that for you. When others talk about how great your stuff is, it creates social proof, which is a key aspect of encouraging more sales.
