Quirky photos, videos, interesting art, alternative tunes and a few newsy articles thrown into the mix.
Sparkling nuggets of digital goodness sifted from the interweb that may or may not appeal to nerdy gen-x'ers.
Some of the photos are my own.

Swanking in South Africa! A fashion show for rural men who want to dress up in fancy suits - a throw back to when men who came back from the city would show off their posh suits to the village. Fascinating!

publicmediapedia:

Not public media at all, but so cool I had to share.  A short documentary by Al Jazeera about South African “swenking,” via Put This On.

    “I will see you, but you will not see me.” I have no words. Start at 0:57 and watch the whole video.
