Stories within stories.

The Wilderness Downtown
Code, maps, animation, live action all come together for this incredibly fascinating video.

World’s Longest Yardsale
Very entertaining.
The Beauty of the Power Game
This New York Times video slideshow of top female tennis players hitting their strokes in slow motion is utterly beautiful. Elena Dementieva slice is more of a ballet move than a tennis stroke. The brief second Kim Clijsters takes to get back on her feet is a story onto itself.
The Parent Company Trap
Holy Moly!!!!! I think I will lean towards evil and too stupid to care.

Heimo’s Arctic Refuge: Full Length
Not for the faint of heart.
In 1980, Jimmy Carter established the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge in the Alaskan Interior, cutting off 19 million acres of prime boreal wilderness from the mitts of fur trappers, oil tycoons, and would-be lodge owners alike. Only six families of white settlers were grandfathered in and allowed to keep cabins in the refuge—of them, only one still stays there year-round living off the land. His name is Heimo Korth, and he is basically the Omega Man of America’s Final Frontier.
Bowerbirds “In Our Talons”
The ending is beautifully tragic. Thanks for taking such bold chances.
