Peter Brings the Shadow to Life.

The title of this video created by Joe Pease comes from the essay, Shades of a Shadow - Symbolism in J.M. Barrie’s Peter Pan, an article containing paragraphs such as, “It is not uncommon for children to play with their shadows or to imagine that they are tangible. However, in order to grow up, children must leave behind this fantasy…no one ever fully grows up. Instead, growing up is a process that continues throughout life.”

Yes, it may just be a bunch of shadows, but hell - sure looks like a lot of fun, particularly when backed by the music of Nick Cave and Warren Ellis.

First Look: Andre 3000 as Jimi Hendrix. The Outkast star, who’s real name is Andre Benjamin has been spotted on set of the new Jimi Hendrix biopic, All Is By My Side. The film focuses around the period of Hendrix’s career breakthrough ahead of his 1967 release, ‘Are You Experienced?’ a record widely considered one of the greatest ever rock albums. He certainly does look the part.

The social networking behemoth, Facebook has officially released a camera app for smartphones called, quite simply ‘Camera.’

Once opened, the app showcases the latest images uploaded by your friends with the option to filter the pictures from those you really care about seeing.
