There’s a lot to say, and a lot has been said, about the passing of Steve Jobs. I didn’t think I had anything to add that hadn’t already been stated and retweeted, but I found this quote from 1996 and I felt moved to post it here.
Wired: What’s the biggest surprise this technology will deliver?
Jobs: The problem is I’m older now, I’m 40 years old, and this stuff doesn’t change the world. It really doesn’t.
Wired: That’s going to break people’s hearts.
Jobs: I’m sorry, it’s true. Having children really changes your view on these things. We’re born, we live for a brief instant, and we die. It’s been happening for a long time. Technology is not changing it much — if at all. These technologies can make life easier, can let us touch people we might not otherwise. You may have a child with a birth defect and be able to get in touch with other parents and support groups, get medical information, the latest experimental drugs. These things can profoundly influence life. I’m not downplaying that. But it’s a disservice to constantly put things in this radical new light — that it’s going to change everything. Things don’t have to change the world to be important.

The print quality from these guys is excellent, and photographic prints make awesome gifts.

For the past two weeks or so, the entirety of Don Hertzfeldt’s film Everything Will Be OK has been up on his site and on youtube.
If you’ve never seen it, or all that you know of his work is Rejected, then you really should take a look. Don’t let the simplicity of his characters distract you from the complexity of his films (even some of the shorts that can easily be written off as “weird internet videos”). He shoots everything on a flatbed 35mm camera and I went to see a projection of this film a few years ago, where I was totally blown away.
I’m doing some animation research for a project and this is totally my jam right now.
