In <em>The Art of the Muppets</em>, the Henson Associates staff wrote, “Perhaps the single most important aspect of the Muppet look is the set of the eyes in relation to the nose and mouth. The Muppet people call this the ‘magic triangle’: correctly positioned, it creates a central focal point essential to bringing a puppet to life in the eye of the camera — and therefore the viewer.”</p> <p>Complete article <a href="http://muppet.wikia.com/wiki/Muppet_Eyes" title="Muppet Eyes" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>http://www.jordirovira.cat/post/22532366182http://www.jordirovira.cat/post/22532366182Sun, 06 May 2012 20:55:03 +0200MuppetsArt<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3jl0lkdmd1qen4t8o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://pitchfork.com/news/46406-rip-adam-yauch-of-the-beastie-boys/" title="Beastie Boys" target="_blank">Shit happens</a>.</p>http://www.jordirovira.cat/post/22436872602http://www.jordirovira.cat/post/22436872602Sat, 05 May 2012 11:00:21 +0200MusicAdam YauchBeastie Boys<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m2xtxxv8Sf1qen4t8o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Happy 30th Birthday, <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Hy29KoBnGY" title="ZX Spectrum" target="_blank">Spectrum</a>!</p>http://www.jordirovira.cat/post/21648045177http://www.jordirovira.cat/post/21648045177Mon, 23 Apr 2012 17:05:00 +0200Technology<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m2pszdbw3z1qen4t8o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>by <a href="http://www.jordirovira.cat/about" title="Brus Güein" target="_blank">Brus Güein</a>.</p>http://www.jordirovira.cat/post/21372096448http://www.jordirovira.cat/post/21372096448Thu, 19 Apr 2012 09:04:25 +0200Brus GüeinIllustrationHumor“I want to thank my Grandma for always being so good to me, and, and for helping save the world and everything.”<br/><br/> -
