Just for fun. Although I’ve lately been wondering if I’m really actually a Hufflepuff. (I mean this in a good way.)

Somehow, this was one of my favourite scenes.

Jack Frost: There's a tiny wooden baby.
North: Look closer. What do you see?
Jack Frost: You have big eyes...
North: Yes! Big eyes, very big, because they are full of wonder. That is my center. It is what I was born with, eyes that have only seen the wonder in everything! Eyes that see lights in the trees and magic in the air. This wonder is what I put into the world, and what I protect in children. It is what makes me a guardian.

This was created by the brilliant Judith Ann Braunn. Those of you lucky enough to live in or near Indianapolis can see an original (and definitionally temporary*) fingerprint graphite work created by Braunn at the Indianapolis Museum of Art as part of GRAPHITE, a show curated by none other than my wife.

It’s really encouraging to see good contemporary art getting >100,000 notes on tumblr, particularly because everyone is always telling me that no one is interested in contemporary art.

Francis Alÿs, Nightwatch, 2004.

Surveillance cameras observe a fox exploring the Tudor and Georgian rooms of the National Portrait Gallery at night.

All foxes are cultured and urbane.

This fox has it all figured out… No crowds and long lines, no admission fees, just art.

I have never seen three photos that made me want to write more NEVERWHERE as much as these…

Neverwhere… From the Radio Times website:

As anticipation mounts among fantasy fans ahead of the Radio 4 adaptation of Neil Gaiman’s Neverwhere, RadioTimes.com can reveal the first exclusive shot of the star-studded cast, which reads like a who’s who of cult TV.

Sherlock’s Benedict Cumberbatch and X-Men’s James McAvoy are joined by Game of Thrones and former Fades star Natalie Dormer, Doctor Who alumnus Sophie Okondeo and Homeland’s David Harewood for the tale of London Below, an alternate reality beneath the capital where famous landmarks take on a life of their own.

Screen legends Christopher Lee and Bernard Cribbins also star in an adaptation that is being described as an “audio film”.

The six-part series begins with an hour-long episode on Saturday 16 March on Radio 4 and continues with five 30-minute instalments on Radio 4 Extra from Monday 18 March.

More photos and news to follow in the coming weeks…
