Little orange stuffed animal from space? What!?“) With that in mind, here’s a new one shot late Sunday night at my own desk in near-total darkness. Hey, admit it, if you owned a HAL 9000 prop, you’d do this too. Click here to see.

Couple of shout-outs: thanks to the folks behind the alarmingly accurate 2001 screen saver (free download from The Hal Project) and the simply astounding Celestia (free download here), which are what you see on the screens, giving the whole thing as much 2001 authenticity as I can muster on zero budget at 11:30pm on a Sunday night. If anyone’s really interested, I can do a little piece later on just how crappily I threw the whole thing together. 😛

Enjoy!… Read more
