My art skills peaked in kindergarten but my portable projector had me covered

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-10-02 05:00:27

Kaitlyn Cimino / Android Authority To set the stage, my artistic ability falls somewhere between a toddler with a crayon and the least helpful player on your Pictionary team. So when faced with the prospect of hand-painting a birthday banner, I was dubious, though still committed. Like any modern adult, I turned to tech, and while projectors may not have been designed for amateur crafters, they’re surprisingly perfect for the job.

In a new interview with The Guardian, the mind behind 2004’s Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and this year’s short How to Shoot a Ghost said the film industry has “everything to do with [why] the world is in a terrible, terrible situation right now.” As part of said industry, Kaufman considers it a personal responsibility to “not put garbage into th

On the rickshaw, in the evening rush hour. An elderly driver, hands on the steering wheel, khaki shirt, marking his station. His neck hesitantly swivels, as if to say something: they have arrived at their destination. An alien territory in the white-washed city. Coquettish beckonings are lined up on fractured doors as street lamps in the narrow alleys. Collapsing buildings constrict ventilation and light.
