CSS animation

Wow...NY Times has this short story, illustrated by Attila Futaki that has an interactive animation going on with the scroll..it's a simple 3d layered zoom but sooo cool! Check out the story and what I'm talking about:
Tomato Can Blues

I'm seeing a lot of these new css-based animations- which reminds me of another super cool animation (animated ENTIRELY in css!) that I was led to via my fellow Gamomo friend Kenji:

USSAG: Erotic Friday 13th Opening

There were some mysterious masqueraders as well:

My lovely friend accompanying my lonely self to this show.

Afterwards, since it was 2nd Fridays (something similar to Vancouver's SWARM except more frequent! - all the local galleries open their doors to the public), we went to check out some other work being shown in neighboring galleries:

USSAG: Art Drop Off

I just dropped off my artwork at Ugly Step Sister for the upcoming group show over the weekend. Since my lovely sister was in town to visit, I dragged her along to help me out :)
