A Human Planet and the shape of things to come

Here are a couple of videos which I think offer glimpses of the true meaning of human ingenuity.

The first is a promotional preview for BBC’s landmark documentary series Human Planet. If you get the opportunity I really recommend you watch the whole series. You can purchase the DVD from BBC.

I also like the slick little video player which is courtesy of Private Video Networks.

This vision of the not too distant future from Microsoft speaks for itself!

A time for reflection.

New babies – a koala’s progress

It is uncommon for a Koala to bear twins. Regrettably the Mum of the twins seen below was struck and killed by a passing car.

Not realising that the mother koala was dead the driver of the car took her to a local vet where it was discovered she had the twins in her pouch.

I’m not big on cuteness but what else can you say about these guys.

A great idea

I really like this idea for recognising Australia’s Indigenous heritage. I think it will be a great landmark for Melbourne.
