This is just a collection of links to various destinations that I have found interesting. Not a linklog, nor is it a blogroll (remember?), but just waypoints for myself. And you, if you are bored on a rainy day, stuck in Peoria.


Arkitekturbilleder

Enormous amount of photos of buildings and such from around Denmark and some also of work by Danish architects abroad.

BBC Sound Effects

The most marvellous collection.

Der Durchwanderer

A lot of very thoughtful and well-written essays on, eh, history and philosophy from an erudite and decidedly European standpoint.

Every Noise at Once

Audio samples of 1500+ musical genres.

Fonts that go together

“We’re revealing designers’ decisions for all to see; peeking under the hood of beautiful websites to find out what fonts they’re using and how they’re using them.”

Long story, short pier

I think I followed Kip Manley’s blog decades ago — and it is still a monumental sprawl of erudite text and some fiction and a wonderful design.

ooh.directory

“A collection of 1598 blogs about every topic”.

Ribbonfarm

In-depth articles about many, many things by Venkatesh Rao et alt. Most are delightfully ‘difficult’ and dense.

taCity

“A site about the political ephemerality of the socio-urban world”

The Electric Typewriter

A lot of interesting stuff, not least How to… Great Essays about Essential Life Skills.

The Magazine Rack

The Magazine Rack is a collection of digitized magazines and monthly publications.

UCSB Cylinder Audio Archive

Early cylinder recordings digitized and made available.

Ungdomsblade i 60’erne

Peter Lehrmann collected Danish youth magazines and has digitized loads of them.
