Vitruvian Swine and Flying Pigs - Redux

Vitruvian Swine and Flying Pigs – Redux

9th May, 2009

The image of the Vitruvian Swine idled in my imagination for several years before it debuted on Porkopolis.org. I have since discovered that many other folk have independently arrived at a similar conception of da Vinci and the swine. None of these have appealed to my inner oinkeological nature so much as the swine at Matt Buck’s Hack web site.

Laa-Laa's Pigtail

Laa-Laa’s Pigtail

27th September, 2008

Laa-Laa’s Pigtail: note the dramatic resemblance of the top of her head to a pig’s butt. The Teletubbies seem to be more than your average playfully self-sufficient, technological babies.
