shark and whale

A shark biting a killer whale in half? Preposterous..unless of course the shark is wearing a hat and sunglasses. I'd like to see that shark do battle with Cool Sun Dude. Anyhow, many thanks to Joester for sending the link to what might be the most cathartic Flash game ever (lots of very excellent prey).

Yay for Leah Sandals. She posted an excellent report on the Toronto Biennial forum that happened at MOCCA on Saturday. I was secretly hoping she'd do this, since I couldn't make it and I've been curious. It sounds like there was a pretty provocative (and entertaining) presentation by Philip Monk. Leah herself also makes a really good point about local expectations, and puts out a call for conversation.
You also have to be realistic; Canada may be a wonderful country (I certainly like to think so) but it is also a rather small one in terms of population. I don’t think it’s very realistic to aim for more than (or lament being) “a second or third tier country” at Venice. Sometimes all you can do is do your best, be a pro, market the hell out of it, and appreciate the coverage you get—which I’d bet is actually a fairly high proportion relative to Canada’s population size.

Then again, maybe I’m missing some data. What is this other country that people think Canada should be “equal to” artistically? Or a city that people think Toronto should be thought of in the same league with (other than Vancouver, people!). If you have ideas beyond the usual unreachably-megalopolis suspects (NYC, London, Paris) please share in the comments. Is it that Sydney and Auckland are outshining TO? What’s a reasonable point of comparison?
Go and tell her what you think!
