Tales from the Hairy Bottle

It's a sad and beautiful world

Thursday, January 20, 2005

Craig Robinson has built up a cult following for the Minipops illustrations on his Flip Flop Flyin' website. These are tiny portraits which uniquely identify famous people with an unfeasibly small number of pixels. The popularity of the feature led to Craig publishing a book featuring 800 of his most popular Minipops,

He has now added a great new feature to his website, a What If... version of his life. It consists of two charts, the first showing the various paths his life could have taken in the past, and the second speculating as to the possible directions it could take in the future. It is illustrated with (slightly larger than) Minipop portraits of himself in each alternative reality, each of which can be clicked upon for background text.

The venture is typically ambitious, compelling and very funny. Highly recommended.
