This was a drone show at San Diego's Seaport Village, as described in

.

On a more serious note, I'm expecting we'll get more reports of aerial weirdness from San Diego now that Seaworld San Diego has received approval to run 110 drone shows over Mission Bay over the next year.
 
For those who made the mistake of watching any of "Turtle Dreams," may I make it up to you in some small way with...

REG KEYHOE AND HIS MARIMBA QUEENS!

with Frank DeNunzio, Jr. on the bass (his highlight moment is amazing)

I watch this about every other month, I find it impossible to be sad for the rest of the day.
 
I dared. And my g/f now hates you. By about 6 minutes in I thought I was starting to feel queezy, but then I realised it was just my intestines attempting to crawl out of my body so that they could wrap themselves around my neck tightly enough that bloodflow to my brain would cease, as would further visual and auditory processing.
That is just the perfect image for your new avatar :p
 
Don't feel pressured.



I have always liked the images of the surface of the moon with the moon in the sky. My memory is that this happens in the weird 1983 performance art film "Turtle Dreams," with a cut from the image below that shows a closer view and that that's not the Earth up there, but in fact the moon... but nothing in this world would compel me to watch THAT again to be sure...

I liked it, thanks for the recommendation. I don't think the turtle is meant to be on the moon, it's walking through an empty city in the previous scene? And it's all a dream anyway.


By about 6 minutes in I thought I was starting to feel queezy,
Probably due to the oscillating camera pan. I thought that was a clever idea, but it could probably cause motion sickness.
 
Every laser is a photon laser.

I guess that when the alien invaders are on ops, they have to be careful to avoid use of words or phrases that might be mistaken for similar-sounding words/ phrases, just like human militaries.

"Laser" and "Lazar" might be an obvious cause of confusion in the heat of battle, both terms presumably in common alien usage, so I think it's entirely credible "photon laser" is an approved term to prevent mix-ups. A bit like how some people say "PIN number", in case we think they're talking about pins.
 
I support switching over from 'orb' to 'bauble', as in "I observed a luminous bauble in the sky".
Forsooth it's a program of long-term baubling that doesn't result in the whole tree tipping over.
<this place is a tar pit! And a really fun one>.
Gotta do housework.
 
Bauble sounds a bit gaudy or decadent to me.
What about "bobble"? Sounds a bit friendlier.
"Bobbles" were a feature of some Vernor Vinge science fiction stories. A faction called the Peace Authority develops the technology to generate impermeable and apparently permanent spheres of force around targets at a distance, which they use to bottle up the world's military forces and take over. Said spheres also wound up reflecting all light and other radiation, so they were shiny "bobbles" engulfing military bases, aircraft carriers, missile fields, etc. All inside were presumed to suffocate and die -- until the first bobbles started popping...
 
If Mick begins to click on live TV; that's what it is going to take. (dagnabit).
This also gives me an amazing idea for a Halloween idea for Mick, no costume needed. Just a small hidden player for the clicking noise. Scare the poop outa people. Kids would drop that candy and shoot off like little UFOs.

Gotta love the little lantern light behind the rear door.
If we're talking about fun details on big vehicles that have been repurposed, then how about this one, based on a 1960's US ambulance chassis.

The one and only, Il Tempo Gigante.

It was made as a life size functional replica of the model that was used in a 1970's Norwegian stop motion movie (Flåklypa Grand Prix). They got this thing up to 250kp/h, but had to stop there, as it was going to shake itself to bits.

Whenever I see any vehicle with cute details added to them, I think of this car. I worked on the game based on the movie, and the remake of the game, which including making the 3D model of this thing, so I saw it and the movie model whenever I visited the studio to pick up stuff, or take reference photos.

The best little detail are the little vials of "blood" on the side of the car, in case of accidents. Two with red "blood" and one with blue (with a crown label on it), in case of running over royalty.
 
These "w…ife" creatures you humans keep on mentioning… What compels you to be punished in such a manner? :p Clearly they are trying to assassinate you! I'm happy to be a single alien, with complete control of the saucer. No "Zibit! Go to your gamete cave to do that!" You humans, geeez…. I'm just kidding. But you have to be sure to beam up the right one.. I beamed the wrong one up and experienced two years of missing time. Then the most amazing dog in the world beamed ME up. Best thing that ever happened to me.

My husband exemplified the "husband vs refrigerator" trope by opening the door, and instead of observing the big white gallon of stuff (top shelf center), would turn his head, look at me, and ask if we had any milk.
Ahh.. one person made of two. Luvy Wuvy. I think my ex would be better approached with the wife vs trapdoor or secret door model. There one minute, then poof!
Other than "meeting another". For years I thought the lyrics were: "You let another, and ppht you was gone"

I wish I could be Taylor Swift's songwriter!
