Disney has announced that Pixar Animation will build a 20,000 square-foot animation studio in Vancouver, British Columbia. The studio is currently scouting locations in the city for the new facility, which will employ 75 to 100 people. The purpose of the Canada-based studio is to produce computer animated short films, which usually run anywhere from three to six minutes in length, and take 6 to 8 months to produce. Feature Films, all stereoscopic 3D work, and Post-Production will still continue to be done at the company’s main studio in Northern California. More on /Film. (Picture CC by —Mark—)

“Mystery, obviously, is everywhere. Is there a God? Mystery. What about life after death? Mystery. Excuse me, what material is the ShamWow made of? Mystery. Stonehenge? Big Foot? Loch Ness? Mystery mystery mystery. McDonald’s Special Sauce? I don’t care how many bottles of Thousand Island Dressing you show me, it’s Special Sauce. Mystery.”
Flickr users make accidental maps
Using geotag data attached to 35 million photos uploaded to Flickr, David Crandall and colleagues at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, created accurate global and city maps and identified popular snapping sites.
New York City is the most photographed city on Earth – over 12 million of the photos analysed were snapped there.
Bizarrely, the team’s findings show that the fifth-most photographed place in the city is the Apple store in midtown Manhattan. (via New Scientist)
