Cajsa Lilliehook covers the best in virtual world screenshot art and digital painting
Francesca Pfeffer has so many fun and unusual photos I was in a quandary which to choose. There are beautiful landscapes, striking fashion photos, and mind-bending décor, but I decided to go with the cats. “At the Store” It reminds me of this speculative novel that imagines a world where animals gain consciousness and the Ants decide to annihilate humanity. It’s called Mort(e) and is great fun, though sometimes heartbreaking. Mort(e) is a cat military leader, maybe like this shopper.

I think these cats have consciousness. But do they have thumbs? (If you don’t laugh at least once, I will eat these pixels.
Other animals can gain consciousness, too. Like “Bunnies! Bunker Five” could be the headquarters of a rabbit rebellion. For some reason, this made me think of another science fiction novel, The Hollow Kingdom where humans start dying. A bloodhound and a pet crow escape from their house after their MoFo (human) died and set off on a mission to find more MoFos and to rescue domestics trapped in houses. It’s hilarious and heartbreaking, but mostly hilarious. I know it’s not bunnies, but this pic made me think of it.
Francesca Pfeffer’s photostream is a place to get lost in because there are so many threads to pull. I like that her pictures reminded me of books that I loved. I’ve read the sequel to Mort(e) but I should check if part three is out, and I am pretty sure there is a sequel to The Hollow Kingdom for me to read, too.
