Electricity

This picture on Flickr really reminds me of the anime series "Lain". It only had 12 episodes that gradually told a story about the blurred lines of the real world and the Wired, the obsession of the Wired and within the geekiness of the Internet... finding out who God really is... really bizarre and thought provoking. One day I'll burn copies from my brother (who owns the series... which is how I first heard about it).

If you've seen the series it reminds me of the opening of each episode where you see the bright city lights and the wires with voices traveling along the wires (telephone, Wired...?). It also reminds me (and this was my first thought) of every time they show Lain walking on her way to school. They show her shadow and the shadows of al the wires above her buzzing... buzzing so loudly she actually screams "shut up" half way through one of her train rides.

Lain aside. I think it's a pretty sweet photo as it notes all the wires we depend on on a daily basis. The color is fantastic. Check out the photographer's other work as well. You'll find she's got a strong photostream.
