winter flying by RebootYourComputer. We're suckers for time-lapse photography (who isn't?), and ever since Flickr rolled out video-uploading capabilities a month and a half ago, a slow trickle of great clips—like the all-too-brief one above, of a trip towards our shore—have made their way into our Flickr pool. If you've got a few minutes to kill (and don't particularly mind being enthralled), check out some more of our favourite time-lapse videos after the fold.......

Sam Javanrouh—the man behind the venerable Daily Dose of Imagery, this city's most widely-read photoblog—has always had something of a knack for creating amazing stop-motion timelapse videos. Whether it's cars filling up an Edward and Bay parking lot or the downtown skyline (go to his archives under the heading "timelapse photography" to see more), his videos are hypnotic, beautiful, and fascinating—a chance to see the motions of the city in a new way. Javanrouh's......

The Too-Explicit Injustice of Kind Population! is: a) a popular Engrish t-shirt slogan in Tokyo b) a Sufjan Stevens hidden track c) the title of this month's photo blog show at the Whippersnapper Gallery If you guessed "c," many hand claps and cheers! You've just won yourself admission* to the opening reception of this must-see exhibition featuring Toronto's top photo bloggers: Sam Javanrouh, Chris Altorf and Jessica Hayes, Adam Hool, and Rannie Turingan. The......

Whack! Sometime in the 1990s, almost a decade before "inventor of the flashmob" Bill Wasik convinced a few dozen people to stand in a department store in New York, people started organizing massive pillow fights. This fact, among other things, led Newmindspace (myself and Lori Kufner) to declare, "our events are not flashmobs!" Whatever you call them, though, there is a massive, free, and very fun one coming up this Saturday! Hundreds or thousands......

The Raptors took the Cleveland Cavaliers 91-90 last night in a game that saw fresh faces fill in for injured key starters. Leading candidates in the election thingy debated crime, transit and garbage as usual last night for the co-sponsored benefit of The Toronto Star and CityTV, and maybe for voters, too. Quoth The Star: "The debate got so scrappy on so many issues that at one point Miller and Pitfield even disagreed on what......

We've got an invite to pass along for a launch party, exhibit, and book signing for photographer Geoffrey James' newest effort, Toronto, on Thursday night. James has travelled around the city taking shots of some of the underappreciated places in the city with his wide-angle panoramic camera.

Gallery openings are a common-enough occurrence in Hogtown, so it takes something special for Torontoist to sit up and take notice. Last night the alt-cult Japanophiles at Magic Pony christened their lovely new store and gallery space (just across the street from their old digs at 694 Queen West) with new works by Derrick Hodgson, Toronto’s own graffiti, doodles, and farm-hand influenced artist. His mix of adorable monsters and the horrors of the every......

Spacing Mag launches its third issue tonight, with a par-tay at the El Mocambo. Audio by Reid Jamieson and Audible. Work and Play in Public Space is the name of the issue, and it'll be available round town following the launch. Torontoist is particularly interested in the mag's new public space etiquette column, 'Ask the Manners Duck.' If only we didn't have to 'duck' every time an absentminded, umbrella-wielding spacehog shared the sidewalk. The issue......
