We are made wise not by the recollection of our past, but by the responsibility for our future. - George Bernard Shaw

Green Porno...

I saw Isabella Rossellini on a rerun of The Graham Norton Show last night (hillarious). She was promoting her series of acclaimed online shorts called Green Porno. She told Graham that she has always been interested in animals and that they've always made her laugh so she created Green Porno, a series of 2 minute videos in which she acts out the mating habits of insects and sea creatures. They are highly entertaining and, according to the Sundance Channel website on which the shorts are featured, 'scientifically accurate'. Huh.

There are so many videos to watch - she's been creating them since 2008. I really liked the bee one (damn those drones, they don't do anything!), but others include barnacles, spiders, whales, dolphins, earthworms, fireflies, and the list goes on! Rossellini has since followed up Green Porno with Seduce Me, a series on the seduction rituals of animals. She is such a glamourous woman and I think that adds to the hilarity of the shorts!
