POPSMacLife's Software Vault A clean and well-organized directory of good software for your Macintosh personal computer. For me, it's fun to look at 'cuz of the varied and colorful icons.

POPSCute eyeless computer characters doing parkour In "Teo & Tea" by Jean Michel Jarre, a couple with no apparent eyesight do parkour through a colorful cityscape that throbs in time with the music. Watch closely as they leap chasms between buildings, stare at each other (despite said lack of eyes), and their dance together at the end is SOOOO romantic. <3

POPSUltra-giddy Japanese pop goodness from Perfume If you're looking for music to cheer you up, you gotta check Perfume out — it doesn't get happier than their particular brand of saccharine (I mean this in the best of ways), bouncy pop! Danceable tunes with fun music videos, they'll have you boppin'. :)

POPSSusan Kare, Queen of Computer Icons Millions have seen her work — how many know her name? Behind not just the Windows 3.0 icon design but the classic Macintosh faves, and *many* more, any enthusiast of computer art is encouraged to enjoy her portfolio.

POPSThe process of creating a computer art masterpiece Not literally, but figuratively: so often there are great works of art which astound, but most people don't know the laborious process that goes into making them, one step after another. This is one of many great threads at CGSociety, showing how it's done. I have even more appreciation for the artist, Alexander Preuss, after seeing his masterstrokes are carried out.

POPSBeyond the Mind's Eye - classic computer graphics Things have come a long way since this was made. If you saw this the first time around, you'll feel pangs of nostalgia like I am! Really gorgeous. There's also a clip of "Seeds of LIfe", another great track, on the page. You can see the full version of this video here: http://youtube.com/watch?v=YT7W7hBj31c Trivia: the composer is Jan Hammer, he of Miami Vice fame!

POPSeboy - incredible pixel art Absolutely delicious pixel art — you could almost lick those squares off the page! What looks like a supersaturated descendant of Habbo Hotel or The Sims' spiritual sibling will quickly burrow its way into your skull and stay there... all warm and cozy. The ghosts of the elder computers, verily, they do live on. Check out the detail in the full version! Massive.

POPSDarkseed - and more recorded Amiga games This game freaked me out when I was younger — the graphics are so terrifying, without being overly gory. Great use of the 32-color palette too. The link is to an archive of recorded Amiga games, played from start to finish. Useful to live through someone else's eyes, if you ever wanted to beat of these but never got the chance (like me).
