“A friend of mine also recounted this quote that he heard Mr. Kelly say at the listening party for the new chapters of Trapped in the Closet:
“People ask me, Kels, why do you keep on using the same backing track? Why don’t you change the backing track?”
“Breathe in. Just take a deep breath [BREATHES IN]. What is that? What is that? That’s air. That’s the air we’re all breathing. Just breathe that in. We need that to survive. That backing track is the air that those characters are breathing. Without it, they would die.”

Square America also offers a brief series of stereoscopic pics reconstructed into animated GIFs, creating strangely three-dimensional images of the past.
Yet more from Square America, spotted in their Polaroid slideshow.

More from Square America, this time from their tribute to that most unheralded photographer of the past century: the photobooth.
