shiny, chrome, awaited  

There was talk on twitter earlier this summer that George Miller was into how Mad Max: Fury Road looks in black & white and was going to try for a monochrome version on the Blu-Ray release.

Well, it sounds like that's not going to happen, but the video was released earlier this week and with a very small amount of work, you can watch it shiny and chrome on a Mac:

Open the System Preferences > Accessibility to turn the screen greyscale and boost the contrast a little bit.

I've watched it twice this way so far, and it's excellent.

*nb: I watched this (spoilery) B&W trailer maybe forty times this summer. It's been that kind of summer.

Update: 2016-10-26 — the "Black & Chrome" version will be released as part of an $80 Mad Max box set, and is now available on Amazon, and as an iTunes Extra.

Working on a big design update for a Wordpress site — today I made a child theme with all the devops tools I want, and that feels like the right move.

In this case, I've duplicated the existing /theme/style.css to /childtheme/scss/_theme.scss which gets imported into a new style.scss
