Gorillas Don’t Blog

Gorillas Don’t Blog is a blog I’ve been looking at for some time now. The person who operates the blog basically posts his vintage photos of Disneyland, which interest me not so much for their nostalgic quality, but the fact that I think Disneyland is a really bizarre place. I always found places like Disneyland and Las Vegas to be really weird, but it wasn’t until I learned about 19th Century Universal Expositions that I began to understand why. Their constructed reality is really interesting, and I think that some of the images that can be found on the blog showcase it really well. I think that it only becomes apparent that these images are from Disneyland when viewed as a whole. Individually, it only is obvious when you look at all the details.
