Influences and Inspirations

I thought that I would start a new thread on Influences and Inspirations. I was 'inspired' to do this by Lon Groh’s excellent talk on architectural photography at DMVC, and thought that a good idea for a thread would be to link to and talk about examples of high and low art from outside the immediate field of visualization that motivate us and get our creative juices flowing.

So what are all of your non-visualization influences and inspirations? A photograph, a movie, a comic book, clothing design? Link to them here and let’s see if we can get a discussion going.
