Conwy Cows #1
I'd heard tell. Then I saw it. Welsh traffic stopped right on the road so that local cows could be walked to... wherever they were going.

Conwy Cows #3
The cows mosey. They've got their own business to attend to.

Toyota Matrix 115-Volt Power Outlet
Gear written 8 May 2008
A traditional wall-style power outlet helps turn the Toyota Matrix into a roving office.
Spitting Art
Don't be insulted. The massive animated portraits in Chicago's Millennium Park spit at you because they like you. Playful, sure, but also somehow serene, like enormous televised Buddhas, delighted by their own absurdity. A spitting fountain is funny and forgetful when it's ankle-high, but when it blinks and moves and stretches two stories overhead, it has enough weight to divide over whimsy and power alike.

Winter in the Car
Chicago's salt-crusted cars are little mobile caves where chilly, shivering souls hide out from the natural, slushy incivility of the season while going through the bundled motions of smoky, civil days. The spaces between the warm pockets — the offices, the living rooms, the cars, the cafes — feel more exposed, more animal, in the wintertime.

91st and Green Bay
Chicago's South Side in winter, grassy and metallic, fuzzy and hard and cold. On Chicago's grid system, near the lakefront, everything intersects: industrial and residential, tall and wide, business and broke, electric and inert, 91st and Green Bay.

Chicago's Lakeshore in January
Lakeshore Drive in January is all salt grime, white smoke, and steel.

The Matrix Outlet
Get the right Toyota Matrix and it comes equipped with a familiar-looking 115V wall-style outlet, great for charging phones or cameras or anything else, without oddball attachments. With the front passenger seat folded down, it's flat plastic back becomes miniature desk for use from the back seat—making it easy to charge your laptop on the go, download photos while you're still traveling, and if you're parked outside a place with free WiFi, even upload your photos to Everywhere. The Matrix becomes a roving office.

Matrix as Office
With the front seat folded flat and the outlet in the dash switched on, the Matrix makes a decent roving office.
