Usher in the weekend with Best of the Web

The nights are getting shorter now, so let BOTW be your guiding light into this weekend. Like a beacon of creative nuggets, this week’s edition of BOTW gives us a peek at how Anthony Burrill’s new prints are created, a look at Saturday Night Live’s version of the presidential election and an article about how museums are adding in more and more digital elements to exhibition. If that BOTW beam isn’t quite strong enough, we’ve also got the twinkling fairy lights of Who to Follow, for some interesting faces to check in with on social media.
