Watch Black Mirror Now

Each episode is a social jab, and a very loud and in your face commentary as life as we know it today. Hackers steal brain storage drives. Political Mutually Assured Distruction flaunts itself as Performance Nihilism. Voyeurism becomes rallying cries becomes voyeurism again. Its truly one of the most cleverly written shows I've ever encountered.

Fishing For Piranhas, Single Craziest Stunt Ever

Fishing For Piranhas, Single Craziest Stunt Ever - Everything about this cute little video COMPLETELY FREAKS ME OUT. It's the little things, like the fact that the woman is standing on a plank, over the water, in FLIP-FLOPS for all that's good and holy. This is beyond wrong.

Facebook A-Reel Competition Uncovered

I left Facebook a long long time ago. Alright, granted, I do have an F-book account... with one friend (my lovely wife.) but that's different. Regardless, this video is a lot of the reason as to why I plan to not use F-book ever and to not wander back to the voyeuristicness of that crazy world.

All Country Really Does Sound The Same

All Country Really Does Sound The Same - I really don't have much to say here besides... I TOTALLY KNEW IT. Finally, someone has given us incontrovertible evidence proving that all Country music songs sound exactly the same. This video is an awesome mashup of six "different" songs. Amazing really. I'm done here.

Short Film Find – Interview With A Time Traveler

Selfishly could you please tell me what happened on the corner of Main and 59th? My theory is that Paul's son died through some screw up of his. Maybe he had an opportunity to save his son and he didn't? Care to share any thoughts on that? Or maybe I should just contact Peter (writer for IWTT) on that front?

Friendly Oscars Pool Competition 2015

If you are interested in jumping in and watching the car crash happen with me this year, I've created a pool that everyone can join. Come one, come all!! Here is the information you need to jump in:

Art triptychs and Data Visualizations

Art triptychs and Data Visualizations - I recently stumbled upon a fellow by the name of Yousuke Ozawa that is currently doing an art show in Tokyo called Data Visualizations. He has taken famous classic works of art and taken the code and displayed it as the painting itself.

Glitter Bomb an Enemy

Glitter Bomb an Enemy I really should have been paying attention to my bosses when they were asking me important...

The New Old Art of Modern Breakdancing

Have I told you guys I totally dig documentaries of all stripes and colors before? Oh, that's right, I have, more than once. Well this short documentary out on Vimeo entitled Litefeet by Scott Carthy, is riveting. Apparently dancing on subway trains in New York is illegal?

3D Cardboard Safari Genius

Oh my merciful and fantastic creator are these guys in Virginia the epitome of uberness and all things cool! You can purchase cardboard builds of everything from a human skull, to a mounted boar, to a stag, to a spaceship?! This is the shizzle right here! hahah. Each of the cardboard builds go for like 30 to 40 bucks. But the idiot in me is like, um, but I want to MAKE one myself!

American Sniper Movie Review

It begins and ends right there. The struggle for Chris and his lack of awareness of the struggle. We needed a hero, but what we don't understand is that this hero-ness that we have requested Chris to take on for us comes with a massive price for him personally. A price for his young family. A price for his own soul and peace of mind. A price for his friendships and his life.

Everything everything and everything review

Everything everything and everything review - It says a ton about life, and being human. It speaks to man's tendency to abuse the holy in our lives, and to harness it all ultimately for really shallow purposes.

A New Game From Braid Developer Jonathan Blow

A New Game From Braid Developer Jonathan Blow - I just can't contain myself. It's been like Christmas everyday around here of late. So many think outside the box things going on in the world of movies, books and games. This news is going to take a little bit of setup for some of you. (Oh alright, 92% of you.)

Fireworks in her eyes a micro story

There were fireworks in her eyes. At least, that's what he thought he remembered anyway. It was the only explanation or description he could come up with now that he was unplugged. Their faces had been pressed together, the pressure intense. Eyeball to eyeball.

Experimental Web Game Entitled Within

In that same vein, at the end of the year this last year, I ran across an experimental web game entitled Within.  I saw an article about it on Zite, (which is dying, but how I find all the really cool stuff hiding on the interwebs - not looking forward to finding something else to replace it.) and then went to download and play it.  But it was as if the game was a ghost and didn't want to be found.  I caught whiffs of it, and scents of it, but poof.  It was gone.
