We think it's all about the story. We honed it until we thought it was good enough. Then we figured out how to make it, and cgi was the shortest path.
There's something about the grand open vistas of an apocalypse. What an opening line. Reminds me of, "I love the smell of napalm in the morning." But what is it about the crazy open worlds of a post apocalypse, or a dystopian world that are so very enticing?
Greatest Sister Pwnage Ever - All hail Jillian Haker. Greatest brother pwner of all time. I love this... so much. Makes me giggle every single time. heheh.
Recently Heather Dewey-Hagborg flipped a whole lot of people out by taking random swabs of people's "dropped" DNA and converting it into busts and displaying them in an art gallery. The show was entitled "Stranger Visions". Specifically the samples she was "finding" were from people in and around New York City, but they could have been from anywhere.
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 - 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.
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 - 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.
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?
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 - 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 I really should have been paying attention to my bosses when they were asking me important...
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?
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!
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.
