Black Cab Sessions
It’s nice to see somethign different come along when it comes to bringing music to people via the web. The Black Cab Sessions is just that. Increadible preformers have just one take, in the back of a cramped moving cab to sing and play their hearts out. The result? Moving preformances that while, striped down [...]
Puppy Cam
Well if you haven’t seen it you should. Pretty much a camera and puppies as a live stream. Get your cuteness quota in for the day. Better hurry though, they will be adopted at some point.
Scanner Camera
This is pretty cool, you can build a camera with an old scanner, some foam core and tape. Check this out:

Ok, at some point I’ll get back to putting some photos back on this blog. Right now I’m getting ready to fill in for 3 weeks at Kent State teaching Photo Technology, should be fun. Anyway, Tina Fey still rules…
“I can see Russia from my house!”
Simply great. SNL should pay Tina Fey anything she wants to have her back. Damn this is funny.

Great talk from The photo director for National Geographic, David Griffin. He speaks about the power of photography and how photojournalism connects everyone with the world around us.

OK, even if you don’t like the Red Wings, the Wings-Avs in the playoffs is always fun to watch. Reasons….here’s one:
Yellow Drum Machine
Ok, this is pretty cool. This guyy fritsl made a little robot that can drum and learn and will play along to claps, record samples and generally kick ass. Let’s Make Robots is a fun place to geek out for while…
Modest Mouse – Fly Trapped In A Jar
Sweet video for a great band. It’s directed and created by The Saline Project, who I’m pretty sure hails from London and does some incredible motion graphics work. A few more videos on their site you can enjoy. Anyway…..the mouse…..
What Larry Craig Is Looking For In An Intern
I know, I know another video, but hey if it’s making fun of politicians and it’s funny, I say it goes.
Remembering why I still drum
Damn, been awhile since I saw a drum solo from Neil Peart. Always impressive. Probably one of the single most influential drummers on myself, some of my friends and thousands o drummers around the world. Hell of a drum solo and lyric writer for that matter.
Nothing Says Valentines Day like an Underaged Serial Killer
Gotta love this trailer/video from The Raveonettes for their upcoming release, ‘Lust, Lust, Lust.’ I figured it was for perfect Valentines Day. Charles Manson, eat your heart out….

[...]
5 dangerous things you should let your kids do
Great talk. I don’t have kids yet, but at some point I will and I’ll probably follow similar standards, much to the dismay of their grandparents. I took chances when I was a kid, explored outdoors, took things apart, didn’t sit in front of a TV or video game all a day, and most of [...]
Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger
Nice version for the New Year of the Daft Punk song. Took lots of practice I’m sure.
War Pigs
So it seems every band pulls out Sabbath’s ‘War Pigs’ out sometime live now a days. I’ve personally seen both The Dresden Dolls and The Flaming Lips do it. Maybe it’s a statement on the current administration and the mess of a war we are now involved in. Anyway, here’s Cake’s version.
