BLU my mind

The folks over at the phenomenal art blog Wooster Collective had this video up from the artist BLU. It's a wicked time-lapse animation piece done on all kinds of surfaces that finds it's main character morphing into many creepy shapes and sizes.

Served!

So, as some of you may have noticed over the past week our server has been making a sound pretty close to this

We've were just getting too much love from ya'll... and just because our server went down doesn't mean we don't love you back.<3 C'mon baby! You know I love you! <3

Anyway we dispatched a motley band of coffee-fueled tech guys out this weekend to stamp out the fires,  but some fires to refuse to stay stamped. While we know you can hardly wait for the new iPod skins, and to check out the great new additions to our artist roster, we've got to ask you to bear with us. We'll be upgrading our servers in the coming weeks...

So less suck.. and more !!! we promise. Or his middle name isn't "Period"!

Brilliant or so Brutal it's Brilliant?

Ok, so I'm in a bit of a You Tube mood today and after watching that Dairy Milk ad for the 12th time, I decided to put up a couple of ads that really illustrate how amazing an ad can be and something that is so bad that it's instantly awesome.



I'd love to put up some more of these, so send in your thoughts on which ads you think are brilliant or so brutal they're brilliant.

See if you can tell which one is which....

Gorilla Marketing

Genius new ad from Cadbury's... Nothing says "I want chocolate" more that an rhythmically inclined simian with a penchant for Phil.

The new Zune Killer

The jockey shorts of Mac fan boys everywhere were filled today by everyone's favorite tech cool guy, Steve Jobs. Apple announced 2 new iPods and revamped one in a seminar at the Moscone center in San Fransisco. So without further ado, let me introduce you to the candidates...

The Nano:
iPod nano

Description: It's short, stubby and I can watch videos with it ...like a girl I once dated!

Features: Video, new iPod OS, comes in 5 snazzy colours (including cranberry...oooooo), 4/8GB, $149/$199

Thoughts: cool, small just got smaller. So now when you're sweating it out at the airport, worrying about that Turkmenistanian midget horse pornography you've been collecting on your iPod to impress your friends - don't. You can just hoop it.


The iPod Classic:
iPod classic
Description: same as video iPod before but it's got an all metal casing.

Features: Video, new iPod OS, comes in 2 boring colours, black or silver, 80/160(!!)GB $249/$299

Thoughts: Meh...athough I do like the brushed steel front and the 160GB drive - That's almost my entire collection of The OC aaaaannnnnd Laguna Beach. Word.


The iPod Touch: (must be whispered for maximum effectiveness)
iPod touch

Description: Sleek, Sexy and you have to touch the front to turn it on - kinda like my dream....TV.

Features: new 3.5" inch screen, OS X, Wi Fi capability (surf that intertron, surf it!), wi-fi iTunes store, 8mm thick!!! (that's tiny!) 8GB/16GB flash memory, $299/$399

Thoughts: I'd probably sell broken glass filled toffees to a toothless man right now to have one of these puppies. But I guess I'll just have to wait until the end of the month like everyone else.

Well Zune, are you crying in a ditch somewhere with nothing to comfort you but that bottle of cooking sherry?


You should be.
