This is a fantastic take on you tube, basically you can watch any you tube video on a huge grid, a frame behind another. It gives any video an extra edge and works particularly well with this Alice in Wonderland Remix. The artist behind the music has made other strangly beautiful remixs of other films, see here.

Here’s a fairly simple video that works really well. The description says ‘Video sampled from “One Got Fat” (1963) bicycle safety’. The tune is so beautiful I guess it could be put to anything and still look good, but there’s something about this video, the disturbing masks and strange heartless storytelling of the early 60′s.

Dont Shit Your Pants

Dont Shit Your Pants – “A survival horror game.”

“You are a bald man who needs a shit. Will you make it until the time runs out without shitting your pants? Will you be able to achieve all ten Shitting Achievements and be crowned Shit King? Will you wonder afterwards if you could have spent your time more productively?”

Another interesting old school game delivered in a playful adult way, the other one being envirobear.

Enviro-Bear 2000

This is so funny, and I’m not quite sure why…

Perhaps its the way the clock bounces and smashes around, maybe its the bears lazy one handed slouch or perhaps the way he grabs the foot pedals!

There is something very cool about the monster engine sounds, the physics, the pedals, steering wheel and well, everything! It turns out, this is an actual game that can be played on windows machines, Download Here and Read a little bit more Here and Here.

It’s incredibly funny to play, especially when there’s a badger loose, jumping all over wheel and pedals. You can even crash into a boulder, and use the rocks that fall in through the sun roof to hold down the accelerator and do some serious driving ! Go EnviroBear, Go!

Inspirational Speech

This powerful speech is aimed at Berklee music students but I think it rungs true to almost any artistic discipline.
