This is so tantalizing. Obviously this guy has some mad DIY skillz and there are some fantastic sounds being created, but I want them to coalesce into some great performance. Maybe I've gotta see him live.

pictures of dust


vik muniz, Tony smith die (pictures of dust)…

ok, check it out. this guy (vik muniz, the artist) took installation
photos of sculptures at the Whitney. then he took dust from vacuums
that had been used in the rooms where the sculptures were. he used
that dust to "paint" a copy of the photo. then he took a photo of that
dust painted copy. that’s what you’re looking at. conceptual enough
for you?

Jim Henson’s mind

This one is tough to hear, but worth it. It's also a little heavy, so let's have it on a Thursday, with the weekend within arm's reach…

Don't worry too too much about understanding what he's saying, just go along for the ride…Jim Henson was/is amazing…

[thanks to Arthur for this one…]

smoooth, Magnificat!

This vid has a fantastic soundtrack, and a story that feels like a Saturday morning cartoon gone all pcp demented. It moves from weird to weird with a beard, and this is a good thing. In another universe this would be a big hit.

It's basically about this vulture guy who has a dream that he builds an inter-dimensional car for this evil pilgrim snake, who is in turn thwarted by Magnificat who has a magical cane that can turn into things (clouds, saxophones). I think that was one of the plots Shakepeare was considering for Hamlet, but he went with the whole ghost/king/death/crazy instead.

I offer this to you to help you get through your Wednesday. Use it liberally.

the big hat

Wow you guys. So there's this whole South African rap thing going on around the internet tubes, and some of it is amazing. This particular vid is so fresh.

Sometimes I wish I could be with you when you see something, you know? To experience that fun, full blast awesomeness of something great. I wish I could be there to hang out with you while you watch this video, it's so freaking good. I wish I could see the look on your face when the big hat shows up. You'll know what I mean when you see it. Try to remember the look on your face when the big hat shows up.

Let it roll…
