Continuing on my election kick, check out “We Need a President (It’s Obama!)” from Bay Area artist Eklectyk, and members of the Napalm Clique. The viral video caught on pretty quickly with local media and blogs, and the video’s director even had a request for a copy from Oprah at the DNC.
Curious about all the fuss people are making about CERN’s Large Hadron Collider? Fear that it will rip the fabric of space, where time becomes a loop? Just love to jam? Either way, science has never been cooler.
Check out this great, original stop-action music video from Dan Meth, producer of The Meth Minute. If you haven’t seen any of his stuff, be sure to head over to ChannelFrederator.com:
It has a nice iTunes Store feel to it, but without having to buy anything - TV shows, podcasts, movie shorts, all free and all playing smoothly. I recommend you download it (it’s free!).
Also, this is perhaps the smoothest-running 1.0 version of anything I’ve ever used (apparently bug-free).
Folks, if you’re ever in need of some groovy music and/or video or are looking to expand your musical horizons, particularly on a slow working day, check out my boy Max Abelson’s Super Groovy Music/Video Spectacular (aka “Max Abelson and His Funktified Flying Fortress of Fantastic Videos of Music”– these phrases are copyrighted, folks!).
Each day, Max and his gang of Oompa Loompas over at Tumblr pour through the series of tubes that is the Internet and find awesome, old media content that I personally could never find on my own. The programming schedule roughly breaks down as follows:
Mondays: ’60s
Tuesdays: ’70s
Wednesdays: ’80s
Thursday: ’90s
Friday: ’00s
Saturday/Sunday: ????
Today, for instance, check out the throwback to Gilberto Gil, from 1967. The video quality may not always be great, but the material Max comes up with certainly is.
Here’s a background short on Baron Davis and Emanuelle Chriqui’s film, One Shot, that we profiled last week. Is this what professional athletes from Hollywood do in the off season?
[Editors note from Heywood]: Blogadilla is pumped to welcome long-time reader and contributor Nerol Someones as a new author. Be (somewhat) nice to the guy- we’re glad to have him!
