31 Jokes for NERDS!!!

Some good ones in here.

Slinky Drop

Excellent example of Newtonian physics at work here. Still neat to watch in the slo-mo.

This guy owns at the robot

Awesome dance routine to a dubstep remix of Pumped Up Kicks. This guy looks like liquid and the song is sweet too.

Gloucestershire Cheese Rolling

Sad to see so many people getting hauled off in stretchers after throwing themselves down a hill for a wheel of cheese. Looks like fin though.

An interview with Bina48

What a weird uncanny valley this thing lives in. Why can’t we send stuff like this into outerspace?

Hello and welcome back to the Friday Five! You’d think I’d have a bunch of stuff stock piled, but I only got reconnected to the internet last week and now that I’m working from home, I spend a lot less time dicking around on the internet. I’ll settle into a new groove though. In the mean time, here’s 4 videos to keep you entertained.

Tape Generations

Tape Generations from johan rijpma on Vimeo.

Lots of rolls of tape in this one. Nice in-camera trick and execution of concept.

Pink Floyd’s the Wall by Mariachi

Off-genre covers has become a running theme it seems.

What it’s like to fly over the earth

Put this on full screen and pretend you’re silver surfer.

Mad tea serving skills

Full respect for someone who is awesome at his job!

Animated alphabet

The Alphabet 2 from n9ve on Vimeo.

D is for demolition

Eaton Rapids

Filed under: blog — Tags: — Tod @ 1:22 pm

And I’m back. The family and I are settling in nicely in Eaton Rapids. I’m working from home now, so having the house put together has taken the highest priority. My home office is set up and Corey’s studio needs a few finishing touches and we’ll be back in business. I’m so excited about the potential this apartment, town and work space has for us. More things to come soon and a Friday Five on… Friday!
