2 good articles up on pitchfork today. I like these

Resonant Frequency #67

Grime/Dubstep

Here’s an interesting one:

Another new vid from Keith Schofield who did that Justice Lenny Kravitz mess below.  I didn’t quite get the concept at first, but did find the video beautiful.  Reading a few comments I see what’s going on.  He’s taken notable images from the internet (particularly from sites such as ffffound) and recreated moving versions of them.  Some find it plagiaristic but I think it’s a smart take on internet culture.

Here’s a bit of literature about it:

Another Video I can’t post here. This is such a great music video.  I don’t know why why why they would want to do this song, but kudos to the man who decided to turn it into a great vid.

Oh jesus this trailer is SO GOOD! I have no idea if the movie will be, but the trailer itself is a work of art.  Amazing

This site’s the holy grail for metal and HxC albums.  Super out of print split 7″s from the late nineties that you didn’t even know existed.  BOOM!

So ends up that not having a (steady) job and actually trying to stay busy and stay afloat in this wrecked and wretched economy actually means not having enough time to float through the internet and laugh at funny things all day.  Although I do make enough time for twitter and facebook, admitedly.  But still, makes me a bit concerned for the productivity levels at most corporate jobs.  What was productivity like before the internet? How did people dick off all day? I’m intrigued, someone please tell me!

In the meantime, I’ve been working on a few things.  I’ll post them as they go online, whenever that may be.  For now here’s 4 videos I made for Yo La Tengo.  I like em, hope you do too

this is my new favorite video/song. i cant get enough.  love, youthful abandon, mixed media, satanic ritual, titties in a pool. bring it on!

Get some!

This is endearing.  I love these two so who knows if I’d like this vid if it weren’t them.  What’s up with that ending though?

This is what I hate about Coachella and all music festivals and all youth especially youth in America and abroad.  Put your clothes on, stop being an idiot, stop doing drugs, stop yelling at cops who are just doing their job (something you, one day, will have to have…even if you went to “art” “school”), stop watching paul mccartney (whom you’ve never cared about before), stop dancing, stop going out, stop having fun.  Buckle down, buckle up, go for a little test drive called responsibility.
