Typographic Synthesizer – So Good It’s Magic!
You know sometimes when you see something so amazing that you almost forget to breathe while you’re looking at it. Well I’m just about finished hyperventilating after the end of this video. The guys at Meek.fm have created something that…
That’s a Mermaid?
It’s amazing what YouTube throws up in it’s ‘related videos’ section: For me, that’s not a mermaid. This is a mermaid: I’d have loved to see Tom Hanks fall in love with the top one though.
Pre-YouTube Silly Moments In Techno
I should probably start a separate category in the blog for this stuff. It just seems to keep on coming… I loved this clip for a couple of reasons. Firstly, it’s a bunch of cheeky young ravers from Edinburgh. I would have been living there…
Commit No Nuisance
Could be a new motto for life.…
Spamsoup

Facebook Add To Friends QR Code
This is bloody great. Facebook app + QR code. Sounds like someone playing ‘cool shit mashup’. But here something’s been made that is much greater than the sum of its parts. It’s really simple. You add the Facebook app. Click ‘make my…
Employment Exchanges
I was watching Control the other night (which I thoroughly enjoyed) and Ian Curtis works in the Employment Exchange. I don’t know why, but I really liked the term Employment Exchange. It just sounds so much more two-sided than ‘Job…
Awesome Elvis Dancing in The Park
Another bit of creative dance from elsewhere in the world… Thanks to Mr Polaine for the link – genius.
The Art of Sneaker Cleaning and Sneaker Cleaning Products
I’ve veered into silliness with trainers a few times, going out of my way to find them, spending too much money on them and hoarding them badly. I’ve always known that I wasn’t a real sneakerhead though. And I had that confirmed to me when…
