Hot or Not Still Hot
I forgot Hot or Not. Well I didn’t forget it as such. Who could forget the hottest site of the early noughties. But at the same time I’d assumed it was pretty much stagnating in Internet history. But according to Techcrunch: HotOrNot…
Shit Disco – OK
Simple, but effective… For some reason I kept imagining an interactive version of the video that acts a bit like a Guitar Hero style game
Star Test

Download Music It’s Free
Well, sort of…
Sign on Pub Toilet Door
Made me laugh.…
Oh My, That’s Lovely
Magnetic Ink, Process video from flight404 on Vimeo. Beautiful computer generated art, made by the supremely talented Flight 404 using Processing. Personally I think the whole thing is really helped by the use of non-computer music. If you…
Loving Love
