» Fractals by on May.18, 2012

  I came across this video several years ago and just recently watched it again. I never used to give much thought to Fractals in the past. I have seen them due to my connection to the programming world. I have seen pictures of them; almost like lost relics from the tie-dye days. The Mandelbrot set being the most recognizable [...]

» The Double-Slit Experiment and Quatum Consciousness by on May.16, 2012

  The Double-Slit Experiment is interesting proof that the fact that a experiment is being observed determines the result of the experiment. That’s right… physics is proving that your observation (or better yet your existence) is a deciding factor in the behavior of the universe. But I won’t be able to explain as good as [...]

» Twangers by on May.15, 2012

I don’t even know what to say. I do know that the more I watch it the more I laugh my ass off so I figured it was worth a share. Is this for real? It looks like the words line up with the people but really half of the footage is of the dolls [...]

» Simon by on May.15, 2012

So I constantly sing this song to myself or repeat the lines from it. Anytime I hear the name Simon it goes off. Every time I see chalk I think of it. Every time I think of rockets and space… Simon is there knocking at the back of my mind along with that tune playing [...]

» Two Chatbots Arguing by on May.15, 2012

  When I first saw this, I thought it was pretty mind-blowing that two artificial intelligences would argue, lie, and then get super deep and philosophical. I thought to myself, “What does this say about humankind? Did we program them to communicate like us and therefor the conversation quickly turns argumentative? Or is it natural [...]

» Shirtless Sessions 94 – I Love Hating Trance by on May.11, 2012

OK, I’ll be one of the first to say trance sucks. But once or twice before  I’ve been caught on [more]an early morning dance floor eyes closed with a slight smile at the corners of my mouth as I let myself get carried away by some trance anthem while watching the laser light show on [...]

» Some weird old films by on May.10, 2012

  When I was little, my father would bring home a film projector from his work sometimes (we didn’t have a TV) and we’d order/rent these films. I’d watch them over and over, forwards and in reverse.     Log Driver’s Waltz: A Canadian classic… it put a smile on my face right away. And [...]

» 1978 Star Wars Cartoon from the Christmas Special by on May.10, 2012

A little painful to watch (is still by far the best part of the Christmas Special), but it’s an interesting introduction of the character Boba Fett. Well for some reason I can’t link the full holiday special so I’ll embed it just to show how awful it is.

» The Hip-Hop Conspiracy by on May.02, 2012

  Well, it wouldn’t be a “conspiracy” if it came from a legit and credible source! Here’s an anonymous letter from someone who was big in the music industry in the early 90s… (original content from www.hiphopisread.com)   “Hello, After more than 20 years, I’ve finally decided to tell the world what I witnessed in [...]

» Kimbra by on Apr.24, 2012

  Kimbra, very talented and beautiful, has a voice that demands a listening ear and her animated singing makes watching her just as enjoyable. I’ve appreciated her live recordings more than the “original” versions… here’s some of ‘em: Settle Down (Live at Sing Sing Studios):   Settle Down (Live SXSW 2012 – Spotify Sessions): (Same [...]

» The PeteBox by on Apr.22, 2012

So lately I have been looking and listening to music that is more vocal based. Through all the accapela and barbershop type stuff I figured I would give beatboxing a try. Most of it is garbage to me but this guy stands out. I think he does a great job of making good tunes through [...]

» North Wars by on Apr.16, 2012

BC-3PO… Manitoba Fett… Newfoundlando Calrissian… Alberta The Hutt … Hahaha … “It’s like Star Wars, but it Sucks!”

» War Plan Red by on Apr.16, 2012

  Did you know that the US actually had a plan to invade Canada? War Plan Red was actually a plan for war with England, but America’s first move was a pre-emptive invasion into Canada, and the plan was actually in motion. But it seemed that the Nazis started taking over the world first and [...]

» Pretty awesome video of the ocean currents of the world by on Apr.16, 2012

Download the high res one – takes a long time, but is pretty awesome http://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/vis/a000000/a003800/a003827/
