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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

  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 [...]

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.

  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 [...]

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 [...]

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

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