2,088 voices.
Aaron Koblin made 2,088 people sing various sounds without telling them what it was for.
The result is brilliant.
Amazing.
Chase and Status.
Just listening to the Hospital Records 100th podcast and it reminded of Chase and Status, i hadn't seen the video to the track.
Great tune, great video.
Speaking of good old tunes.
Escape From Tomorrow.
Nice little film called 'Escape From Tomorrow'.
A day in the life of BMXer Nigel Sylvester.
Well edited.

November 28th.
Buy nothing day.
Stop and think, do you need it? really? honestly? can't it wait for tomorrow? you greedy person, consuming, hording. Stop and think!
Well done Buy nothing day.
Minotaur Shock.
Awesome!
Minotaur Shock has released a new album and he wants you to pay for each track relevant to how difficult it was to make and how many musicians were used to create it.
Brilliant honesty! If a track was simple to create, just pressing a few buttons, it's cheap. If it was difficult to make, involved an orchestra, some singers, difficult to find instruments, you pay more.
Totally brilliant idea.
I am slightly dissapointed that it is on Spotify as i am sitting here lsitening to it for free, so the lovely idea kind of breaks....anyway.
Can't wait for track 11 mind, 77p's worth of magic, most pricey tune on the album.
McCain Good Unlimited.
Nice little ad from McCain.
It appears to beg, borrow and steal from Coke ads, but, hey, everyones a thief.
I love the little hug at 32 seconds.
Nice
Thanks Charlie Man.
Joy sticks!
If you are a regular reader you will know i have a bit of a thing for Tim Exile, especially when he is getting old computer peripherals involved.
He is the new Jean Michel Jarre.

Barcode Battlers.
I have had an idea.
Bring back Barcode Battler that the kids play as you tour the Supermarket.
Simply put you create an app that works out scores based on barcodes. So each product has it's own score. You then pit 2 products against each other.
So, as you shop so the kids play.
Frosties v Coco Pops!
Robinsons Squash v Ribenna!
Healthy v Un-healthy!
It could even become educational.
Could be an ace thing to keep the kids busy as you shop. A good reason to go to the supermarket.
Anyone want it? Anyone work for a supermarket?
Adidas Stormtrooper.
Adidas Originals have teamed up with Star Wars to make some well posh trainers and ting..
I will be get me some stromtrooper trainers i can tell you now!

Modern Warfare 2 hurts boy.
You see, they were right, Modern Warfare 2 is bad.
The airport scene should be the least of their worries when there are chaps like this around.
Maritime dominance.
This is a lovely little video that shows the evolution of the top 4 maritime empires from 1800 to today.
It demonstrates how they grew and declined as they sailed for and fought with different nations.
Lovely.
Saving Grace.
Grace is the first street legal e-motorbike, whatever that is.
It looks lush.
E-motorbikes rock, again, whatever they are.

Leica x Hermes M7.
Hermes and Leica have come together to make this little beauty.
Ain't she rad, i'd expect rad for $14,000.

Yahoo! Creatives.
Still harping on about what creatives wear.
If this had been created 2 years ago it would still feel 5 years out of date.
Oh dear.

Flaming belt.
Who wouldn't want a belt with a lighter in?
I bet Guy Fawkes wishes he had had one.
'Now, where did i put them matches, hmmm?'
'Bugger, the rozzas, scarpa!'

Friend-O-Meter.
Nice little quiz for Orange that uses Facebook, Twitter and MySpace, although i think Motorola paid for it.
Although, it goes some way to demonstrating that my Facebook friends are people i don't know much about, i would imagine the same can be said for alot of other peoples Facebook pals?
Anyway, good work Fallon.
Tree house.
Dear Santa,
I know it's early and that, but please can you get me one of these for Christmas please.
Thanks very much.
Oh, by the way, these people are pretty clever, you might want to get in touch with them, bet they could 'spruce' up your gaff in Lapland, or have you moved to Reading, thought i saw you there last week?
Kindest
Richard.
Modern Warfare 3!
Who'd have thought it, Modern Warfare 2 only just out and already talk of 3!
Super duper.

40th.
Slowly starting to release more stuff about The 40th Day, looks pretty sweet.
Infact, this blog seems to be concentrating alot on games recently.
I am Patrick Moore. (5.30min. Double lush!)
Herne the Hunter.
Nothing to see here, just reminiscing.
I can well imagine i had nightmares due to these credits.
'Kay, come into my wild woods with me'.
Frankie says cash in.
Have you seen, Frankie Goes To Hollywood have released their 4th Greatest Hits.
Don't get me wrong, i was and am a fan of Frankie, but 4 greatest hits, especially when they only actually released 2 studio albums, seems rather unnecessary. Oh yes, they have also got 4 mix albums.
I wonder who has released the most albums with the least amount of studio tracks to play with? Frankie must be close.
Anyway, off i go.

Bad Company.
I know full well that Modern Warfare 2 is going to rock, but Battlefield: Bad Company 2 looks pretty damn spanking.
Fight fight fight.
Block rocking.
James pointed me to the above.
If you like the above, then get here now!
Then once you have been bitten by that, get here, proper dope awesome double lush tone matrix.
Thanks Master Tindall, smashing.
£1,000,000.00.
Ready, Able.
Well lush Grizzly Bear's video for Ready, Able.
Well done GB, well done AS.
Sorry to point it out but there is an awful continuity error. The 3 green things in the thingies hand (1.10min) start in the left hand, then close up move to the right hand. Sorry to point it out.
Lovely all the same. A beautiful inperfection.*
*I know.

Katie Stallone.
Have you noticed that Jordan, sorry, Katie, is starting to turn into Jackie.
Jordan + Katie = Jackie.
It's written in the stars.
Happens to the best of them.

Massive Attack. United Snakes.
Pretty sweet new Massive Attack tune, i like it, but not that progressive really, nice and dark mind.
Boss.
Guinness. Bring it to life.
This is the new Guinness ad that breaks tonight, i'm not sure about it myself.
Not sure what it is saying? How it is relevant to Guinness? 'Bring it to life'?
Don't get me wrong, i do like the visual, but i just don't get the 'we made the earth beautiful' part of it. Bring it to life?
Anyway, i hope i take to it.

Headphones.
I am sitting here with my little headphones in listening to John B and i was thinking to myself...
...blimey, i wish i had a pair of headphones that had the first-of-its-kind custom tuned 6mm dynamic driver which delivered striking clarity and a bass impact you can feel with siam rosewood body for unique sound and style with patented detachable cable, wireless ready with Kleer wireless system and had a custom sized flange option for unparalleled fit and comfort.
Ah, look, as luck would have it, i can get all of this with these.
Big cursor.
Artist Sebastian Campion put a big cursor in the streets of Figueres in Catalonia, it had a GPS tracker in it, you could follow its movements on Google Maps.
Not sure of the point, but like it none the less.

The Road.
I'm not sure whether i like the look of this or not.
Is it a bit Children of Men meets 2012?
I will make my mind up on viewing.
Mini Defender.
Some nice person has gone and made little models of arcade machines, how awfully thrilling.
Congrats Big J.W.
