Fuck you, we won't do what you tell us.


So Killing In The Name has been released as a protest to Cowell, the X Factor and manufactured music.

BBC 5 thought it would be a really good idea to talk to the band live at 9 in the morning before listening to the song.

What the hell were they thinking?

A brilliant piece of Radio that will of course go down in history and demonstrates the awful naivety of the BBC.

Oh dear oh dear oh dear.

Thank you Zack de la Rocha, Tom Morello, Tim Commerford, Brad Wilk and of course the BBC, i'm glad you didn't do what they told you.

The Known Universe.


This is a short film created by The American Museum of Natural History plotting everything they know about the universe.

Apparently is zooms out 13.7 billion light years!

Back off Hawking, these people know way more than you.

Intel Cannonbells.


Yes, we know it is fake, but it is still pretty nice.

Ah, and speaking of fake, just listening to Boyle again, it is rather good.

Marvelous.

Play the mobiles.


Apparently this is live in LBi's reception.

You can play it here.

They should have made the keys light up so you can simply follow and play songs, instead you just end up trying to annoy them.

Anyone good with code and can make it play horrid things all day long?

Naughty Richard!

O Mob.


I have only just seen this.

How wonderful it is.

Thank you Oprah Windy.

The 12 Bells.


This is a very very sad week, for The 12 Bells in Cirencester closed.

For years it has been my favourite pub.

For years Bob has served brilliant food and beer.

For years girls asking for shorts were frowned upon.

For years it has been Gloucestershires pub of the year.

And now, it has gone.

Whilst millions and millions of pounds are wasted by the Government, instituations like this die. It just isn't right. It just isn't fair.

So many stories of brilliant nights, days.

Thank you Bob, thank you The 12 Bells, you made my life better.

Google Chrome.


A magical film for Google Chrome features.

Well done BBH Labs, amazingly creative.

Stealth Switch.


Super idea.

A USB based switch that sits under your desk and brings up work related things when someone of authority walks by.

Well done.

Tracka.


Ace thing from Poke.

Imagine if it were real.

Decode.


Decode is an exhibition running and the V&A.

'Decode is a collaboration between the V&A and onedotzero, a contemporary arts organisation operating internationally with a remit to promote innovation across all forms of moving image and interactive arts'.

Could be good.

Spag bog.


I had never seen this until about 3 minutes ago.

What a wonderful thing.

A Parallel Image.


Gebhard Sengmüller created a electronic camera obscura.

I love the lo-fi feel to it.

Flippin lush.

Brink.


Brink looks proper good.

Love the SMART feature.

Paranormal Activity.


I went to see her last night, she was good.

Worth seeing in a dark cinema to experience the full force.

Some proper chilling moments, moments that made the entire cinema scream. Every time you cut to the above view you were waiting for evil to appear, (notice shadow on the door) so it was all rather nail biting.

Slightly disappointed by the ending, but all rather pleasing.

Smashing.

Röyksopp ft. Robyn.


Can't stop listening to this.

Amazing tune.

Xbox v Laptop

Girlfriend did this...
...so boyfriend does this...

If this is real it really could get very out of hand.

OP-1.


A lovely little controller for any sequencer you might wish to control.

I might buy one just because it looks super nice.

Well done Teenage Engineering.

Bapesta URSUS.


The search has been long and hard, but it is over.

For the last 3 months i have been trying to find a lush pair of trainers.

Looked all over, and finally it is over.

The Bapesta Ursus has been purchased.

They are flippin lush!

Cardon Copy


Cardon Webb goes around New York finding hand scribbled, badly crafted posters, then turns them into far more beautiful things.

Lovely, although, i think the hand scribbled notes stand out far more, far more personal.

Perhaps design is not required here.

Anyway, nice one Carbon, if indeed that is yo name.

Brighten the corners.


Just been admiring the work of Brighten the corners, lovely, simple, stylish work.

And then i purchased a set of these posters. Wonderful, and only a ten spot.

You have brightened my corners.

Wizard Smoke.


Not sure what it was for, but a nice little film from Salazar Productions.

Smashing.

Mini Hulk.


Tilt shift Hogan.

Move to 1.08 to see him enter the ring.

Rather good.
