Thank you Atomicdust for tweeting this link today.  Watching this video was inspiring and got my wheels turning.  This… is interactive.  This is something I want to do here in St. Louis.  Who’s in?

SUMMER CAMP – Round The Moon

SUMMER CAMP – Round the Moon from Paddy Power on Vimeo.

Single out 13th Sept on Moshi Moshi Records

A fellow friend and colleague of mine shared this video with me this morning.  I thought it was worth posting.  Not only is this a great song but the video will flood you with feelings of your teenage years.  Enjoy the show.

Traktor Pro & Töken Multitouch

töken experience from yöyen munchausen on Vimeo.

I must say this would have to be the coolest piece of DJ equipment.  Not only would it be fun to use but people would come out just to see you use it.  It’s a visual display with out the VJ.  I think a lot of people would pay some pretty big bucks for this setup.  As far as I know this is only a prototype and is not for sale.  I haven’t found any other information on the display.  If you find out about anything new on this please leave a comment.  It said to visit http://www.pablomartin.com/emulator/ for more info but I have yet to get the site to load. Interesting…

Update:
Looks like you can get in contact with someone about this product here: http://www.tokenexperience.com/, Thanks Yöyen.

Lagoa Multiphysics Teaser

Lagoa Multiphysics 1.0 – Teaser from Thiago Costa on Vimeo.

This is a new Multiphysics simulator by Lagoa Technologies Inc.  As far as I know this is not available yet and my not be for sometime.  As the title says, Teaser.  Hopefully its not too far off.  Either way its amazing to watch.

iPad Stop Motion Tear Down

Thought this was worth showing. Not sure I would attempt this myself but they do make it looks easy. I wonder how they get it open in the very beginning when it opens like a car hood.

“And Then There Was Salsa”

"And Then There Was Salsa"

(UPDATE: This video has been removed from Vimeo as of Jan 2011)

The reason I am not embedding this video is because you must see the original on Vimeo to get the full effect.  This video is incredible.  I don’t want to give too much away before you see it so go take a look before you read on.

The other day a friend of mine sent me a link, “check this out”.  So I followed the link expecting just another cool video or website that might get a little laugh or “that’s neat!”.  When I hit play I was still in lets just say robot mode, but then, what, wait a min what’s happening?  The video just came out of the video.  No wait what happened to Vimeo?  The entire screen was video.  Pieces of vegetables were flying across the screen and then just like that the video was over and we were back in Vimeo.  The highly creative seamless transition from a everyday video on the web to a full screen 3D craziness was like getting splashed with a bucket of ice cold water.  I will not forget this advertisement and I’ll be willing to share, blog, talk about it for a long time.  I’d love to know who did this.  If you have any idea post a comment.  I’m sure these guys worked some crazy hours to make this happen.  It might become a new standard in advertisement some day.

Red Dead Redemption

Red Dead Redemption

Roughly 2 years ago after watching 3:10 to Yuma I thought to myself, “wouldn’t a wild west game be awesome”.  No one has really made one and it would be a nice change from the aging Grand Theft Auto series. Well the other day I was browsing Rockstar Games looking to see when the next GTA release might be on its way and instead found something much more exciting.  Red Dead Redemption.  I’ll let the gameplay introduction video do all the talking.

Conclusion:
Rockstar Games has done it again and created another masterpiece.  I can’t wait to get my hands on this game.

Browsing on Facebook today I came across this video.  I am sucker for sick motion graphics/special effects like this.  I’m still trying to figure out how they did it.  Amazing!

Empire of the Sun

Empire of the Sun, two extremely creative artists from Australia with the ablum Walking on a Dream is bound to dominate on a global level.  I seriously can’t stop listening to it.  I must say these guys are amazing.  A fresh new sound like no other.  Below are a couple videos from the album Walking on a Dream.  I’d love to hear what you think of these guys. Enjoy!
