Brilliant new ad for Toshiba by The Mill

It looks like multiple passes with a bullet-time camera setup. But really, I don’t care much for the tech they’re promoting; it’s just plain cool.

Remote Controlled HOVERING SPACE SURFER!!! omg omg omg omg omg

•November 25, 2008 • Leave a Comment

This is the remote controlled 9″ space surfer that hovers in the air, spins 360°, and moves left, right, forward, and backward–all while levitating parallel to the ground. Capable of indoor or outdoor flights, the space surfer has dual propellers that generate enough thrust to send the device from a stationary position to 66-feet in the air without requiring a hand-launch. The radio frequency remote control has proportional throttle and trim settings that allow it to be precisely controlled through climbs, descents, and turns. Made from durable EPP foam, the aircraft’s body withstands turbulent flights and crash landings.  Remote has a 27′ range and requires a 9-volt battery. Operates for 15 minutes after a 70-minute charge.

OMG OMG OMG
Anything with the word Space, i’m pretty much down with.

Have A Nice Day

•November 23, 2008 • Leave a Comment

A new video, directed by [a very pregnant] M.I.A. and featuring Blaqstarr mashup/covering Tom Waits’ “Way Down In The Hole,” which various artists have covered as the theme song for HBO’s “The Wire,” with M.I.A. crooning about her laptop. On the video’s lo-fi look, from the YouTube credits: “cheapest video ever made , I spent $9.95 on it.”

M.I.A. feat. Blaqstarr – Way Down In The Hole

Me and Blaqstarr found the image at the end from a Joy Division video and thought about the election and thats how people want you to see the world , black/ white , good/ evil, jesus/devil for you the words are Obama vs Mc Cain for me its terror vs genocide simple maths so we put it on at the end to show how far we’ve gone and how far we’ve come, i have to start staying at home more because i dont think i can fit through my front door anymore but i want this to do the traveling for me.

What you are seeing is a real live demonstration of our physics based engine responding to it’s real life surroundings, the computer sees and recognises the black shapes on the whiteboard and the virtual ball behaves accordingly.

4 things: Shorter paddles, faster speed, Paddles MUST be in a vertical path and sides should be totally open. Other than that, what an Awesome concept. PONG!!!

The REAL BIKE HERO

“What’s up, viral marketing douchebags?”

YouTube video response to Activision’s viral marketing Bike Hero.

“Bike Hero On Expert” shows the brand managers at Droga 5 how it’s done on the streets. Self described PRO GAMER Freddie Wong plays Dragonforce’s “Through the Fire and the Flames” on expert while riding a bike while wearing a metallic foil button-up.

Well, Activision, how does it feel?

That dude is now probably going to get hired to make viral videos.

No Doubt Return!

•November 23, 2008 • Leave a Comment

MUSIC BUZZ: No Doubt has updated their official website with a little iChat animation simulating a conversation between the band — and for those of you who don’t feel like reading it — basically it says, they are coming back!

tumblr_m9oupjamac1qdfkh1o1_500

Here are a few awesome No Doubt tracks you have probably no doubt heard before:

Just A Girl:

No Doubt had phenomenal success with their follow up single “Just A Girl”, reaching #23 on the US Hot 100 and #3 on the Australian Charts.

This was the first single from the album “Tragic Kingdom”, An album that reached #1 virtually everywhere and was certified Diamond.

Trapped In A Box:

“Trapped In A Box” is No Doubt’s first ever single, but unfortunately received no airplay on either the radio, or TV.

It is however, great to see where they came from and how far they’ve come.

Don’t Speak:

Don’t Speak, the song that pretty much made No Doubt a household name and arguably the band’s most famous song. The song went #1 everywhere and was also nominated for a Grammy.

Spiderwebs:

Spiderwebs, a song about an unrelenting man calling a girl, reached #18 on the US 100, #16 in the UK, and #46 in Australia.

Hella Good:

Hella Good, the second single off the album “Rock Steady”. It peaked at #13 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, #25 in Canada and it’s highest in Australia, at #8.

Simple Kind of Life:

Simple kind of life was the 3rd single from Return of Saturn. While it was the only release from this album that made it into the US Billboard Charts [#38], it didn’t do as well as previous releases overseas, reaching only #94 in Australia and #69 in the UK.

Still, for a song that was composed and recorded within a week, with no practice sessions, it is a great addition to an awesome album.

New:

The first single from their new album “Return of Saturn”, “New” was also featured in the movie “GO”.

Reached #7 on the modern rock chart in the US and #30 in the UK.

Bathwater:

Bathwater didn’t do to well in the charts, only hitting #79 in Australia, and #39 on the Adult Billboard charts. However, on the re-release in 2004 to correspond with their “best of” album, it reached #17 in the UK.

Bathwater was written in 10 minutes and it’s a song about accepting your lovers faults. The video features the Pussycat Dolls. The burlesque group, not the pop group.

Sunday Morning:

Sunday Morning was composed by Kanal, but Gwen then changed the lyrics to reflect on her relationship with him.

Excuse Me Mr.:

“Excuse Me Mr.” is the fourth single by rock band No Doubt from the album Tragic Kingdom. The music video was directed by Sophie Muller.

Ex-Girlfriend:

Ex-Girlfriend was orignally a slow song, but was sped up because they already had enough “slow songs” on the Album.

Written about Gwen’s relationship with Gavin Rossdale, her then boyfriend, now husband.

It’s My Life:

A cover version of “It’s My Life” (1984) by British synthpop band ‘Talk Talk,’ and it’s pretty good.

Underneath It All ft. Lady Saw:

The song features reggae production and guest vocals from deejay Lady Saw and won a Grammy Award for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal at the 46th Grammy Awards.

So, have I made you a fan? Be honest now 😛

Two Face Kitty

•November 23, 2008 • Leave a Comment

A kitten was born in Australia on Wednesday with two faces.

It’s kind-of cute in a weird mutated kind of way and made me wish all pets had more faces. But then I realized how expensive it would be to feed all those extra faces, and decided it wasn’t so awesome afer all.

The kitten ate out of just one mouth because of a cleft plate but both mouths meowed simultaneously.

The two-faced feline was one of three in a litter and appears to be doing well. It hasn’t got a name yet, but the owner is thinking of calling it Mr Men or Quasi Modo.

Yeah, Quasi Modo, that won’t fuck it up for life. You might as well saw off a couple legs and name it Cripples.

Proof Of The Coming Apocalypse?

UPDATE: The rare two-faced kitten born in Midvale on Wednesday, which captured the world’s attention, has died.

The Kitten, which was being kept at its owners home with its mother and two siblings, died late yesterday after getting fluid in its lungs.
