Major Lazer ‘Hold The Line’ (via A3MusicVideos) is nominated for a breakthrough video award on one of those MTV award shows. I love the animation that recalls GI Joe and He-Man.

so apparently Butterscotch is well known for having appeared on America’s Got Talent and performing at Coachella in 2007 (that’s where this video is from) - but I just heard of her this morning thanks to @chrisbrogan putting a track from the Henry Rollins show in his twitter stream that featured Mike Patton and Butterscotch.

Peter Root

Staples and mirror
180x80cm

Low-Rise is a precarious assemblage of thousands of free-standing stacks of staples densely tessellated to create a city-like mosaic. Like a city, the staples are subject to the elements, on a micro scale. The slightest breath or vibration and the domino effect kicks in.

personal technology today rules!

VR-3000 Portable Quadruplex VTR by Ampex
1967

Part proton pack, part camera, part back injury. The VR-3000 was the first ever “portable” VHS camcorder. Holy shit and now we have phones that can do this and fit in our wee little pockets. It’s ridiculous how far technology has come. Ridiculous, I say.

“[redacted] has gained a few pounds in the dome from learning too much. anybody who wants to get their retard on meet me tonight halfway across the brooklyn bridge at midnight. i got a handle of evan williams, fireworks, rollerblades, leg warmers, a length of rope, ski masks and a bicycle built for 2 with a sidecar.” I wonder how things went. Didn’t post this yesterday so as to keep from tipping off the authorities.

dad and baby look overjoyed, but mom looks like she’s hoping the photographer will read the note she’s furtively scrawled on the photo order form.

Ludicra - One Thousand Wolves

Is Ludicra the feminine declension of the nominative adjective Ludicrus? And if so, are these metal people making fun of Ludacris for his misspelling? Finally, how lame am I to be making Latin jokes about a metal band and a rapper?

work, eating and shitting

“I feel like we’re always so busy reading about bold new technological innovations that we forget that we are the socially elite members of society, and believe it or not, we are a minority. Real people can’t find entertainment in things like twitter because their lives’ are boring and they haven’t reached a respectable level of self-awareness. They just see life as a trivial routine of going to work, eating, and shitting. Why would they value social networks or memes if they are basically living a dumb life with no desire for a ‘creative outlet’ where ‘a tribe’ is able to keep up with u? Real people ‘know better’ and don’t try to cultivate value from feeling close to people on the internet, and they just try to find simple pleasures and stay happy+unhealthy.”

- Carles pontificates on whether technology will save the economy

srsly yall, the paragraph ending in “execute simple ideas” is also gold. sometimes carles lets his intellect come out in his analysis, and these are the posts I love best.

Like I was saying below, I don’t want to see the underneathy stuff.

“Everything we see hides another thing, we always want to see what is hidden by what we see.”

- René Magritte

Magritte was deep. But when I finally see naked boob, I don’t want to see the underneathy stuff. So I’m not sure he’s right in this case.
