Wednesday, November 12th, 2008

An great show of editing skills and foresight at how good preaching crowds would look at a massiff drum n’ bass gig. Nuff said, watch it yo.

UNIBOOTY

Friday, October 17th, 2008

An interesting look into the way that the new Mac Books have their casing machined from one piece of solid aluminium. Mac artfully calls it the “Precision aluminium unibody enclosure”. The short video features the annoyingly slick Mac designers harping on about a piece of metal getting shaped. An interesting little watch none the less.

INTERDOOF DESIGN

Tuesday, September 30th, 2008

An interesting video with DJ Richie Hawtin discussing the intricacies of how he configures and utilises the dynamic functional ability of his preferred digital DJing setup. Not sure if Allen & Heath are sponsoring this video but it presents some fantastic insights into how this DJ considers his compositions and uses the clever user interface design of Apple’s own Traktor DJ Studio. Some DJ purists may choose to avoid this video as automatic beat matching is heavily utilised in this demonstration. Richie puts forward a very strong argument as to why a self confessed vinyl junkie is now an auto beat sync loyalist.

BIG BLUE, I NEVER KNEW

Tuesday, September 23rd, 2008

The only problem with the TED talks is that there is so many inspirational ideas and discussions caught on film that it is difficult to decide what or who to watch first. I’ll help you out. Watch this interesting presentation about how much or more rightly, how little we know about the World’s oceans.

Fact: The current annual NASA Space Program budget could fund the current budget for the American NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) Ocean Exploration program for 1600 years. Why are we looking up and not down?
