Famous Photographs Meet Their Creators

The Tank Man of Tienanmen Square. Muhammad Ali standing over Sonny Liston in victory. The portrait of the Afghan Girl on the cover of National Geographic. Many of us can automatically recall these photos in our heads, but far fewer can name the photographers who took them. Even fewer know what those photographers look like.

Video Game Demake Artwork

It’s time to bring today’s modern gaming hits to the good old days – Bioshock, Deus Ex, Mass Effect, Portal, etc are all seriously beautiful games, but even when reduced to a fraction of their former pixel count by talented demake artists Pieceoftoast & JunkBoy, they still look totally awesome. I’d love to play these.

Pulp Fiction in Chronological Order

It’s one of the greatest films of the 90s, starting famously in the diner with the robbery and making its jumbled up way through a modern day L.A. meeting lowlifes, crooks, gangsters, boxers, hit men and Christopher Walken. But everybody be cool, because this is it presented in chronological order. Oh, you dig it the [...]

Davyd (A.I. Mashup)

Micro remix maven Pogo turns his adept skillage to Spielberg’s ‘AI: Artificial Intelligence’ turning the voices, chords and sound effects into a symphony of enchanting awesomeness. It’s just beautiful man. No, that’s not a tear, it’s my electrical circuitry playing up.

Tempest Milky Way

It’s…it’s beautiful man. Shot in South Dakota from June-August it shows the glorious beauty of the night sky with shooting stars, the majesty of the belt of the Milky Way, meteors reflecting on the water of a small lake. And a whole bunch of other marvellous shit that you can look at and coo over.

8 Hours in Brooklyn

If you had 8 hours in Brooklyn, what would you do? Would you jump around in some water with your top off? Roll around on the dirty floor of a derelict bus? Play some basketball? Skate? Get a tattoo? Fuck about with a fire hydrant? No? Well these guys did. And then some guy shot [...]

Magic Fabric

If you thought two pieces of fabric couldn’t be entertaining, then think again! After watching these two sheets fly about in a vortex, you’ll never get totally pissed off when making the bed ever again. When you’re caught in a flurry of cotton sheets not knowing what way’s up or down, just pretend your doing [...]

Ocean Sky

Pray, what divine celestial, oceanic beauty is this? Well, it’s the ocean and the starry sky off the Southern Ocean Coast of Australia in the tried and tested time lapse style that seems to be the default way of shooting this type of nature footage. Still, very pretty. I’d suggest a large glass of your [...]

Bass Down Low

If you want to learn something about multimedia editing, forget about wasting your time at college and learning off those so-called professors. Instead, just have a watch of this and lament how unfair it is that some people have just got raw talent for this kind of stuff. She’s still in school but has put [...]

Chick

The eternal dance between the sexes, the oldest tale in the world of boy meets girl, girl sucks boy’s eyeball, boy suffers. The allure of the femme, the duel between the two, the sucking of eyeballs, it happens the world over, every day, all day, and will continue to do so forever. Amen. And here [...]

Farm Fresh Girl

There’s nothing better than buying fresh, heading to your local farmers market and getting some lovely healthy produce, taking it home and then proceeding to rub it over your body and start getting all nasty with it, like Farm Fresh Girl does. Why just consume when you can be a food pervert? Weird.

Sub City New York

Time for a moment’s reflection. A little breather before the weekend hits and you wake up Monday, smelling of stale booze, surrounded by empty take away containers and dirty ashtrays. So, before the madness here’s a little film about emerging. Emerging from the New York subway system, out of the dark & confining underworld and [...]

Bob Dylan’s “No Direction Period” (un-cut)

Everyone remembers His Bobness’s famous hits, like “Mr Tangerine Man”, “It’s Alright Ma (It’s Just A Scratch)”, “Like A Rolling Stone”, but no one ever remembers the lesser known of his oeuvre that got ripped off by such luminaries as Sir Mix-A-Lot, the protest song singer who likes a big butt or two. And this [...]

Natalie Portman Golden Globes Laugh Loop

Here’s something to try today, take bets with your co-workers as to how long they can listen to this on repeat in a single sitting. If they go over 3 minutes then they are king/queen of the internets. This is what the Golden Globes is all about; crazy laughter, Brendan Fraser clapping like Errol Flynn’s [...]

Slowboarding

It’s longboarding but…slowed…right…down. And the result is rather entrancing, as these guys take to the streets of La Plata, Argentina showing the world that longboarding isn’t as gay as Liberace’s Christmas tree. It’s cool yeah, just as cool as skateboarding, which is pretty gay anyway. But always remember….Gay is the new ’straight’!

Giant Bubbles

OMG, those mutant bubbles, they’re attacking those poor children who’re just trying to enjoy a day out at the beach! It’s hideous. HIDEOUS! It’s going to be a massacre! Ah no. No. It all seems to be pretty relaxed, those bubbles are the kids’ friends. That’s a relief. I thought it was going to be [...]

Tempus II

Objects being shot, hit, an egg in a mousetrap, and other assorted destruction in super slow-mo. But also corks popping and raspberries dropping…in milk. It’s mesmerizing stuff, I wish the world had a super slow-mo function like you had on GoldenEye on the N64. A hot girl walks by, super slow-mo that down.
