Super Slow-Motion Motion

Your first thoughts will be why are these mime artists moving so slowly, have they slipped through a temporal wormhole into another reality where time …ticks …really …slowly? But there’s reason behind their snail-like incremental movements—and it’s not just to freak stoners out. It’s so you get to watch the world whizzing past them, a [...]

“Machine Civilisation” – World Order

Guys in business suits dancing about like body-popping robots in slow-mo. That’s how you make a music video, and the guys who’ve made it have dedicated it to the grim devastation that was unleashed upon Japan a few weeks back. They talk philosophically about a dark night before the dawn or something. Let’s just hope [...]

Dogboarding

Skateboarding is so Michael J. Fox circa 1985/55. It’s all about using live animals now, so go grab your pet, rip its paws off and replace them with some gnarly Bones STFs and then take to the streets and start busting some double flip ollie wing grinders on someone’s face. You will be so street [...]

Oriental Thumbtack Russian Roulette

You know that scene in “The Deer Hunter”, the one everyone always goes on about that they copied to advertise those assorted-centre chocolates? Yeah that one. Well this is even more agonizing. Replacing bullets with the much more painful thumbtacks, it’s so intense you could cut the atmos with a sharp pin, which they kind [...]

“Friday” Interpreted by a Bad Lip Reader

And you thought you’d got away with not having to see or hear more of Rebecca Black after last week’s barrage. Well, tough luck because as it’s Friday you get to sing along, badly and out of synch, to this version which is, just like the title says, interpreted by a bad lip reader. So [...]

Dancing Ninja Assassin Prank

How would you react to something like this happening to you as your strolled down the street minding your own? Suddenly the hedge or stack of bin bags you were casually strolling past that looked so innocent and harmless come to life and start attacking you. Probably the only reason he’s avoided being shot is [...]

Nostalgia, Youth Unemployment & Wesbo!

YAY! I get to have a lightsaber fight with Ashens….But first: Technology, people think it’s doing us good. But it’s not, it’s doing us bad. Before you know it we won’t be able to take a shit without the aid of an iPhone app telling us how to squat and open our bowels. So it’s [...]

“My Favorite Color” – Kutiman

The YouTube mash-up maestro who knows how to turn a bunch of strangers who’ve uploaded performances to the site into the greatest band that never was, is back in the room with his latest effort. It’s got a soulful singer, a French horn, a saxamaphone, cello, Native American flute, but no kitchen sink. Which is [...]

World’s Greatest Extra

This ageless being, according to a legend whispered across the earth in the voice of Anthony Hopkins, has been in every film and TV show ever recorded since cavemen first filmed each over with cameras made from rocks and water. And here’s a few examples of his chubby self appearing in some popular shows and [...]

SixToes: “Low Guns” Platform

What you’re witnessing here is 7 seconds on a station platform, seen through the window of a high-speed train, in slow-motion. All those moments frozen in time, captured, unlike tear drops in the rain. Unusually a band seems to have set up camp on the platform along with masked people and a woman in her [...]

Brian Cox – Wonders Of The Stoner System

Professor Cox, renowned drug fiend explores the cosmos. How? Not because he’s a particle physicist, a Royal Society University Research Fellow and a professor at the University of Manchester. Hell no, that pales into insignificance when it comes to getting crazy on mescaline and astral projecting through space-time. Science has got nothing on psychedelics.
