PaperTab: Revolutionary Paper Tablet

You can keep your iPads and Galaxys, this is the tablet of the future. It’s a tablet (or many tablets) that are as thin and flexible as paper, so you can use lots of them together to link the screens and you bend the tablet to interact with the information displayed on the device. Sure, [...]

The Mixtape

New Changes to YouTube COMING SOON (Feb 2013)

Brilliant. These are the changes every YouTuber has been waiting for — instead of having to laboriously type out your intelligent, well-crafted, perfectly punctuated comments you can choose a comment from a drop down menu — all the faves are there — then just double click and you’re away. Incredible. And that’s just the beginning, [...]

Dizzee Rascal – Bassline Junkie

This is how you deliver a responsible message to the kids, using foul-mouthed language to get it across to them. That way in amongst the expletives they’ll get the anti-drugs message that basslines are so much more rad than lines of ket.

When Carl Sagan saw the image from the Voyager 1 space probe, the shot that shows the earth at it’s most distant we’ve ever seen in a photograph, he went off on one in a monologue about this place we call home – and the rest is history. This video is a visual response to [...]

BMX 16ft Full Pipe Loop

Holy 16 foot full pipe loop Batman! Red Bull continue their complete domination, I mean sponsorship, of all extreme sports by letting BMXers ride through a tunnel and do jaw-dropping stunts like riding standing on the handle bars in a very dangerous don’t-try-this-at-home-or-if-you-do-at-least-have-the-decency-to-film-it-so-we-can-all-laugh-at-you-injuring-yourself way. Epic stuff though.

DUB FX – I Never Made It

This looks like a good gang to be in, lots of hot girls who like nothing more than carving a newbie into the mountainside on their boards. And there’s not a blonde-haired gnarly dude in sight. There needs to be many more videos like this where girls are doing the extreme sports rather than guys. [...]

Fruit Ninja in Real Life to Dubstep!

A tub of lard becomes a real life fruit ninja, all set to a dubstep soundtrack, in this video. Who says dreams can’t come true? Just look at this fatty, one minute he’s sitting on the couch gasping for life as he gobbles down another Baconator, the next he’s on the internet chopping up flying [...]

Fireworks In Reverse [NYE 2012 Melbourne]

Everyone loves fireworks, especially around New Year. But it’s not often you see them going backwards, that would defy all known laws of physics and you’d have to be some kind of lord of all space/time to make it happen in the physical world. So step forward the medium of film to make all our [...]
