Trying to raise awareness for Dean Hsieh's latest comic (he formerly of KittyBoo superstars Poopiehead, as well as a crazy talented comic artist) Aeon of the Dead. It's entered into a competition at DC Comics site Zuba — login and vote/favorite! It's good gory zombie stuff!

Amazing, and do sort of want for Christmas.

Oh man, I'll take that bear! Also, seriously, can someone in SanFran head down to the show on the fourth [http://www.definitivejux.net/news/aesop-rock/837] and get me one of the wood plank prints/USB drives? I can paypal dolla$!

Nadine Grenier, a student at ESAD Strasbourg, made this kinetic installation called “O’clock”. It is made with 500 clocksworks and every 12 hours you can read this sentence: “le temps passe, et chaque fois qu’il y a du temps passe, il y a quelque chose qui s’efface”. This is a quote from Jules Romains, a French poet, which roughly translates in “Time passes, and every time the time passes, there is something that fades”.

Trailer for 2009 movie based on those infamous leaked AOL search queries: "I love Alaska tells the story of one of those AOL users. We get to know a religious middle-aged woman from Houston, Texas, who spends her days at home behind her TV and computer. Her unique style of phrasing combined with her putting her ideas, convictions and obsessions into AOL's search engine, turn her personal story into a disconcerting novel of sorts."

I'm pretty convinced, especially after this, that all cartoons need to revert to the rhythmic wiggly-world deal.

Really, really good Marmite snacks campaign up at the top there.

Nearly a month old now, so you've probably seen it, just officially announcing that this is all I am going to listen to today on repeat.

Secrets!

My favorite part of Julian is how he sees his saws as personified little beings. I'll bet, in that case, mine's real mad at me for letting it go all rusty. Also: awesome video alert at the end.

Low kick off the holidays a little early with a vaguely terrifying dirge.

I’m thinking somebody likes Animal Collecti– oh wait, I know he does, he did the Water Curses fan-vid I linked a bit back (http://vimeo.com/1926890). Good stuff!

There is almost nothing about this video that isn’t amazing, from the dj-naut to the visualizations to the goosebump-inducing anticipation of little Lumi (the first baby born in outer space, goes the story, who’s never been to earth and instead beams her teen j-pop disco compositions back from 30 years in the future) first appearing on the LED monolith. From the people who brought you Rez, Lumines and Meteos!

Oh dear, I like this. Watch online for a fiver, which you can then apply toward the DVD. Can someone make it show up on my 360/PS3 please?

Today we're going to be horrible to d-d-d-d-ogs. 3:30 remix of the Chris Morris short.
-
Hey weird, it was me, and I was live on national radio. With Ron Kuby of Big Lebowski fame! I mean, and 40 years of civil rights activism. Man!

Submitted for later, further reading: a super in-depth feature on Lynch, particularly (from what I have skimmed) "folding" of not just time and space, but characters themselves (super prevalent if you've watched the whole oeuvre, of course).
-
Feist's angelic hold music.

Good performance, stellar strings, and coming on the release of the new single with the even excellenter Chromeo remix b-side.

"Written by Norton Juster based on his own story, The Dot and the Line tells of a line who falls in love with a bouncy, lively dot. It may seem strange that a relatively representational illustrator/animator like Jones would turn to abstract forms to tell a story, but what could be more natural to him that paying homage to the building blocks of his profession and when better than during the explosion of pop and op art of the 1960s. But what about the subtitle, 'A Romance in Lower Mathematics?'"

Basically all I've listened to for the past 24 hours.

Just the in-between parts.

Little bit amazing: "This Zoetrope was produced by the artists at Pixar to coincide with a show at the Museum of Modern Art and is currently on display at the Disney California Adventure hotel. Hundreds of little models are placed on a spinning platform and when it rotates you get Pixar animation in 'real' 3D."

Oh, yes, I want one of these. Can someone get one for me?
-
Awesome 6-degrees book idea — six double-page spreads that will be filled out, then passed to the most famous person that contributor knows, with the results getting charity auctioned for Xmas. Really curious to see whose hands this eventually lands in (and where it starts, actually).
-
God dammit I'm really trying to avoid buying this but it looks ridiculously necessary.

Giant Robot puts up a buncha Kochalka videos (interviews and music) following his GR2 LA art show. I bought the Glorkian painting over the internets!

A focus on the True Blood opening titles, which honestly may be the best part of the show. I look forward to it every week.

Woke up with this song in my head (and a devious pain in my jaw that I hope doesn't develop into something) and this is what the internet rewarded me with. Is it wrong that I like this about 300x more than Weezer's own high-budget meme-a-licious video? The Where's Waldo one made me 'lol' a little.

Ah, in a funny way it still feels like "home."

Oh weird a golden wolf head on the end of a mic–…… mmm.. I… uh… what was I saying again?

The Harrington hits just keep on coming. I don't understand, is there hope?
