True Grit

This new Coen Brother's film looks amazing, more like No Country For Old Men than A Serious Man. Enjoy

Wes Anderson Short Story

Published recently by the University of Texas Press this short story is from Wes Anderson, from his college years at UT in 1989. Sorry about the format but it was only available in photo from. As you may know if you read this blog, I'm a huge fan of Anderson's and one of the many people who could watch him read a book or listen to him fart in a paper bag and find it genius. Hopefully you'll enjoy it as much as I did. Here's the link or read below. Enjoy

I would listen to her read a book, she can do no wrong in my eyes...

HTML5




This is the only thing I've seen in awhile that's cool than the ipad, this is a new interactive music video from acclaimed music video director, Chris Milk, that showcases google chrome and YOUR childhood address, all while listening to a track from the great, new Arcade Fire record. The google chrome browser is a free download that is completely customizable and easy to use. Any browser will work for this interactive video but only google chrome supports all the fun tid bits that this video is capable of showing. I have know idea about internet code but it's html5, which is the future of browsing that will replace flash.

Check out this link, plug in your address, and watch this amazing video: a few windows pop up, but don't worry, it's supposed to look like this. Enjoy

Here is my video of my old neighborhood when I lived in L.A. and some links to all this rad technology.

Is anyone else tired of Eminem?

He's talented and his new album is decent, a lot better than the crap he put out on the last record, but I'm tired...To be honest I'm surprised he even made a comeback, but I guess all the Bieber fever kids need to listen to a little anger and strife? Artists like Eminem always do well when pop music turns really bubble gum, he first emerged during the whole boy band era, so why not do it all over again for the new generation of teens who were to young to remember the real slim shady. He has nothing left to say, everything sounds the same except for maybe the people he collaborates with, and how many times can he do the angry white dude "i got picked on in high school" bit. He's rich and apparently clean, maybe there's no inspiration left, nothing to feed the creativity, I'm not sure...Enjoy?
