a colour box_len lye

Mesmerized by this short by Len Lye currently at the MOMA.  The film was made without a camera.  Lye painted and stenciled straight on celluloid which he then ran through a projector.  Loving how dynamic the colors and shapes are.

marcel the shell

This is seriously soo funny.  I’m pretty sure i watched it atleast 20 times already.  Best video ever.

My fave lines:

“my name is marcel and i’m partially a shell”
“one time i nibbled on a piece of cheese and my cholesterol went to 900”
“guess what i do for adventure? i hangglide with a dorito”
“one time i looked at a diamond and it gave me a sunburn”
“well you know what they say, lint is a shell’s best friend”
“come here, come here, commmme heeerrree….errr….ILOVE YOU…come heere ah”

secret ingredient

Hilarious if you are a fan of the show.  When “honey” and “beer” come up it’s pretty funny.

dancing elves update

Thought of these elves randomly when I was looking down at Union Square today and decided to figure out why they were here back then. (pic is from the earlier post I had on the dancing elves to jog your memories).  I had heard a rumor that it was for an Office Max commercial at that time, but never saw them on TV or anything.  Turns out it was for Office Max and the promotion of the website, Elfyourself.com.  The video of the routine is above.

Too funny…haha…props to whoever it was for organizing that many people in elf suits and getting them to dance at the same time!

LOLrio KART

Now I can race like in Mario Kart!!  This video is so cool.  MIT students built the LOLrio KART out of a shopping cart with upgraded wheels, NiCd aircraft batteries, and a 15hp brushless motor.  It can reach up to speeds of 45 mph!  Where can I get mine so I can start racing?

“hoedown” from rodeo suite (animation)

Stop motion animation with classical music score, “Hoedown”, from “Rodeo Suite” by composer, Aaron Copland.  The video was made by Eleanor Stewart.  It’s a pretty cool stop motion.  Love how the characters come out of the sheet music.  Most of you will recognize the music once you get a little ways into.  Very fun!!
