REMIX

Radiohead, in their infinite genius, set up sites that allow you to get the basic tracks for their songs for free, and then you can remix them as you please. Then listeners can vote on the best ones. Here is the link to the site for remixing Reckoner. There is also one for Nude.

I like what Mike Genius Rubber did for Reckoner. Took it to a whole new place.

A New Kind of Cloud

http://files.abovetopsecret.com/images/member/9fba6a2ffd74.jpg


This year, sky-gazers have noted a kind of cloud previously unsubscribed in Cloud Atlases. It is being considered as a new entry in the list of types of clouds observed around the planet. It is known as Undulatus Asperatus, because of its wavy form. It's basically a layer formed between warmer/cooler and drier/wetter air. Craazy!

PEPCON EXPLOSION


Amazing explosion caught on film. In 1988 a facility holding a lot of jet fuel exploded and was caught on film. Read about it here:


and watch the explosion here:


Of course no explosion will ever be as big as the Tsar Bomb which happened here and more can be read here.

The future is now!


Details are coming out about a dual screen computer from Microsoft that will act like a super fancy planner, with wireless capabilities, a camera, touch screens, and writing recognition software. The concept video is kind of amazing.

We Are Electric


I'm not quite sure what to make of this. But it sure is trippy in good Fischerspooner style. Enjoy this music video. Especially in HD.

Boohbah!



Enjoy this website intended for toddlers. Perfect place for those in altered states to play.

TED



HOURS could be spent perusing the many lectures on TED, one of the most diverse and intellectually stimulating conference series I know of. This one I found particularly interesting, because it marries my loves (neuroscience & nirvana).

I don't know what drugs she's on, but I want some. Look at this video.

Old Ironsides


So. Some things last for a long time. Some of these things played major roles in history. One such thing is the USS Constitution, a boat built in 1797, which still sails around the US as like a living museum. This ship was critical in the war of 1812. Amazing that it's still going. Think of all the people who have been on board this boat. Read lots more here: USS Constitution

An idea

Check out these sites, links, videos, songs, stories after having some waffles. And enjoy.
