New Kelis song, Scream. Even Kelis (of my milkshake fame) is getting a bit Gaga...

The Adventures of Mark Twain

Apparently this was a kids film. Deeply strange.

This is why Swedes are awesome.

They built a 1:20 million scale model of the solar system across the country, with the sun modeled as the giant hockey stadium in stockholm.



Check it out!

Cat Trashing

Apparently some woman in London has some beef with cats. This security camera footage had no original sound, so we'll never know why. InfoMania added their take on the situation.

MGMT WTF

You've probably never seen the whole music video for MGMT's Kids before.... This is why.
The first part is ABSOLUTELY TERRIFYING and then the last part is a lovely and strange trip.

I don't know what the f is going on in this.

Justin X 8

From K.


Justin Bieber slowed down 8 times. Sounds like an epic trippy movie score. Kinda Indian sounding.

Kylie + Deadmau5 = love

Crazy Kylie

A song from my childhood

Aren't we all a pizza?

Turns out, a very good number of songs are really just the same 4 chords....




and there are actually more: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qHBVnMf2t7w&feature=related

Swedish Idol Agnes and french sexy beats

Here is a fabulously gay new-disco tune to dance to. She's a star from Sweden's version of Idol. I bet her name is pronounced An-yes in Swedish. Video is pretty normal, but I enjoy the song.




And this is somebody I hadn't heard of before. Charlotte Gainsbourg. Apparently French. Très bien.


Charlotte Gainsbourg - Trick Pony
Charlotte Gainsbourg - Voyage

A cable car ride

Take a ride on a San Francisco cable car in 1906! This 7 minute video is a super long shot for the day, with a lovely soundtrack of Air. It's so funny how people just wander the roads. A time before strict motor laws...

New cool random tunes.

I'm digging these guys. Very much TFC material.
Yeasayer - Ambling Alp
Yeasayer - O.N.E.
Yeasayer - Madder Red

Very different, but I also like this one.
Kate Nash - Skeleton Song

Remix of the above.
Chiddy Bang - Breakfast ft. Kate Nash

And some latest MGMT
MGMT - I found a whistle

I quite enjoy this new project from the lead singer of The Shins. A cool folksy meets electro-indie. Let me know if the links stop working.

Broken Bells - The Ghost Inside

Broken Bells – The High Road

Broken Bells - Vaporize

George Washington, P.I.M.P

Very amusing video about just how awesome GW was.

Most intense and amazing surfing shot ever. ever.

Hubble deep field

You've probably seen this photo before, but here is a nice high-res version to dive into! Remember, this was what they saw when they pointed hubble at an empty patch of sky the size of a tennis ball as seen from 100 meters away.

Amazing kinetic OK GO music video!

I love these things where chains of events go on and on and on in super fun ways!

NASA's Flickr Account

I don't know why it took me so long to find this. So many AWESOME pictures!! The above is from the 'blue marble' series that tried to capture the most hi-res pictures of Earth from high up by compiling many many satellite shots.

Digital Nation

PBS Frontline special about the current status of the digital age. It's all about how social networking, digital info, and constant access is changing the way humans think and behave. Very crazy and true.

Deaflympics 2009

Dance festival of deaf people in Taipei. Wow.

With Every Heartbeat

Check out this amazing song from also from Robyn. Sadly embedding disabled, so you have to go to youtube. Apparently Europeans really like to have funky haircuts and walk among geometric shapes...

Hood Internet

http://thehoodinternet.com/

I don't know who these people are, but this is an amazing remix/mashup blog. Much time can be spent here listening.

I particularly enjoy:


The Hood Internet - Ignition (Keep It Remixing Louder) (R. Kelly x Major Lazer) by hoodinternet

Paradise Circus

Great video with music from Massive Attack's Paradise Circus and video footage from The Fall, which I clearly need to see.... I have no idea what is happening.

Diggity

Cover of No Diggity by the Klaxons. Kind of amazing.
Klaxons - No Diggity (Blackstreet cover) [right click to download or play below]

Matt and Kim

I just really enjoy this song, even tho I first heard it in a commercial for Bacardi.




And here is a good remix

Jan Svankmajer

This Czech surrealist artist from the 80s does some amazing stuff. This is a stop motion clay video that is crazy interesting.




He also did one of the strangest and yet most accurate depictions of Alice in Wonderland using a little girl, taxidermied animals, and meat.

The opening scene is here:

Girl and The Robot

Excellent new song from Royskopp featuring Robyn, the Swedish pop star. Have a listen/watch:

Perfume ads

Does anybody else miss those super random perfume ads of the 90s? This one is a true gem.

TIME

We've all thought about the fate of Earth and the Sun, and maybe started to think about the fate of galaxies, but what about the fate of matter, space, and time?

Turns out that matter might all degrade in 10E100 years. A googol. Ha.

Watch this video as it takes you through the many cycles of time. Very cool.

Oh Bjork

Classic Bjork video. All is full of love. Trippy robot make-out session. Oh my.

Return to the Moon

Here is a show on Hulu that highlights some of the current and upcoming lunar missions. Very cool! 17 mins.

Pop in 2009

Here's a mashup of most of the major hits of 2009. A little Black Eyed Peas heavy, but what can you do!

See more funny videos and funny pictures at CollegeHumor.

They did it!

They just had the opening ceremonies for the Burj Dubai, now called the Burj Khalifa. They had fireworks like crazy. Watch this video from Reuters of the ceremonies (remember that this building is 2 times the size of the empire state building. Like nearly 160 floors.

Harbin Ice Festival

Every winter, the city of Harbin in Northern China hosts an ice festival, where over 10,000 people gather to carve and stack ice into an enormous lit city. Amazing!
