Spintown News: I actually posted the IP2 (Real Video Mix) around 2AM yesterday. I had computer problems halfway through the editing process, so it looks rough. You can see where I first had the problem, because halfway through the video the colors get wonky. I didn't notice that until it was ready for upload though (I'm actually color blind). I'll touch it up at a later date. YouTube gave me problems trying to upload the video as well, or it would have been up sooner. I think it took like 6-7 tries...I lost count. In short, this video has been a pain in the ars.

"I think I may have killed a ladybug while mowing the lawn."
"Whoever writes the best song about my previous tweet will receive a free copy of 'Songs Grandma Won't Like' when it is released."
It would be cool if someone took on that challenge and ran with it. You can find Mike at the TMA website (link in sidebar), or tweet him @mikelombardo.

Humanthesizer "Calvin Harris performs a version of his new single Ready For The Weekend on a unique human synthesiser. The instrument employs 15 bikini clad models painted with Bare Conductive, a new skin safe ink which conducts electricity. When the performers touch the connection completes a circuit, triggering a sound.
The instrument consists of 34 pads on the floor which have been painted with the conductive ink and connected to a computer via some clever custom electronics. The performers stand on the pads, and touch hands to complete a circuit and trigger a sound. Different combinations of pads trigger the different sounds needed to play the track.
The project is the result of a collaboration between Calvin Harris and masters students from the Royal College of Art's Industrial Design Engineering programme."
She Worf Peter Coffin did a parody of the Shakira song "She Wolf".

Get Marvelous Or Get Lost Moon did the choreo for this cool t-shirt commercial.
Smells Stronger This is a cool mashup of Daft Punk & Nirvana.
Music From A Tree Diego Stocco is pretty creative, but I still like the idea of getting music from half naked hot chicks a little more.
Steven Tyler Fail I love Aerosmith, but I had to laugh at this clip.
Alethea Alethea is doing some insanely hot tricks on this stripper pole to the Metallica song "Bleeding Me".
This is the second day in a row the blog title involves a penis...that's a strange first.

Spintown News: Friday I'm having a minor surgery. I shouldn't miss more then a day of blogging, if that. For today I've got another HUGE blog post, so start skimming...

Heal The World A group of performers from Kollaboration Acoustic got together and did a great Michael Jackson cover.
You Can't Tell Me (What To Do) I thought this was a funny & well done music video. It was directed by Dustin McLean. The music was written & performed by Dustin McLean, Jason Nash and J.P. Hesser.
The Warning (Mariah Carey Diss) I'm not a huge fan Eminem, but I've got to give him credit. This is someone you shouldn't talk bad about, unless you've got a thick skin. He totally destroys Mariah Carey in this track, and if you go to the actual YouTube page for this video it has all the lyrics in the video description box.
World Science Festival '09: Bobby McFerrin "Bobby McFerrin demonstrates the power of the pentatonic scale, using audience participation, at the event "Notes & Neurons: In Search of the Common Chorus", from the 2009 World Science Festival, June 12, 2009."

For the last couple weeks I really haven't been online much at all because of that. I'll be going in for another surgery in the near future, but I'm hoping it only keeps me from blogging a couple days when that time comes. But since I'm back, for now at least, I'm going to attempt to get this blog caught back up.

Here's an image from 1 of the 3 videos that will be coming out all at once.
Song Fight Review: The most recent topic is titled "Dry Spell". I've listened to all 31 entries, and here are my top 5 I think are worth a listen:
1. Flvxxvm Florvm 2. Banging Betty 3. Jay Bullock 4. The Weakest Suit 5. Elly Lane & The Janglin' Jims
