Simply incredible

I've been meaning to post this for at least a week (since Rebecca D. kindly sent it to me), but you know - sometimes life gets all up in your piece.




Oh my god. So incredible. I would like to write up all of my analysis and feelings about this video, but life is, again, in my piece. As type a baby lies next to me on the couch needing my arms to hold him. Awwww...

In short: this piece makes me happy to be alive in this time. It proves that not everything has been done before and creativity is still very much alive.

Labels:

Don't believe the hype? Dirty Projectors

One of the records I was most excited about this summer was Bitte Ocre by the Dirty Projectors. The DPs caught my ear a few years ago when they released "Rise Above", an art-rock interpretation of Black Flag's "Wasted" (which I was aggressively bumping in my Sony Walkman at age 13.

Swayed by massive critical acclaim from bloggers and pros alike, I piked up the newest Projectors release. To my surprise I've yet to really latch on to it as a whole. There are moments of brilliance no doubt, especially the ballad "Two Doves" included below, but as an entity the album is missin the mark.

What am I missing? Are you also let down? Hook me in the comments.

Big ups Alejandro for the link.

Lest we forget sarcasm.

Don't get me wrong - I love being a dad and I LOVE Theodore. We've been diligently putting up video and pics over on the website to share that love.

However, I also enjoy sarcasm. Now the two have met in a chocolate + peanut butter moment. It' a website called Let's Panic. It's a "parenting" website in the loosest of ways. In fact, it's about as legitimate a parenting site as legitimate a newspaper The Onion is. Which isn't to say The Onion isn't pure genius, right?

Right.

Here, for instance, is one of their sponsors:

If you're not afraid of the snarky, check 'em out.

Big ups to Rebecca who sent me this, and who also has an amazing new illustration on her website.
