Farewell to Arms

I gave up TV a few years ago for the greener pastures of the Internet, so far its been a life changing experience. I’m no longer running home to watch my favorite shows or channel surfing to fall asleep. By giving-up the idea of ‘current’ in my normal diet of procedural dramas and late night punditry, the internet is a bottomless well of on-demand content. But, once and awhile I get to sit in front of a real TV signal, live people and all. Of the few times that’s happened, I realized how obvious it was that you’re really watching commercials with story interruptions. I also noticed major trends in thematic programming (vampires, sci-fi, 80s TV) and commercials, but one thing stood out in particular.

New levels of Doodle

When you have some free time, most people will watch TV or clean the sock drawer. Others build highly sophisticated video game mods of Deloreans that travel time.

Major Tom

The Japan Space Agency (JAXA) has sent a satellite to orbit the moon and capture it in high definition. Unfortunately, this tourist isn’t coming home. It will lose orbit and crash on the moon, actually, I think it has already. (I will jam some Pink floyd in your honor). More moon pr0n here.

Purple Chocolate Sunset

Stones Throw single-handedly redeems my distaste for 405 traffic, smog, fake people, and numerous other Los Angeles shortcomings. How can you disagree with this track list and a hand drawn LP jacket? Correct answer: you can not. Hot Dam!

The RED Canon Invades Haleiwa

redcanon1

Apparently Vincent Laforet just finished a stint in country shooting Jamie O’Brien. You may have noticed the remote control helicopter hovering over the line-up at Pipe last week, well, that was them. The neat part is that Vincent has outlined his gear and posted a few “behind the scenes” videos on his blog containing footage shot with the RED One and the Canon 5D MKII.

Laforet shot the original drool-inducing promo video for the Mark II. The short gave us photo nerds an exchangeable boner the first time we saw it, and had us scrambling towards the pre-order list. Needless to say, Vincent’s had some time to experiment with the camera and figure out how to maximize its capabilities. We’re going to heed his advice and order our ND filters tomorrow.
