I didn't know this, but this is cool radiohead fan or not. I hadn't seen their House of Cards video, but the technique used was recorded in data which you can play with yourself. You can even manipulate the view of the data while it plays through the recording if you wait for it to load. http://code.google.com/creative/radiohead/
For me, you are a blight on an otherwise perfect list of things that aren't blights (which you technically aren't on).
I wonder if there was an argument in the band about putting it on the album, where the sensible ones were all 'NO ITS TERRIBLE AND RUINS THE FLOW OF THE WHOLE THING' and the stupid ones were all 'BUT MARS ELLIOT SAID IT WAS GREAT!'

Faust Arp is one of the highlights of the album if you ask me......I'm probably going to get kicked in the nuts for saying this, but I find house of cards to be a BIT (and I highlight BIT for a reason) of a flat spot. Still a great song, but I find it the weakest of the lot. Fucking epic album In Rainbows, I honestly think it's their best....ehh maybe equal with OK Computer but maybe the best.

You never feel like drawing when you don't have any boring stuff you should be doing instead of drawing, at least I never do. Procrastination about other stuff is the ultimate art motivator.
It's like "I want to play video games instead of doing this shit, but I have to make it look I'm doing shit without actually doing it.....I know, I'll do some drawing."
I find that coupling drawing with another enjoyable thing works for me Mustang. I stick on a DVD of a TV show I like and paint for a disc or two while my minds occupied. Six Feet Under is my current painting fancy.
reackoner is the best song on the album
faust arp i also consider to be potentially the weakest on the album, but just because i find it messes with the flow. as a stand alone song, it is just as perfect as every other awesome radiohead song, but I do agree with desperate in that it jars things up a little. that being said, calling a song weakest on that album is akin to saying it's just slightly more awesome than songs made by every other band in the universe. cause it's radiohead.
the best album in my mind is still kid a. it is flawless.
Also Canada, while your money looks like it belongs in the Monopoly board game your Graffiti is second to none.
Well played.
toronto graffiti artists are fucking intense
though the competition from van city is up there.
other than monopoly money and bad cell phone service, how has your experience been in canada so far?
Pretty great, although i'm still getting adjusted to a lot of things.
Queen Street, where my school is located, looks like a much tidier version of the block from that movie Be Kind, Rewind. You know, without the ghetto aspect. Pretty cool. Also I snapped some pictures of some of last year's 1st year student work. Just about blew my mind what this kind of work schedule can produce.

Sigh, the guy I was interested in has found himself another man. Maybe watching Six Feet Under will cure my depression.
Oops I just slit my wrists!
I had to move the girl I was dating to the 'friend zone'... but, hey you know...
NEXT!!!
You clearly didn't instruct her well enough in the art of mind blowing oral sex. Once she has that down then it wouldn't even matter if she farted under the covers.
Actually, I just realized, the premise of Bolt makes absolutely no sense. The dog would know he didn't really have super powers because all the effects for the stuff he does would be done on a computer! Why would he think he still had those powers, when it's clear that he does none of those things during filming and they add the effects later? Plus, he has to be really retarded to think the storyline is real too.
Not to mention he's a dog, and dogs don't talk or think. Epic fail !
Brilliant writing, per usual of all things animated.
srsizzy on
BRO LET ME GET REAL WITH YOU AND SAY THAT MY FINGERS ARE PREPPED AND HOT LIKE THE SURFACE OF THE SUN TO BRING RADICAL BEATS SO SMOOTH THE SHIT WILL BE MEDICINAL-GRADE TRIPNASTY MAKING ALL BRAINWAVES ROLL ON THE SURFACE OF A BALLS-FEISTY NEURAL RAINBOW CRACKA-LACKIN' YOUR PERCEPTION OF THE HERE-NOW SPACE-TIME SITUATION THAT ALL OF LIFE BE JAMMED UP IN THROUGH THE UNIVERSAL FLOW BEATS

You know what would have been awesome? If they had just gone with the premise of the show in the movie than the real idea. I was sold when when the girl said "Speak!" and his bark tears up the road- then I was let down finding out it was all a farce.
Ugh, this whole Palin vice president stuff is depressing, because I know that the republican states are going to swarm the booths to vote for this cougar, much like many people are going to vote for Obama just because he's black.
It really sucks because almost all of the attention is off of Obama's wonderful DNC speech because of this.
On the plus side, McCain killed his only argument against Obama. The speech is going down in history books either way. All Obama needs to do in this election is get Democrats out to vote since they vastly out number Republicans this year.
Palin is as dumb as a butt. I've talked to her (for the newspaper), and she's got fuckall for experience and has no business being the vice-president of the U.S.
Though I have to admit that this should make things interesting.
Also, her kids are named Bristol, Piper, Track, Willow, and Trig. I mean, come on.

Edit: desperate: BOOOOOOOO!
Editx2: Actually I didn't really like Faust Arp much until I heard it through this video.

But yes, for me it's a blight on an otherwise perfect album.

I bet there was.
Can we at least agree that Reckoner is awesome?
Seriously! It would've been so cool....
Totally, best song...err...maybe not, I don't know, that album just kicks ass the whole way through.
EDIT: Damnit, now I don't know what to do with myself. And for some reason I don't feel like drawing.
It's like "I want to play video games instead of doing this shit, but I have to make it look I'm doing shit without actually doing it.....I know, I'll do some drawing."

Yeah, I like the previous design a lot more too. It still looks like it's going to be a really fun film.

And your women are gorgeous. Great googly moogly.
You're going to OCAD?
Oops I just slit my wrists!
Perhaps you should be watching Queer as Folk instead?
Well... I hope they use that style for another film. It looks pretty damn impressive but... not really in line with what bolt has become.

Holy Diver, the way that guy says CUBE gets me every time!
he says it kinda like "CUOBE"
"featuring the newest technologies which make calculators look like the cotton gin."
"blue, green, orange. the fun cannot be halted."
hahah such a great video.
What's OCAD?
I'm assuming something like Ontario School of Art and Design.
Well i'm not going there.
CUBE!
