Myspace Will Censor You
I've said it before and I'll say it again, Myspace sucks as a company. According to the guys from Ask a Ninja, Myspace is blocking external links to smaller, more innovative video and photo sharing sites like Revver, basically preventing users from posting Revver videos to their site, in favor ...
Boards of Canada – Dayvan Cowboy

Famous logos redone Web 2.0 style, …and some thoughts

Nosaj Thing – “Us (Jon Hopkins Remix)” •
Jon Hopkins’ take on Us, featured on Drift Remixed, is a lot more aggressive. The video flows through the slaughter, preparation and devouring of a meal as its high point. The cleaning in heavenly light as its downfall. Great concept as the video perfectly aligns with the ambiance of the song.

Massive Attack – “Atlas Air” •
Massive Attack videos are exactly like their music. Dark, uncompromising in style with attitude and a slightly offset integrity. Serves as a prequel to the marvelous “Splitting the Atom” video.

I’m Still Here (2010)
The documentary felt a little monotonous , the cut and paste style could be more refined. I missed some sort of moral, but the mockumentary in itself was pretty fun.

Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga’Hoole (2010)
It’s too much of a kids film for me to enjoy, but the animation and cinematography looks gorgeous which makes up for a lot.
