Musician John Boswell has come up with an incredible project he calls The Symphony of Science. He remixes and auto-tunes scientific greats rapping about the universe and what results is truly as fantastic as the subjects they discuss. The songs are so great the Jack White has even released the single on 7 inch. Both the track above and the second track are available to download from the SoS site. Can’t wait for more.
Thx Derbs for the knowledge.
Wow amazing video from Cha Ching! How the hell did they get the likes of Julianne Moore, Zach Galifianakis, Billy Crudup, Vinnie Jones and Henry Rollins?
Thx Sasha for the link and congrats to your bros.
Japanese band Sour employed an army of fans with webcams for this very innovative video.
Nice find ADK.
Wow! The interactive video for the Cold War Kids’ great track I’ve Seen Enough just pushed the limits for anything I’ve ever seen as far as videos go. Click the colors on the top to chose from 4 different instrument per band member or click them to mute them altogether. This lets the user remix the song and video on the fly. Incredible! I could play with this thing all day.
Thx Timoney!
Wow – an extremely cool mashup of Tarantino flicks. Fantastic editing of music, sound and video. Worth watching all the way through (how cool is the drumming around 5′?!).
I haven’t checked out Eclectic Method’s other stuff but I’m gonna have to soon.
I have never seen tilt-shift applied to a video but the effect is f-ing awesome. More about the project here.
I just got turned on (thx seƱor cohen) to this great trend of dubbing classic videos with a literal narrative of the wacky videos. Just YouTube “literal video” for more.
I may be 10 months late to the party but this video for Justice’s D.A.N.C.E is S.I.C.K. Always on the look out for great animation.
Good call Addy.
Friday funny is back! Here are a few things I have laughed at over the last 8 weeks. Some are too funny to throw in the mix but I’ll try to get through all this as quick as pie!

A family member once told me I am Welsh. Some small part of me at least and maybe my last name. I know almost nothing about Wales at all – but for some reason I have some Welsh pride.
Duffy is from Wales. She is blowin up in the Isles and has been makin a bit of noise over on this side very recently. She has definitely been getting the Amy Winehouse comparison (probably mostly because of her single ‘Mercy’) – but upon listening to more of her tracks I don’t think I agree. Her angelic voice and retro sound are fantastic and if that isn’t enough, she is a mega babe. My prediction – she’s gonna be huge.
Check out her set from KCRW’s Morning Becomes Eclectic at SXSW.

This pretty damn sick spec (not commissioned or paid for by the band) video for “Kids” by MGMT is by up and coming young director Jon Salmon. Props man this vid is dope …and what a great song to pick.
Check out the comments conversation. Is that foxy youngin singing along in the KISS getup with the ponytail a lass or a lad? You make the call…
What may become a semi regular feature around here, I’d like to bring you some of this week’s best/funniest/most popular web videos.
