Micheal Gregory’s Auto Tune the News is so popular it got written up in Time Magazine. This week’s installment is really really really funny. I’m crying.

Thx p.trick

Feed yer brain. Henry Jenkins is the co-dir of MIT’s Comparative Media Studies program and leader in field of Transmedia Stroytelling. There is some overlap here with some of the subjects touched on by Clay Shirky in his book Here Comes Everybody. I find myself fascinated by books and media that explore this forefront of the changing media and information landscape. Let me know if you have read/seen/x-casted anything lately that addresses this sort of thing.

Good find Seth.

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.

An oldie but a very goodie (from Look Around You season 2).

You might remember this French guy Remi from his hialrious Mario Kart stunt. Well he is back at it. Can’t wait to see what is next.

From Kotaku – Thx Jonathan

There has been a slew of media recently explaining the current credit crisis in layman’s terms (if a bit late guys). A few highlights are the This American Life/NPR News episode from a few weeks ago (a follow up to their great Giant Pool of Money show that aired last year – not as late I suppose) and a couple of articles from this month’s Wired.

The video above is a pretty neato visualized explanation from LA designer Jonathan Jarvis that does a nice job of explaining things pretty quickly.

No, no, according to Deadspin it is just an extra generous dose of NO2 – but man is that funny.

Thx Oliver

The trailer for new snowboarding flick from Brain Farm, That’s It, That’s All makes the movie look more like Planet Earth than your typical Mack Dawg affair. Judging from the 2nd hardcore trailer on their site, it might just be clever editing. Regardless this flick looks ridiculously sick and the line up of riders is about as good as it gets. Ohh, I hope Santa brings me this bad boy.

Nice spot Oliver.

One donkey Xmas video deserves another. Hey how bout a sequel guys?

This video “Bike Hero” was posted yesterday and as of right now it has 580,000 views. Incredible. It deserves it, though. Pretty cool idea and execution.

Whirrdup to p.trick for the spot.

I just got turned on (thx señor cohen) to this great trend of dubbing classic videos with a literal narrative of the wacky videos. Just YouTube “literal video” for more.

Just what the world needs… a new kind of mashup. Pretty damn funny.

Nice find p.trick

This is actually the first video I have ever uploaded to YouTube. Jenny Lewis last Weds at Spaceland. She was fantastic and I was CLOSE!!

Am I really 2 months late on this promo for Gentlemen Broncos??
