Playing with FrameByFrame05.06.08

FrameByFrame is a freeware stop-motion app for OS X. I just used it to quickly make this very small test movie:
stopmotiontest.mov
Here it is embedded. Click to play: Had to cut it b/c it was crashing people’s FF3.

The little bit of music here is from NIN’s new freely downloadable album, the slip. The entire album is licensed under a Creative Commons license that allows me to use it in this little test video. How friggin’ awesome is that?! The song is called 1,000,000.

It’s like you took my two favorite artists and smashed them together. The only thing that would be more awesome is if Thom YorkeMahalo Petals walked out on stage and joined PrinceMahalo Petals in a rendition of Let’s Go Crazy.

You got your chocolate in my peanut butter! You got your peanut butter in my chocolate!

Here’s some more awesomeness:

Best German Song08.13.07

I was looking over the How to Speak GermanMahalo Petals page that Sara has been working on and was pleased to see Die Fantastichen Vier represented, and suddenly, I was hit with memories of Germany in 1995 and me discovering Die Artze and rocking out to this song:

Ausgezeichnet!

Here’s a Sims video of the non-live album version:

I think it would be amazing…05.11.07

…if everyone with a blog on Mother’s Day, in protest of the Hallmark holiday, would post this video:

I, of course, would never do such a thing, because I love my mother dearly.

ps—Wow. Sacrificing chickens in videos in 1988! Danzig, you so crazy!

God, John[ny], and The Wandering Jew Are Americans03.10.07

The full title of this old paper of mine is God, John[ny], and The Wandering Jew Are Americans: Manifestations of Biblical Legends/Myths of Immortality Within Late 20th Century Popular Culture. You can find it here in html format, and here as a PDF. It is copyright to myself, but I freely grant anyone the privilege to use the text in a classroom or educational setting, as long as it is not for a publication or for profit.

To the person who wrote to me several months ago, asking that I repost this article online, my apologies for the long delay. It took me quite a while to track the paper down.

Update: Found the song and video the paper is partially about on YouTube:

Prince is amazing…02.08.07

I forgot to mention this on Sunday, but OMG. I’ve been waiting for the SuperBowl clips on iTunes to materialize into a $1.99 copy of the half-time show, but someone doesn’t want to make some money. Fortunately, YouTube to the rescue:

and…

Pouring rain. Live performance. No recording lip-syncing bullshit. Just rocking Prince in the house. Best half-time show in years.

One good thing about iTunes not having this up and buyable, though, was that I discovered this Prince podcast. It’s actually good. Rock.
