.blip blip. Whos there?


It's http://blip.fm/seducedbylight

I know it's an social-overkill and that we are nauseated by the swarming social media networks by now. Holding a myriad of accounts and checking them thru' the day proves that your boss might have hired the wrong person.

Still, it's hard to resist this one for music seekers. It's twitter. It's last.fm. It's your twitter app to be your own dj. It's blip.fm

Search a song. Add your thoughts. Blip it. Added to your playlist. And linked to your twitter account. Idiot proof. (Try to find out if you are one.)

It's old news. I just find catching up to the 276th social media network can be fairly tedious. I mean, I've got a real life, you know.

.Synthesia.



Your head might cock to the left, then right again trying to grasp the meaning to this short film by Terri Timely. A duo partnered by Ian Kibbey and Corey Creasey.

As it's titled, "Synthesia", “is a neurologically based phenomenon in which stimulation of one sensory or cognitive pathway leads to automatic, involuntary experiences in a second sensory or cognitive pathway.” Basically, it just means that your senses are all screwed up. As in the video, the boy listening to his vegetables, mum chopping up words and her other son smelling colors from his music. Perception flexed to your own interpretation.

It is a little complex for those who just don't see any purpose to it, but if you dive in deeper, it is actually a good mind-gyming to your straight, lazy mind.

N.A.S.A + Alexi Tylevich - A Volta.




It's sin city in sim city. This electro-toy film noir gangster-esque/ coke-fueled space video will mess you up. It's a godamn killer.

“A Volta”, is directed by Logan’s Alexei Tylevich and inspired by the work of Mexican-American artists The Date Farmers. Sit up, and get shot down.

.In a corner of the world - there is day of light.

"In Managua, Nicaragua, 1500 people live their lives inside a huge landfill called “La Chureca” (The Scavenging Place). Adults and children sift through piles of flaming trash looking for anything they can eat, fix, or recycle.

In “Dia De Luz” (Day Of Light), director Matt Katsolis and musician Braddigan, working with non-profit anti-poverty group Love, Light, & Melody, chronicle one full day in La Chureca and show us how hope can grow in the darkest of places.

This film is important for two big reasons: we need to acknowledge that places like this exist so we can hopefully work to stop it, and we need to absorb that if these people, in a place so devoid, can celebrate and find joy in their lives then the rest of us have no reason to not do the same."

Trippy, grimy, technicolored electro vid.

It may go well with Thieves like Us' "Drugs in my body."

In a gloomy day or two, don't you wish there are some cheer-me-up agents that come in miniature size chromatic robots to help paint your life?

I hope I can play Left4dead X our real environment via my iPhone next time.

.Thai Masked Ultra Man.


It's really funny if you know chinese. In higher relevance to HK's cantonese though.

If not, you can still enjoy the very long, and adrenalin un-pumping heros theme song from the land of smiles - Thailand.

I would be so pissed driving behind this bunch of masked jokers.

Great bjork-ish new voice. Only younger.

.freedom.


I'm so inactive that I forgot that I have a blog.

Ohwell. 

Last weekend was a blast. Annual "2 days of Freedom" took place at Malacca @ Malaysia this year. With half the strength of our notorious wild-ass PD crew, this trip had not lack lustre nonetheless.

The lights and set up of the electronic music festival was so awe-inspiring, they made Zoukout looks like a trick-bag's joke. There were 2 arena, house/electro and brain-frying trance. Starring Ferry Corsten on Friday night and Above and Beyond on Saturday. The laser show, graphic projection and fireworks may not outdo the last one at Port Dickson (Tiesto), yet it is admirably mind-blowing. 

Yet the major spoil sport was that the evil night had to end at 2am, due to the ridicule of Malaysian public entertainment licensing and regulations. You will not even believe that alcohol was not allowed to be sold at a dance party. Regardless, all are forgiven for the good times and visual stimulation that blew our grandmothers' socks. 

Our madhouse bungalow after-party stays legendary.

Nothing beats a great time with the best crew.

If you are not there, you are not there.
