Real Life Space Invaders
01/22/10
I don't know how I missed this video for Röyksopp's "Happy Up Here" when it came out, but it's got everything. Space invaders, light bulbs, explosions, sign pr0n, science stuff- you name it. It's a pretty catchy tune, too.

Famous Synth Sounds
11/23/09
It's kind of a minor hobby of mine to try to figure out where samples in songs originally come from and what instruments the artists use to make certain sounds that I find interesting. The other night I was searching for the famous "James Brown is Dead" sound and I found a sweet article at synthmania.com that listed the origins of a bunch of famous synth sounds. It also listed several organs, loops and other fun things and provided sound samples for most. You should go check it out.

This Venn Diagram showing the relationships between the various members of the non-jock class (nerds, geeks, dorks and dweebs) has been floating around the Intertubes lately. I'm glad I found it because it's already settled several arguments ("He's a geek. No, he's more of a nerd. No you're a nerd! Yeah well your face is a nerd!")

Wahha Go Go
08/31/09
I'm not quite sure what's going on here. This Wahha Go Go thing is kind of freaking me out but I like it.
 
So from what I can gather you get the flywheel spinning, which drives a set of bellows and a series of cams which modulates some "vocal cords" to produce creepy mechanical laughter. Add a moving cartoony mouth to the business end and the effect is complete. I don't really know what effect, but it seems to be the perfect blend of art and weird.

So now I guess girls who like to hang around geeks are "nerd hags". I didn't know there were enough of them out there to warrant their own classification. I dare you to get your girlfriend to wear this nerd hag shirt!
