what did kylie do this weekend?

"They come from there and say 'let's stop by to see the puppies,'" said Moritz... "The adorable sight of furry faces in the window and the effects of alcohol can be a bad combination"

NOT GUILTY!

somehow the casey anthony story slipped right past my usually perceptive senses. all of this momentum toward the verdict has been building over the weekend, and i've just been like "who?" anyway, the verdict is IN! she's not guilty?

so, the office and gchat and facebook are a-buzz with the news, and i decided the least i could do is read a wikipedia page. i don't think anyone will be surprised to learn that it was highly complimentary of the state of tennessee:

The Anthony case broke new ground regarding scientific evidence.

University of Tennessee's "Body farm" discovered "hair banding," a phenomenon in which hair roots can form a dark band after death. A hair found in the trunk of the Anthony car exhibited this pattern.[50] Also new is the work of University of Tennessee's Oak Ridge National Laboratory in which air extracted from the trunk of the Anthony car revealed human decomposition and the presence of chloroform.[50] (via)

so, despite the best efforts of the brilliant scientists at my alma mater and the home of the atom bomb, florida still managed to blow it. GO VOLS!!

ready to learn again?

i listened to this episode of 'fresh air' on my way to work this morning. given joel's recent devotion to what some consider to be our planet's last wild food source, i thought i'd share this "dive" into the transformation of the seafood industry over recent decades, and how its environmental impact has evolved.

i'll be honest, i did not know bluefin tuna could get this big. enjoy!

Music video analysis: Coldplay

First, watch this.


Don't get me wrong. I like Coldplay as much as the next guy (way more than the next guy), but it seems to me that somebody stumbled around youtube for a while and cobbled this video together. here are what i see as the points of reference,

Blu. This Italian artist combines whimsy, stop-motion photography and abandoned or neglected buildings to create film candy. this video also shows that you don't have to cover-up the extant graffiti before you shoot.the coldplay building looks weirdly sterilized.



Kinetic Typography of Stephen Fry. Kinetic Typography is everyones favorite thing. Daft punk has like thousands of these videos made by students for their production classes.




Her Morning Elegance, Oren Lavie. This video took the blogosphere by storm. very pleasant.



also if you are going to paint blast a building, don't do it post production. get the sand out and do it like Sony did.
