The Fan and The Flower
this is one of the most beautiful animations i saw in a while.
tried to youtube it but it's copyrighted.
if you want to see it, it's here, but it takes some time to download.
"An ill fated and unconsummated romance between a fan and a flower magically creates a fairy tale ending. A very atypical Bill Plympton film. "
Dear Bill Plympton, if you mind just e-mail me and i'll remove it.

today's artist - squarepusher ( impingatorul de patrat )
Squarepusher :: 'Hello Meow'
brilliant use of the bass guitar.It's hard to believe that an artist like squarepusher started as a bass guitar player and first electronic experiments were just experiments.

Sometimes advertising is good.
Kids were sent out in the streets with notes they could pin on the backs of grown-ups in order to fool them.
Copy of the message:
"You've just been fooled by a Belgian child. Give children from the south also a chance to be a child. Start your own plan with Plan Belgium and become a Plan Parent. Surf to www.iederzijnplan.be"

mircea fa-te ca lucrezi !
a project by Dragos Platon.
real objects stenciled with " mircea fa-te ca lucrezi !"
this translates : "mircea pretend you're working" , is the one line said by Caramitru to M.Dinescu without knowing they were on the air.Romanian Revolution by TVR. 22 december 1989

what the fuck?
Sometimes I read something in a newspaper and i just wonder about the qualities that the writers have to have.
cotidianu recommends silent strike.
Because he produced borat's soundtrack.wow
hmm...and then i find out about silent strike's producer...mitran alexe..great. not to mention the other non checked info.
and then i just can't help thinking about how blogging is not professional publishing, according to other newspapers.
"Recomandam Silent Strike pentru ca a produs manual 1.000 de exemplare din albumul sau, cu un design de exceptie, si coloana sonora a filmului ''Borat'', pentru ascultatorii cu un umor bine dezvoltat."
well, borat is pretty good pr for kazakstan, maybe the reporter just wanted to see if he works like magic on other areas.

not enough security?
In the belief that the world's most surveilled society isn't surveilled enough, eight London cops are getting HEAD-MOUNTED VIDEO CAMERAS to record their run-ins with drunks, soccer hooligans and unrestrained American tourists. The battery-operated cams will record police interactions, and may be used in court.

silent disco in bucharest
been to silent disco last saturday
at first it was bizzare but after you got used with the silent atmosphere it was quite ok.
it crossed my mind that, if everyone sang the thing would have transformed into a massive karaoke
and another idea, that if i would have had a radio device for my ipod then, instead of 2 dj's there would have been at least 3.
and another idea, bluetooth is soo under used.

well, like them both, first one is friendlier, sort of makes you think that you can be as comfy outside as inside, like this hommy touch to it and the second one makes grass and "keep it green" a very cool thing.

med expertise as a F1 routine.
"As 18-month-old Alexander Barham was wheeled into intensive care, his survival depended on the expertise of the medical specialists all around him and, in no small part, on the split-second precision of the Ferrari Formula One motor racing team".
A gripping story in the Telegraph describes how a major restructuring of the patient handover procedure resulted from the input of the F1 pit technicians. Surgeons at a London childrens hospital became aware of the similarities between the handover disciplines from theatre to intensive care and what they saw in the pit of a Formula One racing team. Their complex and life-critical process involves coupling a bewilderment of tubes to drug supply, ventilation and monitoring equipment above the young patient's head. The story describes how Ferrari's race technical director Nigel Stepney helped the hospital team improve the procedure. Stepney comments in the story: "It takes a long time to establish a (pit) team. We have twenty-odd people working together for four to six years to get a routine which lasts little more than four seconds. They work round the clock, every day, with ever-changing personnel, so what they need is a formula to work to."

small font theory
been to groove armada and discovered soulwax.
groove armada..hmm..just proves that my theory about bands, their celebrity and bringing them to RO is valid.
well.groove armada was presented as the band with the biggest font on the flyer.
they still are famous but they were good years ago.
so the theory is like this.if you go to a gig for the band with the biggest font (famous band) but good years ago, the chances that they suck is really big.but instead you might discover one of the smallest font band.and they might be just very good.
had no idea about soulwax.really good.liiifeeeee.
youtube and google them

this spartan life
wiki :"This Spartan Life is an award-winning talk show created by Bong + Dern Productions and produced and directed by Chris Burke, who hosts the show under the pseudonym Damian Lacedaemion
"Damian Lacedaemion is not your average talk show host.
He lives inside an online game where daily existence is a struggle against overwhelming odds (and other, much better players.) So he has taken it upon himself to create a little oasis of sanity where he can talk to people who aren't bent on his destruction. He invites guests to join him in a live game where they can walk about and discuss some of the finer aspects of life, music, art, sex, movies and yes, even games."
