IF ATHEISTS RULED THE WORLD

The guys act out word-for-word text taken from an online Christian fundamentalist forum. AWESOME!

ROYCE & MARILYN TALK OPERA & CLASSICAL



These two elderly ladies share a hotel room (and bed) in LA. One is a sweet happy-go-lucky compliant woman and the other is a deluded crank. COMEDY GOLD! I have a feeling by Hallowe'en there'll be a couple of Royce's walking around yelling "Oh Shut Up!"

KUTIMAN'S THRU-YOU ALBUM


This is perhaps one of the finest things I've seen on the web in a long time. The Israeli musician/composer/producer Kutiman (his real name is Ophir Kutiel) has an online album called ThruYOU where he took various samples and clips from YouTube and compiled/remixed and edited them to create his own compositions--which ROCK. His site also credits the 100's of people who "contributed" to his recordings by linking the original video sources so you can see what he started with. It's AMAZING. Click on the image above to launch his site. John Drdyen, there's even a jazzy flute bit on track 07, Just A Lady.

There's a web video demonstration on their site that shows it in aciton. This fella too has a video demo of it...

SONY BRAVIA: ZOETROPE

I wish I had the two zoetrope strips I made in my grade 12 film class. 12 images of a dreadlocked rastafarian's head turning 360 degrees. I also handed in a pornographic piece under the name Hugh G. Rection. A week later, when the teacher was calling us up to collect our projects and our marks, he called out for Hugh Rection. I honestly had completely forgotten so I didn't catch on. He kept calling out the name (he knew there was no one in the class by that name of course) until he finally said, Johnny. You're friends with Hugh right? Give his project back to him and tell him he got an "A+". Though he was cool about it, I was embarrassed that he knew that I did the mildly offensive animation. I bet it would have looked awesome on this:



Here's the making of:

SASQUATCH SIGHTING

My buddy Jordy Starling took this picture of Captain Sasquatch the other day in Kelowna (I presume).

Jordy writes: "Hey Slut, as I was shopping for oddities at an auction I was startled to find myself browsing along with one of North America's great mysteries. I pulled out my low quality cell phone camera and snapped this elusive character. The auction itself was underwhelming but at least I walked away with some proof for all the non-believers."

A couple of questions: Was he shopping too or was he for sale? If the latter, how much?!
