To mark Record Store Day tomorrow, RTÉ Archives have released this picture of Ian Dempsey supporting Murray’s Record store, 71, Upper George’s Street, Dun Laoghaire in Dublin in 1980.
He was the James Dean of South Dublin. But he had a cause.
Music. At an affordable price.

For what event?
God, perhaps alone, knows.

A hypnotic clip (actually a teaser for an upcoming video for ‘Sparkles and Wine’ by French electronica group OPALE) in which director Nacho Guzman shows how lighting and the angle of illumination can radically affect how a face appears, in this case the face of actress Stella Stocker.
Guzman acknowleges the influence of French director Henri-Georges Clouzot’s unfinished 1964 film L’Enfer.

Behold: ten thousand iPhone5 dominoes (a quick calculation reveals at least €6.7 million worth of hypno-candy right there) all kitted out with Apple’s not-yet-available Near Field Communication (NFC) feature.
Not really. Only the first iPhone in this video from Aatma Studios is real. The rest are CG. Aatma has officially sanctioned form in this regard.

Ness Woods, Derry.
Copulating couple in Vauxhall Ampera (out of picture).
People are coming from “far and wide” to get involved in ‘dogging’ in Derry, a DUP councillor has claimed. Maurice Devenney said he has been contacted by a number of people over recent days who claim to have stumbled across “lewd sexual activity” at Prehen and Ness Woods.“One such incident was witnessed by a person out walking their dog at 3pm one afternoon, so these incidents are taking place in clear daylight,” Mr Devenney said.
“I am told that one person saw a male running around the woods with nothing on but a pair of stockings and suspenders.” Mr Devenney said there is now an onus on the police and council to act. He said if the land was Council owned he would campaign to have it gated off and appealed to the PSNI to step up patrols of the areas.
Let us all come together in peace.
Fnarr, snoik, etc.
