The video for New leaf by Portland band Alameda, directed by Legwork Studio, what sez:

We started the project nearly two years ago as a way to explore new animation techniques, specifically digital rotoscoping over 3D animation. The goal was to combine the hand-made feel of painting with the perfection of 3D camera movement and environments.

A video that made the top ten for OK Go’s recent music video contest. Directed By S. Palmer, who sez:

My approach to the video was to build a storyline around the lyrics using mainly the Instagram feeds from the members of the band (over 40 of their pics are represented in some manner in the video). I used their online presence elsewhere (Twitter, Youtube, blog interviews, etc.) to help fill in the gaps.

rail

Simon Schoar has lovingly crafted this wonderful standalone Floppy Disk Jukebox.

Housed in a machined black aluminium rail are 8 drives modified with LEDs.

These play MIDIs provided from a SD card reader, allowing the unit to act as a proper jukebox.

He’s even provided details on how to build your own should you have enough floppy drives lying about in your ‘man’ drawer.

His version of the Tetris theme certainly beats out a pair of drives, to be fair.

The Most Beautiful Floppy Disk Jukebox Ever

allmyGStill not over hipster godfather James Murphy packing it all in?

Want to help Pieta House?

Chewy sez:

Myself and a few friends are organising a big Christmas party in aid of Pieta House this Sunday in Dublin’s Button Factory. It’s a DFA/LCD themed night called All My Friends and we are billing it as a Christmas party for mates. Time to take stock and be thankful for one another and at the same time remember friends who can’t be here. There will be live music from Benny Smiles and Sleep Thieves and a special DFA/LCD set from The Disco Brunch DJs and Colin Perkins. I know a few of your readers have an interest in both Pieta and good gigs so figured you may like this…

€5 donation at the door.
