An alarming cover of Jimmy Page’s guitar solo from Stairway To Heaven by German theremin expert Carolina Eyck.
She also does a more melodic cover of Ennio Morricone’s The Ecstasy Of Gold from the soundtrack of The Good, The Bad and The Ugly.
Woo Hoo!

Tenpin bowler Ben Ketola (what are the chances?) sets a world record by bowling the perfect game (300 points by way of 12 consecutive strikes) in under 90 seconds.
Ben’s two-handed scamper technique isn’t pretty but, boy, that sucker can roll.
Designer Paul Nicholson, who designed the Aphex Twin logo, talks about his iconic gatefold designs for Richard James’ second album Selected Ambient Works Vol. 2.
A short by 4th year CalTech animation student Josh Swallow in which a lion helps a little boy build a better boat and get back home.
Not as family friendly as it may initially appear.
In a world of poultry, one chicken sets out to answer the ultimate question.
Nick Black shot this claymation short over two years with a DSLR camera, using sets made of found objects.
Of this tonal flight of fancy, inspired by the work of artist Dennis Hlynsky, Conner Griffith sez:
Crow flight patterns are echoed at a thirtieth of a second to create a loopable waveform that corresponds to a tone. The waveform was measured at 27 crows across one tenth of a second. The animation plays at 12fps (2.25 seconds per 27 birds) and is 22.5 times slower than the rate of the comparable frequency. The median crow waveform was “tuned” to D4 and from there, the other crow waveforms were measured. Different wave shapes (sine, saw) were loosely based on flight pattern shape, which was a result of the speed of the crow and the angle and proximity of the crow to the camera.
Well, duh.

A very short but deeply satisfying video of furniture maker Paul Sellars chiselling a fair approximation of ‘golden’ or Fibonacci spirals from the surface of a piece of wood.
Oh my.
