In a wondrous clusterf**k of happenings that all took place within about 30 minutes at the junction of Leeson Street Upper and Sussex Road in Dublin 4, on the way to the old Burlington Hotel earlier this evening, we witnessed, first of all, an impressive firework like display of massive electrical fail on some overhead electrical wires followed almost immediately by the apparent collapse of Séamus Heaney outside an affected restaurant nearby, which ultimately resulted in a car crash involving “rubberneckers.” Sadly, only the electrical fire was committed to video.

A live electricity cable went rogue outside O’Brien’s Pub on Sussex Terrace, creating a massive firework display.  (Unfortunately, I only caught the tail end of it on camera).

An old schoolbus converted into a sleek living space, floored with wood panels recycled from an old gymnasium, created over 14 weeks by architecture student Hank Butitta.

He’s currently midway through a 5000 mile road trip to test it out (yes, his is a hard ‘oul station) and you can curse his youthful dream chasing follow his progress here.

An homage to 80’s movies, 90’s video games, and Dublin city. This one’s a little incomplete but we decided to release it while (most) of the shopfronts and streets are still there. Featuring a soundtrack by Sounds of System Breakdown. Enjoy.

Two beardly stop-motion animations: Trim, by Peter Simon in which Tom Offer-Westort goes from bald man to mountain man in 38 seconds and the epic shave that is Magic Beard by Ben Garvin (shot on an iPhone and composed with the Stop Motion Studio app), which is even sillier.
