In 1965, filmmakers Bob Rafelson and Bert Schneider made ‘Here Come The Monkees’ – a 16mm pilot for the show that would eventually become NBC’s hit boyband sitcom of 1966.

You can hear the demo version of the famous theme tune at 6.14.

A fascinating mini-doc by the Grantland Channel exploring how, for the last 18 years, the Compton Cricket Club (aka ‘Homies and the Popz’) has changed lives in Compton, California.

The CCC was founded in 1995 to:

…curb the negative effects of gang activities amongst the youth of Compton, address homelessness in the inner city through the principles and ethics of cricket and encourage and promote civility, good and productive citizenship.

In this ‘small tribute to Photoshop filters’, Barcelona based design studio Device apply every Photoshop filter to the Photoshop logo in a bid to ‘seek the essence of the software.’
