We Love This: The Canon Logic Daytrotter Session

posted: November 22nd, 2011 / in Music / We Love This

We’ve already expressed our love for The Canon Logic numerous times.  We’ve written about them.  They’ve written about us.  We won’t overstate our love for them.  All we want you to do is check out their Daytrotter Session.  This was recorded while the band was stomping around the U.S. on their recent tour.  It is [...]

We Love This: MF DOOM Lecture At Red Bull Music Academy [VIDEO]

posted: November 7th, 2011 / in Music / News / Video / We Love This

It’s no secret that MF Doom is one of our favorite artists, ever.  So we’re pretty geeked at this 90 minute lecture/q&a he did at the Red Bull Music Academy.  In it, he candidly discusses every aspect of his career to date while wearing his mask.  Thats all that needs to be said.  Check out [...]

WE LOVE THIS: Bibio – “Excuses” [VIDEO]

posted: March 7th, 2011 / in Music / Video / We Love This

Bibio has come a long way.  Somewhere around 2005-2006, he put out fi, which is exactly what the name suggests.  It was so (adorably) scratchy and analog-sounding that it would seem weird to toss it in the “lo-fi” pile, while at the same time it was clearly not “high” fidelity.  So “fi” just fit.  Check [...]

We Love This: Daft Punk in TRON Legacy

posted: October 12th, 2010 / in We Love This

As you know, we’re pretty into Tron, what with all the lights and the lasers and the…well, you get the picture.  We’re also huge Daft Punk fans, so when the news leaked a while back that Daft Punk would be doing the soundtrack for the next Tron movie we freaked.  Well, apparently they are going [...]

WE LOVE THIS: “Evensong” by Sophie Clements

posted: August 23rd, 2010 / in Abstract / Music / Video / We Love This

Michelle just forwarded me this one, and its brilliant.  This is a piece of “visual music” created by Sophie Clements, and what we admire here is the amazing control she has over her lights.  Anyone who can manipulate light that well in a video setting deserves recognition for it, as it is no easy feat.  [...]

WE LOVE THIS: 6 Month Pinhole Exposures

posted: August 4th, 2010 / in We Love This

This dude took the idea of long exposures VERY seriously, and we love it.  Justin Quinnell (your photos are genius so that Papyrus font gets a pass) made pinhole cameras out of soda cans and then stuck them to telephone poles for 6 MONTHS and let the images grow from there.  The results are seriously [...]

WE LOVE THIS: Light Warfare

This is awesome!  Glad to see someone using lightpainting for evil and not good.  Mwahahaha. And here is a video of how they created their Light battle…

Summer So Far + The Canon Logic Rooftop This Thursday!

posted: July 20th, 2010 / in Events / News / Video / We Love This

Maaaaaaan…summer.  One the one hand, its blazin hot and you need to take two showers a day, on the other hand, EVERYTHING AWESOME happens during the summer.  There’s shows, rooftop parties, barbecues, cracked open fire hydrants, and the constant singing of ice cream trucks.  So you throw on sunscreen, practice your day drinkin’, stock up [...]

Michelle + P.O.S. + Immaculate Infatuation

posted: June 16th, 2010 / in Music / Video / We Love This

If you didn’t know already, we basically do whatever Immaculate Infatuation tells us to do.  Immaculate Infatuation is a local NYC-based food blog run by two music-biz guys who take a pretty relaxed approach to the daunting NYC food scene.  They’re also our friends.  So when they were looking for a photographer to shoot one [...]

WE LOVE THIS: Janet Hansen – Light Fashion Engineer

posted: May 13th, 2010 / in Design / Fashion / New Toys / Video / We Love This

VBS.TV just posted this episode of “Motherboard”, focusing on the wearable light art of Janet Hansen.  All we can really say about this is just WANT! and other explosive declarations of love for this kind of stuff.  Her LED fur coat, the Daft Punk suits, and the outfits she made for MIA’s dancers are our [...]
