Free Album Download – Greenhouse Effect – Electric Purgatory Part 1

Below is the link to a free promotional album download from Greenhouse Effect. If you don’t know Greenhouse Effect they are the band I suggested for album of the week and this version of Greenhouse consists of Blueprint and Illogic. I saw them perform a couple weeks back and it was amazing. Best live show I have ever seen.  When I saw that they released this for free I figured I would share it with everyone that visits our blog. Whenever I happen to come across more free downloads I …

Album You Should Be Listening To This Week (Hip-Hop) – Columbus or Bust by Greenhouse Effect

So last week I might have witnessed the most amazing thing I’ve ever seen in my life.  Last night I saw Blueprint and Illogic perform as Greenhouse Effect in the basement of a bar in Chinatown. It was the greatest live performance I have ever seen in my life and I say that with complete honesty. Never have I been so impressed by a live performance as I was last night. So this is what leads me to the decision to make Columbus or Bust by Greenhouse Effect my album …

Interview with Artist Reuben Rude

Reuben Rude’s current work can be described as drawings in paint over re-created time-lapse collage. Clean, sculpted lines meet artificially haphazard texture. These images are the culmination of the strange little doodles from a the backs of a thousand spiral notebooks, made during a thousand  5th period algebra classes . They are made in the spirit of drawing eyeglasses, beard, and devil horns on the historical figures in your American History textbook.  Look close, and you’re sure to recognize a friend or enemy. …

Video of the Day 4.19.10 (Cheeky Octopus)

The following is a descripotion and credits from Victor Huang.

While trying to get video of a wild octopus, it suddenly dashes towards me and rips my shiny new camera from out of my hands, then swims off, all while the camera is recording! he swam away very quickly like a naughty shoplifter. after a 5 minute chase, I placed my speargun underneath him and he quickly and curiously grabbed hold of the gun as well, giving me enough time to reach in and grab the camera from out of his mouth. I didn’t feel threatened at all during the whole ordeal. he seemed to be fixated on the shiny metallic blue digital camera. the only confusing behavior was how he dashed off with it like a thief haha. cheeky octopus.

Tales from the Heart (An animated exquisite corpse, perfect for Valentines Day.) from Droolart on Vimeo.
(August 2009) For this project we chose the human heart as a guiding theme, that and the black, white and red colour scheme were the only limitations we set for ourselves. We then each went our separate ways to create the content of this piece. We came back together a week later to mash it all together into the chaotic eye candy you see before you. Encompassing a wide range …
