Here’s the new video from Little Boots.

It is, regrettably, awful. Dancing homeless people, gang members prancing about like extras from West Side Story and a truly embarrassing denouement featuring… ack, I don’t know, some sort of choreographed prostitute orgy. I’m making it sound about a million percent better than it actually is — watch it [...]

Having had some bad experiences with printers today, I thought I’d post up a few printer-related vids. First up, the fantastic ‘Printer Jam’ by Mistabishi:

Next, an inspired printer/scanner-led cover of ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’. This really is quite special.

And finally, one of the funniest scenes from one of the funniest movies of all time.

Fuckin’ A.

@hello_amy Hello… er, Amy! #
@polstyle Sounds like the premise to a hi-larious sitcom to me… in reply to polstyle #

Yes indeed. Yours truly doing the DJ thing this weekend. The place is Club OVO in Nakameguro (my manor) this Sunday between 19:00 and 24:00. Other DJs on the night include the most estimable MattB, the highly edible Lucca, and the generally indelible sAne who will be performing a unique audio/visual set that’s surely not [...]

^ Looks alright, I reckon. Still, it disappears when you go to the ‘About’ page. Any idea why that is?

It’s hanami season here in Japan right now. Hanami (or 花見 to use the lingo) is, ostensibly anyway, a centuries-old celebration to mark the blooming of the cherry blossoms and the coming of spring but basically it’s an excuse to get pissed in a field.
