Vinyl Fantasy 7

Remember how awesomely geeky the Ocarina of Rhyme was? I’m happy to introduce Vinyl Fantasy 7—a great mashup of Final Fantasy and hip-hop (featuring artists Jay-Z, Outkast and Ghostface Killah). The above is just a YouTube preview, but you can download the entire CD here.

Mousepath Art

Mousepath tracks your mouse movements and generates a graphic. If you leave your mouse idle, it creates a black dot. The longer you stay idle, the larger that dot is. You get some pretty amazing looking images for just a couple of hours working on the computer.

All you have to do is download the app and minimize it so it runs in the background. Once you are ready to save, simply go back to the app and click “S” to save.

Download the app and make your own:

ITS A TRAP!

Darth Bale Rant

Its exactly what it sounds like. Except its done better. Christian Bale as Darth Vader as Christian Bale ranting. Check out DarthBale.com for the individual videos and even a bonus video: Snatch Wars. [Thanks Sean.]

Korean Girl Practices Handkwondo

Cute video at first. But try doing this yourself and you’ll realize how well done this is. The one-handed push ups are great, but the sit ups look weird.

[Thanks Scott.]

Haiti 360° Interactive Video

Haiti360

Haiti360_2

CNN teamed up with Immersive Media to bring an interactive 360 video from Haiti. They used a 360 camera to capture the footage. Then they edit it so you can spin the camera around during playback. Read the full CNN article here.

First-Person Tetris

Studies show that Tetris can help reduce the effects of traumatic stress. First-Person Tetris kinda does that—except it also helps induce vomiting. I played for 3 minutes before giving up. Take some Epicac and try to get to level 5.

Star Wars Burlesque Show at the Bordello

Aren’t you a little hot for a Stormtrooper?

An LA club, Bordello, put on a Star Wars Burlesque Show on Saturday. There are some awesome photos shot by Shannon Cottrell as well as a full article on boing boing.

Check out some scenes from that night here.

[Thanks Fred.]

Finally, the Usher Goat has a worthy rival. Check out Death Metal Rooster.

When I saw the blog, Nic Cage as Everyone, I was crying because I laughed so hard.
Then I had to submit one. Hopefully PeeWee will show up on the blog soon…

Submit yours to niccageaseveryone@gmail.com
