Waxy.org have posted online all the episodes of this documentary, which I’d not seen before, but which is fascinating in a thoroughly geeky and pre-intertube way:

The Machine That Changed the World: Great Brains – Waxy.org

So far I’m just into episode II, dealing with ENIAC and the breakthrough of computing machines into business. Thankfully I’m not quite old enough to remember punch-cards.

Well I’ve belatedly discovered that Weebl was responsible for the animated Hexstatic video which gave this blog its name. The song was Chase Me (from Master View) and the animation is available for your viewing pleasure on Weebl’s site. I’m glad I squared that circle.

Oh and Hexstatic also appear to have posted a lovely new mix up on their site.

How very random indeed. Great little number, for its mix of styles. And a fun video. I can’t tell whether the vocalist sounds more like Lily Allen, Pink, or Natasha *spit* Beddingfield. It’s so unashamedly poppy, with a satisfying amount of cut up and its just so bloody silly. I know I shouldn’t, but I like it.

The Graffiti Research Lab have posted a great video of their Eyebeam laser tagging session. Watch them tag a building with light!

Also, thanks to the Open Source Ethos of the GRL, they’ve posted the source code, and a How-to.  This project looks like loads of fun. Now, does anyone know a shady character who can get hold of a 60mw green laser pointer?

I came across this piece as a result of finding Dave Gorman’s hobby.

Handy-dandy little 5 minute synopsis of web2.0 concepts:

www.youtube.com/watch?v=6gmP4nk0EOE

Very useful to explain stuff I take for granted to people who might not even know what hypertext is. It manages to slip in the phrase “XML facilitates automated data exchange” too, which I liked in an otherwise layman friendly presentation. We’ll get them, by stealth if we have to!

To say it’s caused something of a buzz is an understatement and it’s frankly pretty brilliant that an Ethnographer has shown marketeers a thing or two about creating viral content. He hits the nail on the head when he identifies that the main reason for its popularity is probably the fact that the content speaks of and to the people responsible for spreading it. From 10 to 1.1 million views in just over 2 weeks.
