Dueling Carls
http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/eightface/~3/3BJpINDLwzY/
Talking Carl is an iPhone app that will record some audio and play it back at a higher pitch. This is what happens when you place two of them beside each other.
There’s something about this video that had me doing a deep belly laugh. It’s probably the slight pause before it becomes unintelligible. It reminds me of watching Gir from Invader Zim

An awesome stop-motion Lego homage to 8-bit video games. It took more than fifteen hundred hours of moving bricks around and photographing them.

Lucas on film making
http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/eightface/~3/RtDiOxDWaXM/
Michael Heilemann dug up an interview with George Lucas from 1971, shortly after Warner Brothers had finished butchering THX 1138. At this point, you can see that he’s pretty disillusioned with Hollywood, and how that pushed him towards the creation of Lucasfilm.

Influencing web design
http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/eightface/~3/YGRE1MEz0bs/
Jason Santa Maria’s lecture about The Influence of Print Design on the web. This is kind of where I was headed with my master’s thesis about the changing online newspaper, but I felt the time crunch and didn’t really do it properly.

Obama and the Wild Things
http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/eightface/~3/6ue2CtYwqao/
Barrack Obama reads Where the Wild Things Are. There are so many awesome things about this video, including the fact that he’s reading it upside down. You can’t help but smile.

Changing publishing for the better
http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/eightface/~3/iOPLRecKPkI/
Six Projects That Could Change Publishing for the Better is Michael Tamblyn’s presentation from the BookNet TechForum outlining projects, changes and initiatives that could help change the industry. It’s forward thinking and funny to boot, definitely worth watching if you’re at all interested in the book industry.
