Reverie Sound Revue: Arrows Video and Self Titled LP



I purchased Reverie Sound Revue's self-released EP years and years ago after seeing Lisa Lobsinger with attendant hairdo perform with Broken Social Scene. Recorded or live she simply has a gorgeous ethereal voice.

It's been a long while but they've finally released their first studio LP and the first of a series of online video blog tours from www.boompa.ca.

Check out the first video of their acoustic rendition of Arrows here.

Note: I'm patiently waiting for Boompa to disable their non-embed Vimeo code so I can repost all the vids.

"I've just finished up a chapter in my PhD about social play. Most of it is about online interaction, but quite a bit is about how to bring strangers together to make connections in public spaces.

Serendipitously, Iain just posted this clip thanks to Knotty's. If you don't get why social networks work, watch this."

You Had Me at Prairie Dog



Found this random image while researching rodents in Texas. One colony in Texas got up to 400 million individuals. No wonder.

Real G: Life size Gundam.





This is pretty sweet. Green Tokyo Gundam Project have decided to build a life size Gundam model in a park in Tokyo to celebrate Mobile Suit Gundam's 30th anniversary. Big thanks for my buddy Matt Stoffel for sending this my way.
