05. Sam Winston : http://www.samwinston.com/ 

“Sam Winston creates sculpture, drawings and books that question our understanding of words both as carriers of messages, and as information itself. His work combines a playful and meticulous assimilation of contemporary information – statistics, data, computer programming – with canonical works such as Shakespeare and the dictionary. He is interested in childhood and story-telling and draws us into the underlying subtexts that often exist beneath what might initially appear as ‘pure’ texts. His work draws upon many approaches and forms, often applying meticulous layers of found text which are reordered through indexical categories. Through drawing, cutting, folding and typography, complex ideas emerge in new work that seems clear, logical and completely necessary amidst the saturation of financial and media text that is around us and often impossible to process.”

06. SAMARIS (Iceland) "Goda tungl"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_pKuzdMFE8k&feature=player_embedded

Think Björk meets Fever Ray.

Enjoy & take care

04. Jackson and His Computerband "G.I. Jane (Fill Me Up)" 

http://www.nowness.com/day/2013/10/31/3434/jackson-and-his-computerband-g-i-jane--fill-me-up 

An animated music video clip by Mrzyk & Moriceau with VERY EXPLICIT CONTENT !

05. The Wikidrummer 

It’s one thing to record audio of a drummer and then digitally synthesize the reverberation to mimic various environments, but it’s another thing entirely to film a drummer actually playing in all of those environments and then stitch it together into a single track. That’s exactly what Audio Zero and Wikidrummers did with drummer Julien Audigier who played the same drum pattern in a variety of indoor and outdoor locations to show the effects of natural reverb, sometimes even blending multiple tracks into a single shot. Amazing!!!

And thanks to grenadine et tagada for sharing this link :)

06. Franklin Roosevelt in 1933

The whole video is interesting and more particularly the excerpt between 10:48 and 11:34.

Enjoy & take care
