OS X desktop as a music video May 10. 080
A digital filmmaker named Dennis Liu has made an amazing video for The Bird And The Bee’s lovely song “Again & Again”. The set? His Mac desktop. You sort of have to see it for yourself to understand; luckily, Dennis has dropped it on YouTube so that the world can see it in low-res hi-res glory:
This is just awesome. Kudos to Dennis Liu for such a creative approach. (via TUAW and MacRumours Forum).
See How it Feels Apr 26. 075
The ‘See How it Feels’ BMW ad has been airing for a few weeks now here in the UK, and no doubt elsewhere around the globe. Each time it’s on it never fails to draw me in and capture my attention. Simply brilliant.
Kudos to Glassworks for their work on this.

Julia Roberts in SPAM scandal! Nov 07. 050
I keep getting this SPAM, perhaps once or twice a week. Unusually it actually brings a small smile to my face, not becuase I understand what it’s going on about, but just becuase I think the illustration is hilarious!
Maybe there are more in the series, featuring Julia Roberts unusually seated on other animals, who knows.
So come one, out of all that junk mail you get every day there must be the odd one which amuses.
