The Greatest Things. Ever!

Ok so maybe that title is an exaggeration, but recently I've stumbled upon some fun random things online, that I think relate to our class very well! You should check them out!

First, is this ad by Sapporo. This reminded me of our crankies, and the challenges presented by creating a rotating image that remained interesting as it scrolled by. I think it's pretty astounding!



Next is this fun series of "notes by Chris" that are quite hilarious, and to me seem like a clever derive!

Anyways, I think these are fun little procrastination opportunities. Enjoy!

Bjork sound inspiration

Vocal sound-scape/"planet" as an option for initiating the revival once at Bridge Square...a la the bar scene in this Bjork video.

Fabulous Busta

Busta Rhymes is definitely fertile material for costume inspiration.

Flash Mob

If we're looking for a song that already has a dance, Just Dance for Wii has lots of easy dances that can be found on YouTube.

Wheels on Fire


I took a detour to Hot Sam's Antiques on the way home, I was looking mostly at WHEELS

Because our HEARSE needs wheels, and I though it might be easier to find some than make them

They have lots of cool junk at Hot Sam's including this old wagon named "Lulu"

And a random lone side-car, which I thought was cool


And an entire trailer spilling over with LPs??

Oh, and a Rocketship...




More random junk with wheels...


Oh, and also two giant train-cars. Among other things. Hot Sam's is 20 minutes from St. Olaf off the 35, so I think it might be worth it if a team of us went up there and scouted for junk. Anyone interested?
