San Francisco Creative Mornings: 2011/03 — Mike Monteiro | F*ck You. Pay Me.
Mike Monteiro, the head of Mule design, explains the importance of being confident, getting paid, and having contracts and a lawyer. An excellent presentation.
“The whole joy of hearing Minaj swoop through a bunch of different registers, for me, in this verse, is that all of them are the same person making the same point. They’re not in dialogue with one another!”
How native-language subtitled music videos dramatically increased literacy in rural India. And there's a local professor here promoting the same SLS ('Same-language Subtitles') idea. Would be nice to talk to him.
A video by fiilmaker Andrea Dorfman and poet/singer/songwriter Tanya Davis.
"Society is afraid of alonedom, like lonely hearts are wasting away in basements, like people must have problems if, after a while, nobody is dating them. but lonely is a freedom that breaths easy and weightless and lonely is healing if you make it."
This is absolutely beautiful. "Brilliant Noise takes us into the data vaults of solar astronomy. After sifting through hundreds of thousands of computer files, made accessible via open access archives, Semiconductor have brought together some of the sun's finest unseen moments. These images have been kept in their most raw form, revealing the energetic particles and solar wind as a rain of white noise. This grainy black and white quality is routinely cleaned up by NASA, hiding the processes and mechanics in action behind the capturing procedure. Most of the imagery has been collected as single snapshots containing additional information, by satellites orbiting the Earth. They are then reorganised into their spectral groups to create time-lapse sequences. The soundtrack highlights the hidden forces at play upon the solar surface, by directly translating areas of intensity within the image brightness into layers of audio manipulation and radio frequencies."
"A collaborative music/spoken word project." A collection of YouTube videos of people playing various instruments all in the B-flat key. Start and stop and fade them each in any way at any time. This is awesome.
"Success is how many shining eyes I have around me." And that old chestnut about never saying anything to someone that you wouldn't want to be your last communication with them. Platitudes, yes, but very good ones. The second inspirational music-related video in as many days to have moved me to tears (yesterday's Sigur Rós MoMA concert being the first).
