Tunes: Nemesis – Twin Lizard V4 (Feat David Downey and Texture)

Full disclosure: I edited this video. So now you know. A long time ago, in a county far, far away, Gaz Bailey of Twin Lizard asked me if I’d make a video for one of his tracks Nemesis. He already had the concept (which you can read more about here) and a pretty unique way of garnering the footage and wanted me to put my editing skills to use. Loving the track (and the band) as I do, I could hardly say no. Fast forward 18 months and you have the below. All being well it’ll be selected to be in Lincoln Shorts this year too (their twitter is @LincolnShorts if you feel like putting in a good word for me ). Anyway, enough of my rubbish. It’s all about the music. And the video…

Take one classic painting, mix it up with a classic rock track, and you have the new mash-up apparently. Or at least vimeo artist Sebastian Cosor would have you believe.

Awesome BBC Title fail

Bad Giraffe — Sun, 13 Nov 2011 14:25:32 +0000

So over in the United of States, a ~~bit~~ LOT of a scandal has broken out over the alleged cover up of an alleged sex case at Penn State University:

Mr [Mike] McQueary has said he witnessed former assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky sexually abusing a young boy.

Mr McQueary is head coach and failed to report the abuse to the authorities. Granted, that’s not funny, but when the BBC fails like it did in the still shot below, it’s gonna make me chuckle:
