Stevie Wonder Drum Solo

Objection over-ruled!

Kobe jumps over a speeding car (Aston Martin)

Kobe has done two Nike-commercials. They're fake, but this one is pretty convincing visually.



Here are two amateur versions.

God jul!

Da går jeg fra jobben og kommer ikke tilbake før 29. desember.. Jule-lang-weekend altså.

Her er tidens beste julelåtfremførelse fra Ivar og Frode (Torhilds brødre).

Stop! It's my birthday!

Yes, it is true. Today is my birthday and I'm turning 28 (not 37 and not 50).

Adam Haynes' cool illustrations


I love Adam Haynes ad's for Nike! Few colurs, simple and detailed - and the feeling of depth!

Whatever happened to Mason Reese

Brett Ratners film school short film about a grown-up child star. It's got midgets and samurai swords in it.

Beards and what they're called


This is ofcourse basic mans-knowledge. For a deeper dive into the world of beard - check out beards.org.

Here are some old archive photos of my beards.





15 below

15 below is a really cool and good project.


It's basically a jacket that uses newspapers as insulation. It has lots of pockets and you stuff it with the paper you can get a hold of. The design is by the Canadian designer Lida Baday.

They got 15 celebs to sign a jacket each (Michael Caine, Nelly Furtado, Jon Stewart and Elton John amongst others) and people can join the eBay auction to get their hands on one of them.

And ofcourse the homeless will benefit from it. 3 000 jackets will be donated to people living on the street in cold places (where the temperature drops below fifteen).

Nokia N96 - Bruce Lee Ping Pong

It's not Chuck Norris - but he's got NunChucks - so he's ok.

Jizz In My Pants

Aj! En verdig oppfølger til Dick In A Box!

This guy has some pretty sweet photos.

I discovered him through the website BOOOOOOOM.com.

Exactidudes

Check out Exactitudes.com.


Quoted from the website:

Rotterdam-based photographer Ari Versluis and profiler Ellie Uyttenbroek have worked together since October 1994. Inspired by a shared interest in the striking dress codes of various social groups, they have systematically documented numerous identities over the last 14 years. Rotterdam's heterogeneous, multicultural street scene remains a major source of inspiration for Ari Versluis and Ellie Uyttenbroek, although since 1998 they have also worked in cities abroad.


They call their series Exactitudes: a contraction of exact and attitude. By registering their subjects in an identical framework, with similar poses and a strictly observed dress code, Versluis and Uyttenbroek provide an almost scientific, anthropological record of people's attempts to distinguish themselves from others by assuming a group identity. The apparent contradiction between individuality and uniformity is, however, taken to such extremes in their arresting objective-looking photographic viewpoint and stylistic analysis that the artistic aspect clearly dominates the purely documentary element.

TED is evolving, but Kenny still beats Spennys ass

When I first started watching TED-videos a couple of years ago, video on the net still felt sort of fresh. These days picture and sound in harmony isn't necessarily enough, but TED still feels crisp and delicious.



On the other half of the intelligent input vs. plain old entertainment, Kenny vs. Spenny has had a little revival in my world. After briefly introducing it to Axel, Matias and Paul a friday while having some beers, the flame was lit again. We saw four episodes and only made it downtown at 2 am or something. Very worth it.

Blogging is back - for now

Facebook just takes less effort and more people view my profile than my blog. And it feels like this thing takes more time. But I sort of miss it, so I'll give it another shot.

Favtape is great. Play all sorts of music, find lyrics and videos. And make mixtapes.

Skype is no longer necessary after Google released their video chat.

It's really cold in Bergen.

Like Obama, Lincoln also loved hip-hop.

Ivar fyller 30 og synger av full hals

I anledning av at Ivar (Torhilds storebror) fyller 30 år, digitaliserte vi på enkleste vis en familieklassiker. Projisert 8mm på vegg, filmet med mini-dv og smekket sammen i iMovie.

Ivar og Frode her altså. Julekveldsvisen (Julekveldsvisa?) utvikler seg i strid med mor og fars ønsker.

Interesting Hip-hop debate

A little more than a year ago, Don Imus was fired for saying some stupid, racist stuff on his morning show. This video wraps the whole thing up (the audio is a bit crap).

The interesting thing are the follow-ups. Black Tree Media has a really good series of documentary / debate videos called Hip Hop vs. America. Check it out. Here are the two first episodes (originally aired on BET).

Return of the Mixtape

I just created my own mixtape at muxtape.com. You (mister dj) can upload up to twelve mp3s and the virtual casette gets a unique url for you to share with friends and foes.


For the hard ware alternative - suck.uk.com has this updated casette/usb-mixtape which is pretty nice.

Running free in the South Park

Finally things are starting to happen. I haven't really followed South Park the last years, but this thing might just do it. The guys at Fox and the creators of the series have finally realized that there's no point in trying to keep people from watching the series online.

Watch all seasons, all episodes - chapter indexed and delicious

Sister Lottes Kaospilot Application

My sister is applying for the Kaospilots. How I miss that place.

Have you thought about joining the..

Anyone speak Ukrainian? This seems very persuasive, but I feel I could get even more out of it.

Obey Wan Kanobi

Drewbles13 did this one. I dedicate it to Calle.

Cool Tee and and finger dancin'

In these Guitar Hero-days, this should be a winner.



This is what Kanye likes, and I like finger breakin'. Finally something for the less athletic of us.

Krafttaket

This evening 'Krafttaket' premieres on NRK. It's the first show we've produced at Mediacircus since I started working here in September.

It's a battle between the second and third biggest city in Norway, in reducing Co2 emissions. From each of the cities we have a family, the biggest football club, two major companies and the mayor who represents the city administration.

Here are two teasers for the show.

Human Tetris

Good idea, nicely executed.
