TRON: Legacy vs. Inception
Posted in: Inspiration, Music
Jack Conte is probably best known for being one half of the YouTube sensation, Pomplamoose, but he also has a large body of independent work. I particularly liked this mash-up of two of my favorite recent soundtracks: Daft Punk’s Tron: Legacy and Hanz Zimmer’s Inception.

Where Is My Mind?
Posted in: Film, Inspiration, Music
“Where is My Mind” is one of my favorite Pixies songs. Some guy called The Petebox has done a really unique cover using only an acoustic guitar, his voice and an RC-50 loop station. I liked this version so much, I downloaded it and threw it on my iPhone.

Oklahoma State University graphic design student, Jacob Gilbreath, created a stunning piece of animated typography using Conan O’Brien‘s farewell speech from the Tonight Show as the backdrop. Amazing work for a student. I’d hire him.
