Gagging Order- Radiohead
// May 26th, 2009 // 1 Comment » // Art, Music & Poetry
I found a track that I’d never heard before, from my favorite band. It’s that little bit extra when you thought you’d taken everything long ago. “Gagging Order” by Radiohead.
Minty Fresh produced an unexpectedly brilliant mash-up of this track with Jay-Z.

Kutiman, an Isaeli funk musician and producer, puts together incredible funk, dub, jazz tracks mixed entirely from Youtube samples. Whatever you are thinking right now, you are wrong. It is so much better than that… Even now, your assumptions are drastically underreckoning. This is the best thing on the internet right now. Be blown away.

Destino
// November 28th, 2006 // No Comments » // Art, Music & Poetry
In 1945 collaboration began between the ubergenius Salvador Dalí and Walt Disney to produce an animated Dali- almost a tautology in itself. Financial woes intervened and all that was released was a precious 18 seconds of footage. In 1999, Walt Disney’s nephew, Roy Disney, unearthed the dormant project and with a team of 25 animators deciphered the storyboards and finished the timeless masterpiece.
(A Disney trailer for Destino)
I was blessed in early 2005 to see the full six-minute production and a collection of stills from the work- right here in the Netherlands. It was, and is, the most beautiful film I have ever seen. An animated Dali has a fourth dimension of fluidity- a dimension that is hinted at in every painting, but finally, here in these six delicate minutes, is brought to it’s ultimate creation.
