iamamiwhoami suckami

iamamiwhoami’s new video y is an artificial masterpiece. An untrained eye would not catch its hidden pop culture references. The music graces my ear like a fried swordfish wrapped in rubberbands. The amount of snow needed to create the white levels in this video could fill the pontiac silverdome!! Let me take you through this experience frame by frame….

The beginning of the video. I know this because theres no music and nothing is happening yet. Good thing I am patient and can wait 1 min 30 seconds while I check my facebook during this part.

Visually, this scene featuring toilet water in a tank serves as a major incongruent distraction and kinda reminds me of the delete key in Final Cut Pro.

Newt in Aliens. (1986)

An Aliens Fan Vid On Youtube (2010)

- Someone finally responded to my request about Celine Dion being trapped in mucus.

After carefully reviewing the kinetic movements of this Knight, I have come to the conclusion that it is none other than oscar winner and australian X-men star, Hugh Jackman.

Actually this video is a sexist overview of the reproductive cycle. NO!!!!!!, Its a commentary on the oil spill with Alice in Wonderland’s white queen. I was wrong, was I wrong?, all along, was I wrong? Watch for yourself.

New Comment System

I finally got around to enabling a better comment system. You should be able to login using your Facebook, Twitter, Open ID (aol etc), and Yahoo accounts.

I guess nobody wanted their 24k gold Lux edition workstation. Maybe having artists set fire to their products didn’t work out either.

Facebook Bad For Music Industry, Creativity.

The shift to Facebook as the prime source of social networking is a disaster for music, art, and culture. Myspace, while a corporate goon of a website filled with advertisements, at least allows for a canvas of creativity and open networking, and even (mp3) media uploads. Despite a nasty front page it was decent. The freedom to control your own profile and content was a source of individuality. Facebook, with its privacy concerns and violations replaced individuality with conformity. Conformity is no place for art and music cultures to thrive and evolve their style.

Another setback for artists is that only people within your social network will find and “LIKE” your music. The system itself makes it harder to find friends with similiar interests, which could have grown your fanbase. Every artist becomes an indie artist. Google will not index your facebook profile very well because the friends added are only internal links and not highly valued external links. Facebook is no way to promote art and culture. Nothing new will evolve from it.

Do you want a boring, closed, elitist, harvard born social net weaving itself into the fabric of your individuality and music? Its the formula for stale culture with no change. Thats not the essence of art and music. Mark Zuckerburg is a sociopath. During a recent televised interview, he hardly blinked. He’s definitely not concerned with the growth of music and art culture.
Its too bad the masses have settled on closed circuit convenience and conformity. The first website to offer both convenience and cultural evolution will prevail over Facebook and usher in a new era of musical connection.
