Seasick Steve
Is a real American, trainhopping, jailbirding, cowboying, carnival working, migrant farm picking, occassional tramping, near-fatal heart attack surviving old hobo playing raw blues on selfmade guitars with only two strings.

Google Earth updates
We just downloaded the new Google Earth update with fancy new 3d features. There’s even, quote “a unknown feature that allows you to jump from building to building like you are Spiderman”. Think about how enhanced this product will be in, lets say 50 years?

Break Machine - Street Dance
We bought this 12″ when it came out in 1983, but we remember we doubted a long time before actually buying the disc, since it was pretty daft then if you know what we mean. But rarely hiphop vinyl came to that metropool called Tilburg at that time, so we gave it a go. Too bad we don’t have it anymore because one of us sold it at Tommy’s second hand shop some 20 years ago alongside many other great 12″s to get money for a certain slot mahine addiction… asshole!

Laurent Garnier @ Cafe d’Anvers
Last friday a we went to good old Cafe d’Anvers, one of Belgiums most (in)famous clubs, to witness one of the last dj sets ever (4hrs!) of one of the greatest dj’s ever: Laurent Garnier. It was minus 13 degrees outside while inside it was hot as hell… Great night. Keep on watching o the end, then you see why.

Shreds
Need some laughing on a monday morning like this? Search for ’shreds’ on youtube. Pretty old but still hilarious. Here are two of our favourites.

Theo Jansen
Dutch artist Theo Jansen demonstrates the amazingly lifelike kinetic sculptures he builds from plastic tubes and lemonade bottles. His creatures are designed to move — and even survive — on their own. (thanks Vio!)

Glenn Brown
English painter Glenn Brown always creates these complex illusionary images made of thick layers of oil paint. He was nominated for the Turner prize in 2000.

Go and see: There will be blood
Absolutely the best movie of 2008. A story about family, greed, religion, and oil, centered around a turn-of-the-century Texas oil entrepeneur in the early days of the business. Just watch that trailer and hear the intriging voice of Daniel Day Lewis, who we think is becoming the greatest actor of this decade, say: “Ladies and gentleman, if I say I’m an oil man.. you will agree.” Mixed with the atmospheric film music made by Johnny Greenwood, lead guitarist in Radiohead, it gives us shivering moments. 6 out of 5. (Thanks Rod!)

Whopper Virgins
Pretty lame ass idea from Burger King for a viral to make the company look hip and cute: Let 3rd world people who never have encountered a hamburger in their lives eat one and film that! Ha ha ha!
On the other hand.. it is truely a pretty tasty piece of cow and they came this way earlier with their Babi Pangang, Sushi or Gebakken Merelvleugeltjes. -

Pictures of 2008
The year two thousand and eight in photographic retrospect. Some astonishing pictures. Some bloody, but you will be warned for that.

Dr. Imoto’s water crystals
photo 1: Adolph Hitler
Photo 2: Mother Theresa
Japanese scientist Dr. Imoto took pictures of water molecules after they were exposed to all kinds of music, feelings or even thoughts. The outcome was that the molecules looked different every time, although it was the same water. For example water put in a bottle with a label “I kill you” turned out pretty disgusting. The molecules in the bottle with a label “Thank you” were crystal clear. Weird shit, innit?

Immersion
Photographer Robbie Cooper shows just how focused young video-game players can be. Or better said apathic?
