  • Almost 7 Minutes of Unalloyed Bliss


    What’s Opera Doc? (1957, 57.2MB, 6:52 min)

    Remember the tingle down the spine when the first song kicks in in

    the musical episode of Buffy?
    Well, here’s the template from 1957.
    Cartoons featuring talking and singing animals performing opera simply
    do not get better than this.

    Wishing you all a very happy holiday season…

  • The Story of Stuff


    The Story of Stuff (2008, 54.1MB, 21:20)

    The Story of Stuff with Annie Leonard is a twenty

    minute video about waste, recycling, corporations,
    and sustainability. Even a radical like me finds it
    occasionally heavy-handed, but then, this is serious
    stuff. Nicely done, worth the twenty minutes you’d
    otherwise spend watching crap TV, no?

  • Constellation – Covent Garden Winter Lights


    Constellation (2008, 17MB, 3 min.)

    “Commissioned by Covent Garden, United Visual Artists lit up the market

    halls of Covent Garden with a responsive light installation. Launched as
    the flagship piece of the winter season program at Covent Garden the
    installation featured 600 custom-designed mirrored LED tubes hanging
    above the entire Covent Garden market space.


    The volumetric arrangement of the tubes created a canvas in which three
    dimensional light formations were made possible. Constellation was also
    individually controllable using a custom-designed control panel, giving the
    installation an intimate connection with the public.”

    United Visual Artists are a British-based collective whose current practice spans permanent architectural installation, live performance and responsive installation.

  • Aleksandra Domanovic – La Biennale (Dictum Ac Factum)


    La Biennale (Dictum Ac Factum) (2009, 63MB, 1:40 min)

    Nicely made, kind of de Chirico-ish in its

    sense-of-place-that-never-was & the way it
    haunts you long after viewing, this piece from
    Aleksandra Domanovic featured as part of the
    Padiglione Internet of the 2009 Venice Biennale.
    Oh –Dictum ac Factum – ‘No Sooner Said than Done’, apparently.

    modern life (2005, 3.6MB, 3:13 min)


    grass spider (2005, 6.1MB, 2:55 min)

    2005 work from Lewis LaCook.

    He seems to have dropped out of sight.
    A shame, he made startling and splendid work in a number of media.

    Update: I looked – he’s here and .

    Good.
