I don’t know if this is just f**kd, or if I love it and want one, or if the one thing inevitably leads to the other and I am in denial, or what. I can safely say you would not be wasting your time flipping over to Lost At E Minor to see the rest of them.
Poodle Art – New Design | Lost At E Minor: For creative people.
From the site: “The One Minutes were launched in 1998 and by now it has…an archive of 10000 video works…The One Minutes contribute to a rich and diverse picture of the world. ” Categories include city one minutes, wedding one minutes, train one minutes, etc. With a concept like this, I could have only hoped that the site would be noisy or inscrutable, enabling a clean getaway (to other online time wastage). Alas, it is irresistable. I read about it first on PSFK, natch.
The One Minutes | The One Minutes are videos precisely one minute long..
Love UQ, with its utter simplicity (“every time an Adobe application misbehaves I upload the error message”) and clever subtitle (“you can’t spell crash without CS”). Love that I found it by searching for help on an Adobe error message.
“In November of 1998 AMFTSWKESR moved to the midwestern United States to be close to a curly haired woman he met in a chat room for people with a shared interest in a commercially unsuccessful science fiction film from the 1980s.”

In case you have not come across Significant Objects yet, the loveliness is:
Joshua Glenn and Rob Walker share an interest in arbitrary significance, if I can call it that. They’ve written books about it. Now they are curating a project in which they procure items from thrift shops, commission fictional accounts of the items’ pasts, and then auction off the items avec stories on eBay (proceeds to the author).
I have been contemplating related ideas since I was a girl, when tossing emptied pop bottles into the designated receptacle felt harsh. My longtime fave Cintra Wilson has contributed to the project. In other words, I think I love these guys.
I love, in the bittersweet sense of the word love, looking at authentic 70s images. It makes me yearn for an existence with less worry. Sure, I know the worries come from knowledge, and I guess it’s good that we know more things to worry about today. Actually, I am willing to bet there wasn’t even less worry, just different worry, and I am really indulging in nostalgia for something that never even existed. Anyway, check out her socks:
Twas Coudal who showed me this ReadyMade surf. Thanks, CP.
Lures you with cute, then spanks you with dark. Always more impressive to me when it’s student work, as is the case here, specifically Sheridan students (at the time) Vera Brosgol and Jenn Kluska. Seen on Motionographer, who apparently saw it on Media Molecule. Web-go-round.
Another good lil mini-interview on Fecal Face. Her namecheck is awesome, and includes King Kong for instance. The Grizzly Bear video should be interesting.
Booooooom! referenced this video recently, which truly is captivating (visually more than musically, for me). And it reminded me of something else, which I’ll tack on afterward.
Interactive art and robotics is so where it’s at.
I am still a sucker for this subject matter, and dude nails it. Brought to our attention – so often the case – by Wooster Collective.
