Leapday Linky

This is probably my favourite video on the internets, evar. Watch it. If you’ve seen it before, watch it again. The cats are great.
Via some Wellybloggers, a mesmerising short film portrait of Wellington by Massey Design student Richard Sidey, his showpiece at the end-of-04 exhibition Exposure (which is always worth a look if you’re in Welly in December). It’s an awardwinning film, and watching it you’ll see why. Timelapse reveals new rhythms in familiar spaces. It’s wicked. Music by Dubtown’s percussionistas Strike!, and also featuring calligraphy by Stan Chan.
Via Svend, a deeply weird true-life mystery – nine experienced skiers, out camping in the mountains, who didn’t make it through the night. But what the details suggest about what happened will give you shivers.
Via Hottieperm, Stuff White People Like. It misses as often as it hits, and “white people” seems to mean “urban liberals”, but its dogged commitment to that one joke is pleasing to me.
I wish you a Very Leapy Friday.

  6. That website seems to say “white people” when it means “hipsters”.
    It also doesn’t realise that Mos Def has been out of favour for a couple of years now, partly for releasing two crap albums in a row but mostly for doing a song called The Rapeover which contains lyrics that have been deemed by hipsters to be homophobic:
    “Quasi-homosexuals be running this rap shit”
    and anti-Semetic:
    “Tall Israelis be running this rap shit”
    Hipsters are over hip-hop now. Check Pitchfork Media’s Best Albums of 2007 list if you want proof.
    OT: My comment can kick all your comments’ ass, bitches! One at a time or all together!
