Laz Rojas is a genius


A scene from my comedy screenplay “Flakes”, taken from my one-man demo tape in which I portray over 100 characters in scenes from my screenplays. Written, performed, directed, produced, and edited by me.

On YouTube, he has a bunch of clips from this incredible demo tape, and some interesting Los Angeles nature videos. The one man acting thing seems like a gimmick at first, but it starts to bend your mind… His homepage also has some cool Star Trek pixel art, and Wolfenstein 3D scenarios amoung other things (this stuff earns him major Internets credibility..) I really can’t believe how multi-talented this guy is!! It’s so exciting! Check out his cast of characters by clicking “Acting.”

Widescreen negative space

When I was living in Richmond, VA I had endless amounts of time to devote to obsessive activities, i.e. cross-stitching. I also had cable TV. I spent a good 4 months channel surfing in search of advertisements and shows shot on widescreen or 16:9 that place product identity in the negative space.

Here is a short documentary thing that I made about this trend.

Index of /secret

So I found a bunch of secret open directories by searching on Google. It’s pretty funny the array of stuff people are stashing away, and nothing’s too scandalous (well the first one is wierd, but so is its main domain — eep!) Drawings of Sonic the hedgehog, random pictures, porno junk, passwords (?!)… My favorite is this band has some sample MP3′s on their main website, but in their /secret directory they keep the whole album! Man, Google goes wherever it wants.

Also was just searching for any open directories, which I find to be really magical (in their plain-ness).. Here’s a search for open directories with JPGs. To search for other stuff just change the first word in the search box (to “midi” or “dogs” or something.)

Finally, searched for “Untitled Document”, which, with 66,800,000 results, I’d bet is the most popular website title of all time :-)

your sudoku is solved

December 25th of last year I posted what I thought was “the hardest sudoko ever” on my chillsesh.

Eight months later I recieved this email.

Bugs trapped inside screens playlist



I found 16 different people posting videos of insects stuck inside of their computer screens (not on them.) I can’t believe there were so many of these — I guess if it happened to me, it’d be exciting enough to get out my camera ?? I dunno. Well, I imagine these people sitting there, staring at their screens all day long, doing Myspace or whatever, and then suddenly some little dude walks right on top of whatever they’re looking at! I’m really into the relationship of the cursor, the bug, and the peoples’ index fingers as they poke at their screens to no avail :-)

(And the Google one reminds me of JMB’s awesome recent Lord of the flies page)

3d architectural renderings w/ chilin clip art people

I really like it when architects put people into their 3d renderings of buildings, like some prophetic vision of what the future will be like, virtual people just hanging out in the planned building. I especially like it when they post these images in front of the actual construction sites. For the most part the people are just photographic 2d clipart plopped onto less-than-photo-real 3d renderings, which is why they look so awesome. (I’ll throw a couple more I’ve found into the secret stash…)
