A very cool ad from Japan (I think) about creativity and children:

I don’t want to spoil the surprise, so just watch it.

Online Mix Tapes

If you’re as old as I am, you remember mix tapes. You’d spend a bunch of time copying songs from cassettes or albums onto a blank cassette tape, and then give them to your steady or to your buddies. It was a lot of fun, and a great way to share new music.

Now, there’s an online site where you can create your own mix tapes and share them with friends. It’s called MixWit.com, and it’s a free site. Here’s a quick mix tape I made with some of the music I’ve been listening to lately:

The picture is from a trip my buddies and I took to Cancun way back in 1988, right in the meaty part of the mix tape phenomenom.

10 MPH - Great Independent Film

My wife and I just checked out 10 MPH, a great independent film from Hunter Weeks and Josh Caldwell. In the film, Hunter and Josh decide to drop out of their corporate life and discover America by traveling across the country on a Segue at 10 mph. This offbeat documentary was a hit with Michele, who is not really a big fan of indie films or documentaries.

We rented the film from NetFlix, and it was well worth the time spent watching it last night. I enjoyed it so much, I wanted to share it with you. Here’s a trailer:

Check out their site, and you can have $1 donated to their next film venture by signing up for OnStage.com via the link on their site. Support independent film and give yourself some choice. These two filmmakers are a couple of guys to watch over the next few years.
