Some YouTube Things:
May. 28th, 2013 12:05 pm1) I've been posting about this under a custom filter... Here's an update that's public:
For most of May, I've been wrestling with the new version of Windows Movie Maker (They've eliminated all my favorite title animations! D:), to make a video of a satirical Disability Protest song (to the tune "Irish Washerwoman"): The Very Sad Tale of Monsters in Our Town
( Read more... )
I briefly thought about putting a "preface" into the video, explaining about the etymologies and such, But I've since decided to make it a separate piece, and uploading it as a reply to this one (and vice versa?)
2) Watched this video (a TEDtalk) before bed last night, and it made me happy in all my happy places:
David Christian: The history of our world in 18 minutes
His opening gambit is all about how entropy is the central law of the universe, and then goes on to spell out all the ways the universe goes to great length to create order and complexity... Also, he basically states my belief that it's storytelling that's essential to humanity, rather than language, per se.
3) YouTube is going to switch everyone over to their new channel design in 8 days, whether we like it or not (I do not, but)... I got prompted to upload some channel art... So now, I'm contemplating making a channel banner as my next visual art project -- something monstrous. :)
