Here is the original "Be My baby" video. Always loved this song I was 12 years old and lusted after the lead singer. Watch this video then go to this Boing-Boing link where a guy gets his afro cut and lip syncs to it, very weird but compelling.

From: Make: Don't remember what the name of the movie was but Bruce Willis is caught by the bad guys while wandering around the back of train yard.

From: Boing Boing, If you ever doubted, even for a second, that non-Newtonian goo (e.g., cornstarch and water) is from a totally different (and infinitely preferable) universe, behold! Cornstarch paste + subwoofer == proof positive.

The BeFunky web site has a web-based utility that lets you upload a photograph and after adjusting some settings turn it into a cartoon. The site is tied to one that allows you to turn you art work into a t-shirt, coffee mug, etc. I just used a screen capture program to snag the image and send it to freinds. The image above is of my grandson Timmy.

From: Boing-Boing The sheet-music staff for the last minute of the fourth movement of Beethoven student Ferdinand Ries’s Second Symphony — those five lines on which the clef signs and notes and rests sit — becomes a roller coaster.

In 1958 the BBC established the Radiophonic Workshop to explore and produce innovative sounds for radio programming. The group's unconventional approach to sound synthesis and arrangement poised them at the forefront of music technology - making them the envy of many pioneering musicians. Looking back at some of their har ...

This is one of the most amazing Synth projects I have seen. The Blog entry has excellent details and photos on the construction and fabrication process. This is impressive considering it started as a case a friend gave him.
