“We are all humping, we need to hump together”

Der Humpink

This has to be one of the most random and cool documentaries I have seen in a long time. The movie follows a group of homeless men on the north side of Vancouver who went from riding their shopping carts down hill from house to house collecting bottles, to creating a new extreme sport of downhill shopping cart racing at speeds of 70km per hour. These guys wreck, break bones and even die blowing past cars down the steep winding hills of Vancouver.

This is a pretty amazing art project on the Le Saint Louis bridge in Paris, France. The artist and his volunteers cover the bridge and walls surrounding the river with piece after piece of paper wheat pasted onto the old stones. Once completed a whole different mood and feeling coming to the banks of this river. But after only a few weeks the beauty turns to waste as it floats down the sewers into the river and out to sea.

Be-Mag did a quick 10 seconds story with Nimh’s Oli Short during the Winterclash. Read up on his plans for the year and what he had to say about the Winterclash. Go here to read the story.

This is a rad live video recording of Bad Brains performing Attitude in 1979. Audio isn’t perfect but rad clip none the less. The following excerpt is from wikipedia:

Bad Brains is an American hardcore punk band formed in Washington, D.C. in 1977. They are widely regarded as among the pioneers of the genre, though the band’s members objected to the term “hardcore” to describe their music.

Originally formed as a jazz fusion ensemble under the name Mind Power, Bad Brains developed a very fast and intense punk rock sound known as hardcore punk and was often played faster and more emphatically than the music of many of their peers. The unique factor of the band’s music was the fact that they played more complex rhythms than that of other hardcore punk bands, also adapting non-punk style riffs/solos into their songs. They were also an adept reggae band, in a sort of Jekyll-and-Hyde arrangement, while later recordings featured elements of other genres. Bad Brains are also notable as religious followers of the Rastafari movement.

Well I woke up this morning to this amazing email from Jon Elliott with accompanying video: Dude! Mischka decided to pull a nug of shit out of her litter box this morning and hoist it into the bathtub. Then proceeded to play with it (sounded like an old rattle alarm) until it dissolved into a mud mixture at the base of the tub. I thought cats were clean. I’m going to stick her in one of these.

The official ramble pages of our very own online gossip guru and finder of everything awesome Cory Casey. This is the first installment of Cory’s Closet: This is were The cry of Wilbur’s heart….this is the highly anticipated music video from the debut album of Tamil Nadu vocal chanting superstar Wilbur Sargunaraj. All I have to say about this all is WTF.

Insane video of French Anti-Terrorist police training the K-9 units in hostage situations. I’ve never been a fan of police dogs in Europe, they used to scare the piss out of me as a child, especially at the airport in Frankfurt when you used to see two cops with sub-machine guns and one with a German Shepard! Anyway I would not want to be on the other end of that bite! Poor bastards…

I have always been a huge fan of Legos. I can not even imagine the hours I have spent in my life building amazing buildings and castles just to destroy them in an epic war. I always dreamed to work for a company building huge structures made from Legos. These people actually are living the dream. Bjarke Ingels Group’s LEGO Towers project built over five weeks using 250,000 pieces of LEGO bricks.

My friend Mike Leff posted this on his facebook wall and I thought it was pretty rad. Green numbers are new samples, white ones are samples that have already been triggered. Enjoy…
