The Morning Benders were fantastic.
They opened with Wet Cement, included Waiting on a War, and finished with 3 minutes of beautiful noise.

Americana captured. “There are no actors, no interviews and nothing is staged. It’s only real people living their everyday lives. The Americans is a look at who Americans really are and what they really do.”

The Acorn - Restoration A bunch of crazy creatures hanging out in the woods. Reminds that I want to get out to Hoffman Hills for a hike, or at least around the block for a walk.

And finally, Everything. This is episode 11 of the wonder that is Everything (a collection of short, creative, odd-ball videos). I posted episode 10 a while ago and I still think this brilliant. The bit about the barber shop (at 2:45) by Danny Jelinek (who seems to run this whole thing) is probably my favorite part.

Kitten thing
There are a few prints of kitty cats dressed up in people clothes over at Little Paper Planes right now. I am not going to post a picture of them because I don’t really get into the whole cat craze, but I know a lot of other people do.This will have to do: I probably should also take this opportunity to share the Celestial Cats series, designed by Zippora Lux. It’s kind of old news...

Real Estate - Suburban Dogs This is pretty hip, but I like Real Estate and I love that this was filmed at an actual real estate company’s Christmas party. It’s like seeing all of the awkward holiday cards come to life. (link)

Free mixtape - Other People's Music #4
CLICK TO DOWNLOAD. It’s finally the weekend, so kick back with this fantastic mix of Other People’s Music. A Different Place was put together by Johanne Swanson (who just happens to be back in town this weekend) and it is low-key and perfect for this almost-fall weather.

Typewar - Font identity game →
There are 10 levels and it does get a little harder as you go along, but really it is pretty easy. The site is a little glitchy- so whenever it gives you and error message it might mess you up a little. Happy Friday afternoon.

The making of: Zeus - Marching Through Your Head The video. This makes it even more impressive. All these stop motion videos require patience that I can’t even imagine. Kudos to directors Adam Makarenko and Alan Poon!
