Not a true lightshow, but something cool nonetheless.
Besides the X/Y pad on the padKontrol, another cool feature is that each individual pad is configured by default to light up upon being pressed.
Did you know that you could make those pads light up by themselves?
All you need to do is configure your sequencer to send midi [...]
I had briefly considered the idea of starting a video podcast about Logic Pro after seeing how little coverage it got in any the iTunes podcast directory. Any podcasts I did find were more to promote tutorial videos for software. I’m not an expert on Logic Pro, but at least it would’ve gotten the ball [...]
I caught this off Boing-Boing. It’s an actor named Brian Atene screening testing for Full Metal Jacket.
He starts off babbling about his schooling and then says that Stanley Kubrick is “one of the greatest directors of all time, although not quite as good as Michael Curtiz, the director of The Seahawk.”
Also, he’s a trekkie.

About 6 years ago The Minibosses were the first real known band doing videogame tunes. They’re still doing it, but so are a slew of other bands. Only real [...]

My brother let me borrow Edmond.
Basically, William H. Macy plays a character that, after seeing a tarrot card reader, believes his life is a sham, and tries to find himself (or get laid, however you want to look at it) in the seedy underground of New York City. In the process, he only begins to [...]
They use the same logic to justify what they do.
Bush Administration Action: Invade Iraq to remove Saddam Hussein because he was responsible for 9/11, get weapons of mass destruction and fight war against terror. Result: After bombing, invading and creating a hostile nation, no WMDs found. Saddam not involved in 9/11. Iraq in civil unrest. Justification: Saddam’s a [...]
About a year ago I went to this 2-day marketing seminar in Vermont.
The first day was pretty good. I was able to make a schedule comprosing of the 2 sessions going on during each segment. Some stuff was about analyzing ads, another one was about making sure your marketing efforts don’t lack a call-to-action, etc.
