This is probably the funniest video I’ve ever seen about the “simplicity” of changing over to the new Digital Television Broadcast Air Signal that is coming, by mandate, in February of 2009.
One of my students sent this to me and told me that it reminded them of one of my tech. classes (this year) where I showed them how “easy” it was to connect a laptop to a television or LCD projector… Some of them didn’t agree with me about the “easy part” after I went through how to connect via VGA, or S-Video, or Composite, or Component, or God forbid -RF modulation!!! We still have a way to go with regard to making some of these things “easy”, and LESS cables would be nice! Enjoy the video!
Hat-tip: Thanks to Alex Frazier for pointing this one out to us!
Comment:
Some people just have too much time on their hands AND too much fun! This song is an amalgamation of sounds found on a Windows XP or 98 machine. It’s hysterical, especially when you hear the Windows Shutdown sound…well., crash! This song was created using the very popular and FREE MODplug tracker software. The concept of this video/song is pretty clever. How about a MAC one…anyone?

This guy is amazing. I certainly do not believe this is a fake. His technique is amazing and his musicianship is superb! Share this with your students who think they’ve accomplished something by beating Guitar Hero on “Expert”…

This guy is unbelievable! He is using in-line skates and has arranged a series of bottles with different amounts of water in them to make different pitches when the strikers attached to his in-line skates hit them as he goes by! He sets the tempo via his speed and a “piano scroll” type music reality show begins. It’s Mozart’s Symphony #40, only produced in a way I’m sure Mozart NEVER imagined. This truly is amazing!
