A Rolling Sculpture Ready For The Chronicles Of Riddick

Rafik Kaissi and his unique RK Bearing

Indian Larry on one of the Biker Buildoff's on Discovery Channel talked about how building custom motorcycles employed all of the arts into one. The use of engineering, fabrication, design, painting and sculpture, all working together as a higher art form. To be honest, he was completely right. Not every bike was made to be loved by everyone and nor should a bike always be made to fit into some category. There are enough builders doing that, but to break new ground and do something that is a unique vision, whether or not its meant to be a daily freeway rider is a true iconoclast and free thinker.

The Shazam Effect Is Ruining The Future of Music

Because of the Shazam Effect, lackeys such as Justin Bieber get too much radio airplay

More often than not we hear from folks and they enjoy telling us about great new bands and or what is wrong with the music industry. Approaching an industry of this scale and speaking that direct about what is wrong, is as easy as telling Californians to not worry, desalination plants are going to save your water problems. It is just not that simple.

On the other hand, lets look at things from the perspective of pure entertainment. Many folks are just passive music fans. If its on the radio and its got a good beat, it is decent entertainment for the car ride from point A to point B. Corporate radio knows this all too well and plays directly to what listeners want and now have algorithms and mountains of data to back up what is the ideal music to be played. Does this challenge our senses or move the collective coolness of the needle towards a band that will shape culture for the future such as the likes of Led Zeppelin? Hardly imaginable these days, yet there has been a scientific study all about this scenario and its called the Shazam Effect.

Without An Interesting Story, There Is No Film

New video from Skrillex produced by Ivan Herrera

The magic of film making is absurdly simple. Without an interesting story, there is nothing to shoot. Context, texture, atmosphere, characters and quite a few more elements coming together with a great story, help us to define a moment in time. Having a favorite movie, actor or director is a way for us an individuals to connect to a larger storyline in which we can live out any idea we can place ourselves into. One aspect that brings great viewing satisfaction especially for music videos occurs when a filmmaker takes liberties and builds a narrative out of the context of a story. Shooting a short film scene for scene around lyrics makes a video feel shallow and rehearsed compared to breathing fresh air into an already present storyline.
