Pastors who read sermon notes from an iPad. « Stuff Christians Like – Jon Acuff:

On the show “Arrested Development,” the character Gob rode around on a Segway all the time. It was a weird way to travel and he was constantly bumping into things in his attempt to be an early adopter of technology. That’s kind of what it feels like when you say, “Please turn in your iPad to the book of Joel.”

I’ve not seen a pastor do this yet. When I do see it for the first time I will probably point and laugh. They’re not ubiquitous enough yet to keep you from looking kinda silly.

“[W]e were talking to Will Arnett. And this is what he said: “Yes, it’s happening.” He went on, but here’s the upshot: there is a script—!!!—but it is not finished; all of the principle cast members are on board, but there is no timetable to actually make the movie. So then we called Mitch Hurwitz to make sure that our ears did not deceive us and that Arnett wasn’t just pulling our leg. They didn’t, and he wasn’t. “Believe it or not, we have started the script,” Hurwitz told GQ. (And by “we,” he means himself and “Arrested” co-executive producer Jim Vallely.) “We’re taking a little abeyance while we get [‘Running Wilde’] up and running. But it is our absolute next priority and we can’t wait to do it.””

“The only thing we are really given a body for is as a way to connect with other people and for swimming. It’s how we touch, or tell people we are smiling, or tell people we are crying, or parallel the connecting of our souls. It’s a sad thing people know they have bodies. It’s a sad thing they believe they are their bodies. It’s a sad lie.”

My buddy Dan writes music and I keep telling him we’re gonna make a music video for one of his songs this summer. It’ll happen eventually. It won’t be this good.

Diego Stocco - Bassoforte (by Diego Stocco)

I keep another super secret mystery blog where I catalogue videos and images from around the net (and the real world) that I find inspirational for work. I was about to post this to that blog but then thought I should share it here.

While it features very tasteful video work, that’s not really the part here that inspires me - it’s the re-purposing of familiar things into something new.

I love music but don’t have a musical bone in my body - so when I see someone else who understands it to the degree that he can tear it down and rebuild it as something else, that’s inspiring!

““The audience can expect things to get much darker as we’ve strayed away from the now saturated honky-tonk based Country and have been really digging in and developed a sound based much heavier on the music in my heart, which is Appalachian Blues, Bluegrass, and traditional mountain string music. There’s a certain dread and forlornness in the music that I feel translates to modern times and the general state of uncertainty in the world. I think the record will serve as a raw introduction and claiming stamp on the Sunday Valley sound.””

Casanova Trailer

Yeah, so this is pretty nerdy. I made this from images from my favorite comic book (which is coming back after a long hiatus) because I’d been wanting to play around with how various companies create motion comics. I did it between actual paying work so it’s a little sloppy in spots. Consider it part practicing my craft and part pure nerdy enthusiasm.

AT-AT DAY AFTERNOON (via PatrickBoivin)

Yes, I loved Star Wars as a kid, yes, it’s a cultural touchstone, but, honestly, most of the fan-made nostalgia for it is kind of boring (Yes, I made a video for church a few weeks ago with light sabers. I’m a bit of a hypocrite). This video, however, is well done and clever.
