Wow. Huge collaboration.

This video is put together by 172 communications students from the Université du Québec à Montréal. It's pretty amazing that when working with such a large area they were able to all get to their proper places and play their correct roles.

I think it'd be pretty cool if WSU's communications department worked together to create some large project. We have a strong communications program so it would hopefully be achievable, and doing so would help to create some positive national attention for the school (not just about the H1N1 "Swine" flu, or focused on WSU being a party school).


Reminds me of one of my favorite music videos ever, also made by students, for the rapper Nyle. This one is more well made but didn't rely on as many different people having to remember what to say:

Late of the Pier- Space & Woods

I was looking through some old bookmarks I have (in a nearly endless folder dedicated to music) and I found this video which I saved to my bookmarks last Spring. It's a decent song and some really cool effects are used.

Track of the Week #1

Each week during my show I will play a song that I'm featuring as my "Track of the Week", it will be played around the 5pm middle mark of my show. Also each week I will be posting the song on the Crimson Culture blog along with a link to download the track if you like it.

The first track of the week is:




"Battle Hymn of the Republic" by Eef Barzelay (This is the download link)

This track is featured in the Indie Comedy Rocket Science and is a cover/remake of the old hymn by the same name. Not trying to get religulous on you guys, but I just like the musicality of the song more so than the content.

Enjoy.

Heatseekers

I now have a radio show on WSU's student radio station, KZUU 90.7 FM Pullman. My show is called "Heatseekers" and is from 4-6pm every Thursday. Listen to me either on 90.7 FM if you're in the local Pullman area, or you can listen to the radio station streamed online live at kzuu.wsu.edu

The name "Heatseekers" comes from the name of the Billboard Charts for up and coming artists, because even though the show is all indie music, my goal is to try and play all songs that have a pretty widespread sounding appeal and so someone who may only typically enjoy Top 40 should hopefully still enjoy a lot of what I play.
