About
'It's that on the surface it says that "the internet is a new form of democracy". So what you're seeing is a new pluralism, a new collage, a new mosaic of all sorts of different ideas that's genuinely representative. But if you analyse what happens, it simplifies things. [Those in social media] are parasitic upon already existing sources of information - they do little research of their own.'What then happens is this idea of the 'hive mind', instead of leading to a new plurality or a new richness, leads to a growing simplicity. Far from being "the wisdom of crowds", it's the stupidity of crowds. Collectively what we are doing is creating a more simplified world.'

Caravan Palace: Jolie Coquine
Electro-swing is great fun. Beats, squelches, augmented ninths, scat vocals, jiving violins, and Django guitars. And Caravan Palace are probably the best band doing it. This video for their song ‘Jolie Coquine’ is also a great piece of stop motion.
Max Sedgeley: Happy
The story of how a cup of tea is made. Set to sunshine funk. Great stuff.
Brett Domino with Steven Peavis: Justin Timberlake Medley
Stylophones, sequencing, iphone drum machine apps, shakers, theremin, cowbells, kazoos, ukelele, recorders and deadpan Yorkshire delivery. Absolutely bloody brilliant.
Avalanches: Since I Left You
Awesome video from the title track of Avalanches’ debut album. Their new record is supposed to be out later this year.
I think I speak for all of us when I say, “Eh?!”. Directed by Peter Serafinowicz, which explains a lot.
Yael Naim feat. Spleen - Toxic (Live)
Sweet jazz / down-tempo-space-age-cocktail-lounge cover of Britney’s song. Gets pretty stormy at about four minutes in.
