Ce que j'en tire comme conclusions:
Avec 200 millions de dollars, tu peux tenir 158 minutes.
Avec 200 millions de dollars, tu peux casser toute la planète. Mais alors toute.
Avec 200 millions de dollars, il te reste même un peu d'argent pour construire deux arches de Noé qui tiennent la route.
Avec 200 millions de dollars, tu peux faire verser des larmichettes au coeur d'artichaut que je suis, si tu y mets la vie de deux enfants en jeu, et l'extermination de toute la planète en fond musical.
Avec 200 millions de dollars, tu peux redonner envie de fumer à tout plein de gens, parce qu'après tout, ton scénard est probable.
Mais avec 200 millions de dollars, tu ne restes que le 2ème film le plus cher de toute l'histoire du cinéma à ce jour :O
Automatic posting from my Twitter Account:
- 06:39 Up very early this morning (4:30) - sleep pattern goofed up I think from yesterday's sedation (slept lots late yesterday)
- 06:42 Now just waiting till 7:00am when I can go to Macrina and treat myself to an apple-pecan muffin.
- 08:36 A bit irritated that Chase OFX interface is down this weekend for "upgrades." I would guess most folks update finances over weekend.
- 18:29 Here' s the problem when a city girl marries a farm boy - packing when you're visiting both families.
- 18:33 We do this every year and the packing never gets any easier.
A nice article appears on Monitor Mix Blog about the effects of balancing, sanitizing, and loudifying the music we listen to. I think some similar conversations were had re: dynamic range when vinyl began to be replaced by tape. You know how all the songs begin to sound the same? You know how monotonous pop music becomes? Yeah. Perhaps we need to leave in the (very human) mistakes. Artists and engineers need to work together to make the product, and not work at cross-purposes to satisfy the suits and bean counters.
Celui là est garagiste et véliplanchiste. Celle ci est oeunologue et à moitié couverte sur ses photos. Cet autre est étudiant et aime Radiohead. Celle ci est artiste et alcoolique. Cet autre est web deux zéroeur et basta. Cet autre ne parle que de musique tandis que celle là ne parle que de ses enfants. Chez cet autre encore, on peut trouver tout sur la politique, et un peu de WoW.
Personne n'est forcé d'ajouter une dimension virtuelle à sa "vraie" vie.
Les personnes qui ont ouvert un compte de partage en ligne, l'ont fait volontairement, et ce qu'elles y partagent, c'est ce qu'elles veulent bien partager. Certains seulement une facette, d'autres plusieurs.
Nous ne connaissons que les facettes que l'on veut bien nous montrer.
Finalement, un peu comme dans la vraie vie.
Les gens que l'on cotoie au travail, dans les magasins, ou à l'entrée du cinéma, ne nous montrent qu'une seule facette d'eux: Celle du responsable marketing, à l'aise dans son boulot, celle de la boulangère, visiblement pas heureuse dans son boulot, ou celle de la caissière souriante du Gaumont. Seulement la facette qu'ils veulent bien nous montrer.
Mais dans le cercle intime, dans la vie familiale, au quotidien du quotidien, alors le compte de partage est différent. On aperçoit les autres facettes de la personne... y compris celles qu'elle ne voudrait pas forcément partager ;)

Such a nice night for mid-November at the 400 Bar. Athletes in Slacks (myspace) warmed up the crowd with their laidback loungey harmonizing sound that only two keyboarders and a guitarist can produce. The band claims all their songs are about love, except later on their hour-long set, they introduced a song about hating two guys from New York. They did finish strong with a cover of INXS's "Never Tear Us Apart", and that's what really matter.
The first time I heard about Swedish band Little Dragon, was in January. Ceji was really into them. Since we generally like Swedish bands here, I did try and keep up with their whereabouts. As it turns out, they're in the middle of their tour through the US to promote their sophomore album, Machine Dreams. Although the band's been here already, they confessed last night that this was their first time in Minneapolis.
They didn't do Ceji's favorite "Recommendation" song, but I though hands-down their best song played was "After The Rain", complete with an amazing ending.
From what I heard from their live set, their new songs seems to drifts from the R&B and Jazz influence to more electro and beats. I think the combination works well for them, especially since I like their big beats/electronica sound.

I've been to a lot of shows lately, and I can tell you that this was one of the best shows yet. They're heading their way to the East Coast, so definitely check them out. If they're not heading through your city, you should check out Machine Dreams, out now on Peacefrog Records.
