A Little Artificial Reality Never Did Any Harm
I spent this evening poring over some old DVD and CD backup discs I had made over the years. Some of the things I found I wish I would have left un-found. Others I was surprised to see. Though not complete, it is nearly so, and is therefore fit for remembrance. I give you the original Artificial Reality (the band) Official website of the past!
Music to program to
I am a huge fan of Digitally Imported. There is just nothing like a constant stream of really good techno, trance, etc… to keep me in the “zone” for extended periods of time. That is why I provide you all with this lovely advertisement. No, I am not getting paid to say it. My buddy Mark, who is also a programmer has admitted to listening to DI.fm when he codes as well. So I think it is a matter of public service for me to be informing the uninformed about DI.fm. Here is a lovely banner ad:

Awesome YouTube Video
I saw that this video was recently Slashdot-ed. Check it out! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JzqumbhfxRo. Remember this guy does not know how to play either instrument!
He was basically just messing around recording him self hitting the drums and playing notes on the piano. The audio was spliced together in FruityLoops and then the video sequenced back in. None of the audio was changed except for the timing. It is truly a nice work of art ;) The song is pretty sweet too!
