In memory of a legend: Peter Brock

I was deeply sadened by the loss of my childhood hero today, Peter Perfect.
He went out doing something he loves. No complaints.

Making of: New Sony Bravia Ad

Yeah. Blow up those estate buildings. Do it in a million colours. Sure.

My girlfriend feels left out

She made me put this here.
Chicks. Pfft. Typical.
And here's me, trying to have a serious blog.
As if.

Site's that win awards that are shit

like this one:

http://2advanced.com

yay. i love using sites that feel like i'm locked in a vault. back to the good 'ol days of being a gimp.
maybe somebody should remind them that a site needs content, rather than transitions, to create a user experience? tossers.

Everything Is Shit (cont'd)

Just saw this from Saab:

Which is basically a rip of this:

Which is just people getting a bit over excited about this:

Did anyone ever think that no-one actually believes that their car is going to turn into a plane, or talk to you, or save the planet. Some very sad, sad ad people out there. Anyone ever heard of Oedipus perhaps? Losers.

Is It Just Me or Is Everything Shit?

Reading this at the moment: http://www.amazon.co.uk/It-Just-Everything-Shit-Encyclopedia/dp/0316729531

Highly amusing. And I love that it's alphabetised.

It's got me mad about stuff, like:

• Why is it now, that every damned tap in every damned bathroom has to look and work differently? I thought the point of modernism was some sort of rationalisation... Some sort of appreciation that the function alone is beautiful and that form was irrelevant without the right respect for function? But no. Each time I go to someone's house, I have to re-learn how to get access to the damned water... And how to get the balance between hot and cold. When I buy a house, I'm going to make the taps operable only by mind control.
• Wi-Fi... Don't get me started. I love the way there's articles about how wi-fi is going to kill off the mobile phone networks. As if! I've had wi-fi at home for ages and now at work, and it drives me completely mental with all the dropping out and reconnecting. Has anyone ever tried to make a Skype call via a wi-fi network? No? That's cos you can't, you cahnt. Anything continuous is a waste of time - like when i try to FTP website updates for clients. Give me a piece of CAT-5 cable any day.

A cynical ploy by her ad people in the UK to latch onto the coolness of Banksy?
If it's not, I wonder how long it'll be till someone does that.
