Because it’s Friday: Where the Hell is Matt? 2012

Matt has been around since 2006 and millions have watched him dance from country to country again in 2008, others have imitated him.

The original Matt is back with a new version for 2012:

Because it’s Friday: Fabulous Stop Motion

I am repeatedly amazed by the time and energy that people will put into the production of stop-motion video. The following are two of my recent favourites:

Every child imagines what inanimate objects do when they are not being watched – The Joy of Books is a wonderful representation of that imagination.

The Joy of Books

It takes real effort and lots of time to get light drawing pictures right, so to make a stop motion movie with light drawing pictures is simply amazing, but that’s what the team at Oh Yeah Wow have done with Rippled:

Because it's Friday: Time Lapse Views from Space

Last night I was flying back home and the skies were clear. I love to watch the street-lights snaking all over the country accompanied by the movement of vehicles. It’s great fun trying to identify some of the locations as we passed over them.

Returning to a theme from a few weeks ago here are some absolutely fabulous time-lapse videos of the earth taken from the International Space Stations.

I wonder how many places you recognise:

Because it’s Friday: Flying Solo

And I’m definitely not brave enough to fly through an arch in a mountain.

Because it's Friday: Domino Fun

Someone (I can’t remember who) pointed out this Google Chrome Domino cascade the other day:

Google Chrome Falls Down

It reminded me of how much fun we used to have with dominos when we were kids, but we never quite got to do anything as fun as this one from a supermarket somewhere in Finland:
