Zombieland and Sweeney Todd
So, both movies were pretty GD awesome. Zombieland was kind of like an American attempt at zombedy much like Shaun of the Dead put a uniquely British spin on the genre. It’s not subtle. At all. But it was definitely a fun movie, even for those who may not generally go for the Zed word. Partake in the awesomeness of Zombieland and Sweeney Todd

A star is born
Actually, the star was born in 1982, but it shined brightly last Wednesday night at a group performance piece at the Contemporary Art Museum (CAM) in Tampa, Florida.
The exhibition is titled Mash Up and it’s all about the destruction of music. One of the installation/performance/video pieces is by Pedro Reyes, an artist who has staged (now) three opportunities for individuals to jam karaoke-style to their favorite songs, wailing on 1/4″ MDF guitars. At some point during the performance, the participant smashes the guitar, ending the song and looking like a bad-ass in the process.
I got the opportunity to participate (I think there were maybe 17 participants total in the Tampa piece) and will now live on in infamy as a piece of Pedro Reyes’s The New Group Therapies: Part III (Instant Rockstar) which will hopefully travel the world (I know his last two have gone international to some extent).
Here’s a clip from the channel 10 news. I am true to form, with an idiotic sound byte, but then make up for it by being the capstone at the end of the segment.
For those of you keeping track at home, the song I chose was Final Countdown by Europe.
