My housemate Christopher and I are challenging each other every two weeks to keep things exciting this year.

My first two week challenge of 2010. The challenge: make a lip-sync video to Franz Ferdinand’s “Take Me Out” starring at least 10 people I didn’t know personally.

I started out in Dolores Park, and rocked out with a few fun folks, but after getting a full time job the next day, realized I needed another way to get videos. That’s where Reddit and Amazon’s Mechanical Turk came in. Thanks internet! For free to a dollar, you sent me videos of yourselves a-sing-song.

So here’s the final product, 10 people, 1 cat, and 1 crazy deer.

And also, this new Sigur Ros track from their new album, Med Sud I Eyrum Vid Spilum Endalaust, somehow sums up the past few days:

While this is probably the #1 blog post today in the blogosphere, I thought I’d pitch in as well. At about 10:30pm PST yesterday, I received an email I had been hoping to get for quite some time. (er, 10 days..) w.a.s.t.e sent me a download link, and within a few minutes I was listening to the new radiohead album, In Rainbows. With that said, before I say more, go download it. Pay whatever you want, and go download it.

Once you do though, go listen to it on the radio tonight at 8:30pm on KZSC Santa Cruz 88.1fm. Or online – kzsc.org. Kristan’s new show, aptly named In Rainbows, will be premiering tonight, playing what else – the new album. Some older live tracks too, just to fill up the time. Maybe I’ll put up a review later, but there’s enough of those going around for everybody. Go have a listen.
