Why We Procrastinate

What better way to put off doing that thing you gotta do than watching this nifty book trailer about ... procrastination (Why do you procrastinate? "The problem isn't that you are a bad manager of your time. You're a bad tactician in the war inside your brain.")

From You Are Not So Smart: A Celebration of Self Delusion by David Rainey, as created in kinetic typography format by Plus3 Productions - via FontFeed

"Weird Al" Yankovic - Stop Forwarding That Crap To Me

Music video by 'Weird Al' Yankovic performing Stop Forwarding That Crap To Me.

Our own Koos Dekker was busy with a kinetic typography music video for "Weird Al" Yankovic. "Stop Forwarding That Crap to Me", a part of his new album Alpocalypse, is a "diatribe against sending the narrator useless junk emails". The song got a special treatment with subtle irony, intense visuals and rich color schemes.

Are you human? / CAPTCHAs in Real Life

You probably had to enter it somewhere on a website already; a CAPTCHA code.

A random string of awkwardly placed numbers and characters, to be recognized and entered to verify you really are human. Architect Aram Bartholl (DE) places CAPTCHA codes as tags in the public space. Their strange art of writing makes sure the codes blend in the street view unnoticed.

German artist Aram Bartholl often juxtaposes online life with real life, as seen in his giant Google Maps indicators and actualization of World of Warcraft avatars. One of his recent projects is to place CAPTCHAs — the images of letters and numbers used to prevent computers from creating accounts with online services — in public spaces. Bertholl places them next to graffiti tags because graffiti, like CAPTCHAs, are codes that can only be read by certain people. The project is called “Are You Human?”
