Beautiful Ground

'Jed's Other Poem(Beautiful Ground)'Thanks to the oh so quiet show for pointing me towards this unsolicited music video made for Grandaddy's "Jed's Other Poem(Beautiful Ground)". I highly recommend you watch it. As stated by Stewart, the creator of the video, the video was "Programmed in Applesoft II on a 1979 Apple ][+ with 48K of RAM. Seriously." Set to the music, the video is quite beautiful in its simplicity.

Halloween is alive and well in Toronto. Over the weekend the third annual Toronto Zombie Walk occurred. I didn't know there were two previous ones. Oh, well. suckingalemon, photojunkie, Toronto Photography Meetup Group, and the photobin were there and they have alot of fun photos for your viewing pleasure. Apparently, the zombie group made their way to Dundas Square where they stumbled upon a rally for Mothers Against Violence which was taking place. As if on cue, a DJ at the rally started to play Michael Jackson's "Thriller" which initiated an impromptu "Thriller" dance routine. Oh, how I wish I saw that live. For now you can watch the video here. [most of the photo links plus the video link above via BlogTO]
