You can learn a lot about someone by the music they listen to. So here is the game! Hit shuffle on your ipod or mp3 player and write down the first 25 songs. No cheating or skipping songs that are shameful. That is the fun! Then tag your friends!
ah whatever,
1) "Gypsy Queens" - Balkan Beat Box
2) "A Distinctive Sound" - Gotye
3) "Mr Grieves" - TV on the Radio (The Pixies cover)
4) "The Way of the Dodo" - The Streets
5) "Taunting Scene (The Rumble)" - from West Side Story
6) "Tij" - Battles
7) "Waving Flags" - British Sea Power
8) "Feedbacker Pt.5" - Boris/Merzbow
9) "The Last Trumpet" - Lyrics Born

14) "Medley: Oh Lady Be Good/S'Wonderful" - from the An American in Paris soundtrack
15) "Le Sacrifice" - The Rite of Spring by Stravinsky
16) "The Money Song" - team9 vs hard fi vs jayz vs abba vs rhcp vs flying lizards
17) "Galanganation (Diplo Mix)" - M.I.A.
18) "Jhout" - Polysics

19) "Valse d'Amour (Waltz of Love)" - Paris Combo

21) "Making Christmas" - The Nightmare Before Christmas soundtrack
22) "D.O.D. (Drink or Die)" - hide

24) "Suite: The Nightmare (Vertigo)" - from an album of Bernard Hermann, the Film Scores
25) "Angus (The Piranha Song)" - Pintandwefall
I've been in the mood for horror these past few weeks.
I finished reading Ted the Caver. It was alright, but I could recognize some of the tricks used in other stories.
thoughts on the story and its rumored veracity;
the original, complete story (pg 14 is where the online version stopped).
Sometimes it's better to leave things unexplained.
also finished Dionea House and its related sites. Also pretty good but I can see the gimmick. I guess, with stories like this, I want something as developed as House of Leaves.
Still, this is creepy: Those who know, we consume.
one of the commenters created a nice name for this genre: docu-horror
ETA: okay, I'm reading more of the connected blog comments and now I'm afraid of doors. what. I should be afraid of one-story houses
via IMDB:
Survive the Outbreak, an interactive zombie movie. Anyone want to try it?
the use of sound in horror film
Some of the best analysis I've seen on the "torture porn" genre, and very concise but informative on the topic of cinematic sound as well.
Zodiac utilizes an interesting technique when the voice of the Zodiac killer is heard over 911 lines. David Fincher and his sound team assembled a vocal track using two different actors’ voices, alternating each word, in order to create an altogether strange, but not unreal, moment.
aww cool.
