Lloyd Stellar's browser-based recreation of the legendary Roland TR-808 drum machine. Dead-simple to use.

Vania Heymann's done a bunch of commercials for Apple and other brands, but it's his music videos that are particularly delightful.

This one for Roy Kafri's Mayokero is 10 years old and, but I don't recall seeing it before. Wonderfully done and a treat for anyone who loves album art.

His most recent video is for A$AP Rocky's Tailor Swif and is co-directed by Gal Muggia:

You're gonna watch it again, aren't you?

Watch this footage of identical twins recounting a carjacking / car accident.

The footage brings to mind a case from half a century ago that's very foggy in my mind. No doubt I'll spend the next few hours / days / weeks trying to recall the details.

What a fascinating world we live in. These women are nothing short of extraordinary.

Next month, top-notch film streamer Mubi will start publishing books under the imprint MubiEditions.

They're taking pre-orders for their first title, READ FRAME TYPE FILM, but obviously this isn't an endorsement as I haven't seen it yet.

Bound to sell out, like all issues of Notebook, a magazine they've been publishing for years now. Each issue is gorgeous and filled with great content.

I've known that Polaroid was reborn out of the Impossible Project, but I wasn't aware that they'd released an instant camera that can be fully manual. This is the Polaroid I-2.

Reviews are pretty positive. Here's YouTuber In An Instant's review: A Generational Camera:

Larry David does an absolutely wonderful job of skewering Bill Maher in this opinion piece in the NYT: My Dinner With Adolf.

But it wasn’t just a one-way street, with the Führer dominating the conversation. He was quite inquisitive and asked me a lot of questions about myself. I told him I had just gone through a brutal breakup with my girlfriend because every time I went someplace without her, she was always insistent that I tell her everything I talked about. I can’t stand having to remember every detail of every conversation. Hitler said he could relate — he hated that, too. “What am I, a secretary?” 

If you're confused as to the context, this is from last week:

I've hated Maher for decades. This feckless horseshit is an excellent example of his dangerous stupidity.

The excellent notes app Voicenotes (iOS, Android, Web) has launched a new feature called Pages which allows users to publish audio notes to a web page where they'll appear in reverse chronological order for anyone with the page address to listen to them. Visitors can also subscribe to a Page and be notified when new content is added. Listeners do not need to have the Voicenotes app.

This is a wonderful service for poets, diarists, or anyone else keen on sharing their thoughts with friends, family, lovers, or other subscribers.

Pages is just an added-on aspect — it's not the app's main purpose, just a very lovely frill. Voicenotes is an comprehensive note-taking app that I use multiple times a day. It's the easiest way I've found to record thoughts and ideas before they're gone.

For now, the app does have a free tier, though I suspect they'll be getting rid of it soon. You can sign up for a monthly or annual subscription and if you sign up with this link, I'll get a small kickback should you decide to become a subscriber. Play with it for 15 minutes and I'll be you'll be hooked.

I always find the videos by Bill Hammack (a/k/a EngineerGuy) explaining everyday items to be fascinating. He consistently manages to explain the complex ideas behind simple items in an understandable way.

Here's one on the common soda can, which he calls ingenious:

And one on the soda bottle ("Masterful"):

Nardwuar does bizarre and entertaining interview with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney. I'm all for it.
