Self-dipping chicken nuggets are but one of the attractions at the new Banksy installation in New York which is contained in a store called The Village Pet Store and Charcoal Grill. Videos seem to show a great deal more detail, especially the animatronics.

When Let’s Get Killed came out in the late 90s, Irishman David Holmes never got the fanfare and radio play that his contemporaries, like Fatboy Slim, garnered. His quality and talent (especially evident in This Film’s Crap, Let’s Slash The Seats and his Essential Mix compilation) was/is far superior to some of the electronic music that was all the rage back in the day.
Every track on this album opens with sampled sounds and conversations from New York and segues into the music, much like a soundtrack for an imagined movie about the city. All in all, it is a very groovy, eclectic, if disjointed, mix of music. Radio 7 is a standout track and should have really been used in some way in some Bond movie (or parody).
A testament to Holmes’ enduring quality, my friends, must be the fact that he is still producing quality stuff while his contemporaries of the past decade have, to put it mildly, faded.
Michel de Broin is a Montreal/Berlin-based sculptor who made the Death Dead Star. Currently on exhibit at the Eyebeam Center for Art and Technology in New York, this piece is a nice way of recharging the life of wasted batteries, eh?

This is just too damn funny — Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie have to be the two most funniest guys on TV for me right now.
Sitting in the front row for a movie about a Godzilla-like monster wreaking havoc in New York with Blair Witch-style camera work was not really that different from sitting at the last row for a movie about a Godzilla-like monster wreaking havoc in New York with Blair Witch-style camera work.
They should have laced the popcorn with some Emetrol.
