Aaron Keigher’s time-lapse video titled “Move”, about a world that never stands still

I’m in the middle of processing the pics taken at the eOne Music Canada & Gibson Guitars CMW party which was held on Sat May 09. Managed to get some pics posted to the Facebook page of eOne Music Canada and on the Facebook page for Canadian Music Week. Will prepare a post here, later this week.

This morning I happened across an amazing time-lapse video by Photog Aaron Keigher. It is called “Move“. This video took tons of works to complete. It also features a superb sound track. Extraordinarly Creative work by Aaron Keigher.


Aaron had posted his video on Vimeo under a Creative Commons license and so I’m happy to share his incredible video below.

A-Z of Dance. Fantastic video directed by Jacob Sutton for i-D fashion magazine and DIESEL jeans

Visiting the Dancing Astronaut Facebook page, I watched a neat video which they had posted May 02 2015, on their Timeline.

So I did some research and found the source video. It’s title was “A-Z of Dance“. This video had been directed by Jacob Sutton and was produced for i-D fashion magazine and DIESEL – the Italian Jeans manufacturer.

DIESEL is a wonderful story about Renzo Rosso ( an Italian farmers son) who had a great idea. Click on this line to read the typicaly superb Forbes article titled: “Blue Jean Billionaire: Inside Diesel, Renzo Rosso’s $3 Billion Fashion Empire”. Yes, from farmers son to a member of the Billionaires Club.

Magic TV. Yet another superbly executed Silvio Santos prank video


Silvio Santos is a Brazilian TV show. They also feature pranks which are often extremely well thought out and produced. I find their Câmera Escondida prank videos are hilarious and rather addictive.
Today’s Silvio Santos Câmera Escondida video features a Sales guy in a Television Sales Area (not unlike what you might find at a place like Best Buy). The Sales Rep invites customers to sit down and watch a presentation showing off the wonders of a brand new Magic TV. The actor playing the TV Sales Guy is great, as is his timing.

Wish that the TV show Silvio Santos could be available up here in Canada. Much Thanks goes out to YouTube for hosting the SBT Online Channel on YouTube. Hope you all enjoy another laugh.

Guitar solo from Pink Floyd’s Comfortably Numb played effortlessly by Tina S.


Believe or not, she is only 15 years old.

Tina S plays guitar with extraordinary technical ability, while making it look so effortless.

Video is courtesy of the Tina S YouTube channel

One thing that is rather unique about this Tina S version. She does not use the Tremelo Bar / Vibrato Arm at all. She creates a similar effect by pulling and pushing the guitar strings. Check out YouTube for videos of David Gilmour playing Comfortably Numb, to see and hear what I’m talking about

Click on this line to visit the Tina S Facebook page.

Her Guitar teacher has been Renaud Louis-Servais. Click on this line to visit his YouTube channel

You can also find Tina S on Twitter.

Video is courtesy of the djlogic937 YouTube channel


Compared to other Christmas Lights Displays, this one only uses under 18,000 lights. Tons of time was taken creating a custom sound mix and then syncing the Christmas Lights to the music. The result is true Eye  Candy!!!


The home owner has set up a website called “Light Show Bro”, where he details his Christmas Lights Display and is willing to help others who would like to set up their own Christmas Lights Display.


This show runs during the following schedule: 5:30pm, 6:00pm, 6:30pm, 7:00pm, 7:30pm, 8:00pm, 8:30pm, 9:00pm, 9:30pm, 10:00pm. Last Show date will be December 31 2014.


When visiting his website, make sure to visit his “Media” page where there videos and interesting photos of some of his wiring and other gear.

The 2nd video will start after the first one is finished playing. That 2nd video details how to build a Pixel Tree.
